North Korean officials will attend an international conference this week in South Korea.

According to the South Korean Foreign Ministry, the North will send four officials from its Foreign Ministry to the ASEAN Regional Forum's seminar on cyber terrorism, which runs from Tuesday to Friday in Busan.

Pyongyang has rarely sent officials to conferences in South Korea, except for inter-Korean meetings.

The North Korean delegation will arrive in South Korea by airplane via Beijing and will stay in Busan during the entire conference.
