Abai Village was formed when refugees from Hamgyeong Province fled south during the Korean War and were unable to return home after the armistice. They settled on a barren stretch of beach near the ceasefire line and gradually built houses, creating a small but vibrant community that still preserves traces of its North Korean heritage.
