The correct answer is: the Korean Peninsula was divided along the 38th Parallel after World war II.
Currently the border is moved slightly(rather to the north) and the border is know as the Demarcation line - it's also no longer straight, as it was when it was the 38th parallel.
Both of them are the most important cities in their countries. They are capitals and cultural, demographic and industrial centres.
South-South-East, to be more precise - 150 degrees
