A group of 100 South Koreans will be making a trip north of the border on this Tuesday for inter-Korean basketball games set for this week.
Seoul's Unification Minister Cho Myoung-gyon is heading the group -- comprised of five government officials, 50 male and female basketball players, 30 members of the press, and 15 staff.
They'll leave from Seoul Air Base at 10AM -- in about three hours from now.
The two Koreas will play four games in total -- two games each on Wednesday and Thursday.
It's been decided that national flags or anthems won't be used.
It's also believed the unification minister could meet various senior figures in Pyongyang, including leader Kim Jong-un.
The group will fly back to Seoul on Friday.
