Working-level military officers from South and North Korea held a meeting on Thursday to discuss details of the operation of two sets of cross-border railways and adjacent roads.
At the one-day meeting, the two sides discussed ways to improve overland passage to the industrial complex under construction in North Korea's border town of Gaesong and to the North's Mount Geumgang.
During Thursday's meeting, Southern delegates suggested that the two sides resume general-level military talks in the near future.
Today's meeting, which came after a three-month suspension in inter-Korean military dialogue, took place at the two sites of rail and road construction along the Military Demarcation Line.
Pyongyang had boycotted military talks with Seoul since July to protest the South Korean navy's firing of warning shots toward a North Korean vessel off the west coast.
