The leaders of North and South Korea will hold their second-ever summit this month, the South’s Yonhap news agency reported today.
Leader Kim Jong Il of the North and President Roh Moo-hyun of the South will meet Aug. 28-30 in Pyongyang, North Korea’s capital, Yonhap said.
In June 2000, Kim met then-South Korean President Kim Dae-jung in Pyongyang.
The nations remain technically at war because the 1950-53 Korean War ended in a cease-fire, but the 2000 meeting led to economic cooperation projects and family reunions.
