The second round of the eleventh inter-Korean reunions of separated families at the North's Mount Geumgang has entered its second day.

Some four-hundred-30 South Koreans are meeting around one-hundred of their long-lost kin from the North whom they haven’t seen for nearly half a century.

The family members will later attend a luncheon before visiting Samilpo Lake located in Goseong county.

The Southern group will wrap up its three-day visit and return home on Wednesday.

On Sunday, the first group of 99 South Koreans returned from the North's mountain resort after reuniting with their North Korean relatives.

The whereabouts of some 23,000 separated relatives from both Koreas have been identified, with 670 of them believed to have exchanged correspondence.
