The area is characterized by mountainous terrain, rich forest resources and a continental monsoon climate with long, cold winters and short, cool summers. The local economy is based on forestry and a small amount of agriculture, growing hardy crops such as potatoes and corn, and the area is home to natural attractions such as Gojoseon Lake, which is one of the most important water sources in the DPRK. As a border area, Jajang-gun is strategically important, and the local population maintains a simple lifestyle based on traditional agriculture and forestry.
