A group of officials from the Korea Tourism Organization and Hyundai Asan will visit North Korea’s Mount Geumgang resort for two days starting Wednesday.

A Unification Ministry official said Wednesday that it approved a request submitted by Hyundai Asan, the main operator of tour programs to the North’s Mount Geumgang resort, to visit the communist state.

The group is reportedly comprised of four officials from Hyundai Asan, three officials from the Korea Tourism Organization and 12 officials from Hyundai Asan’s partner firms that do tourism business at the mountain resort.

The visit comes after Pyongyang notified Seoul last week that it would launch an investigation into real estate held by South Korean firms operating at the mountain.

Out of the group, three officials from the Korea Tourism Organization will leave for the North on Wednesday and will stay until Thursday to respond to Pyongyang’s summons.

The remaining 16 officials of the group will depart for the mountain resort on Thursday morning.

Last Thursday, the North summoned all South Korean owners of Geumgang property to the mountain resort, threatening that if the owners fail to gather at the resort by 11 a.m. on Thursday, the North would confiscate South Korean properties.
