North Korea wants South Korea to send 300 delegates to an inter-Korean celebration in Pyongyang on June 15th.

A member of the Seoul preparatory committee for the event on Tuesday reported the results of three-day talks on the matter in Pyongyang.

Nine committee members went to Pyongyang Saturday to discuss the North's demand for a smaller delegation.

In Beijing, committee chairman Baek Nak-cheong said he is not satisfied with the meeting's results, but the two sides have compromised for the sake of continuing inter-Korean exchanges.

Meanwhile, the event's overseas planning committee has accepted the North’s demand to cut its delegation from 300 people to 100.

If Pyongyang’s latest proposal is accepted, the size of the South’s delegation will fall to 400 civilians, government officials and overseas ethnic Koreans from almost one thousand original agreed on.

The Seoul preparatory committee will hold a news conference in Incheon International Airport upon arriving from Beijing.
