It is in the Kwanbuk region , and location of the Rason Special Economic Zone.

In October 2014 South Korea authorities said they planned to bring 35,000 tons of Russian coal through North Korea’s Rajin Rason port in the next month. Three South Korean companies - KORAIL, POSCO and Hyundai Merchant Marine - will work on the North Korean project, which South Korean authorities hope will link the country to the trans-Siberian railway.<ref>[http://www.nknews.org/2014/10/north-korea-south-korea-russia-to-cooperate-on-coal-shipment/ "North Korea, South Korea, Russia to cooperate on coal shipment,"] NK News, Oct 15, 2014</ref>
