Hundreds of South Koreans will hold individual reunions with their long-lost relatives in North Korea Monday on the second of day of reunions.
Earlier on Sunday, a 471-member Southern delegation, including officials and reporters, met with one hundred separated family members from North Korea in a two-hour group reunion at the Onjonggak pavilion at the North's Mount Geumgang. The reunions were followed by a welcoming dinner and individual reunions.
The group had arrived at the Haekumgang Hotel in the North's scenic mountain resort earlier in the day after leaving Sokcho in the South's Gangwon Province to cross the inter-Korean border.
The latest family reunion is the tenth since the historic inter-Korean summit in 2000.
