Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4 is set in Korea, in a fictional war. Under the real border lies a real tunnel, 73 meters down.
How the Third Tunnel of Aggression was found in 1978: not by a map, but by water jetting out of an old borehole.

Simplified
– The hill, rock and tunnel are a compressed diorama, not to scale; depths and lengths are labelled with the real numbers.
– The 1975 drill (second tunnel, central sector) and the 1978 search near Panmunjom are shown as two neighbouring blocks.
– The counter-tunnel and the borehole are drawn schematically; the tunnel’s real slope is about 5 degrees to the north.
