Sili Bank (sili meaning "true profit" in both Chinese and Korean) was established on September 12, 2001.[1] Through its operation centre in Chilbosan Hotel in Shenyang, China, it offered a limited email relay service to and from North Korea, where Internet access was and is scarce. It initially charged a fee per every email sent.

The Chilbosan Hotel has also served as a centre of North Korean computer hacking and cyber-warfare operations.[2][3]
