청와대 "북측이 김여정 부부장 보낸 것에 주목해야"
Earlier this week, the North Korean leader's sister, Kim Yo-jong,... went to the inter-Korean border at Panmunjom... to offer her condolences for the passing of former South Korean First Lady Lee Hee-ho.
The Blue House says that gesture by the North is worth paying attention to.
When asked Friday about the possibility of an inter-Korean summit happening in June, a senior Blue House official said Kim Yo-jong's visit is symbolic and carries exceptional meaning, which he said the Blue House is taking special note of.
The North had said Lee Hee-ho's wish for peace and unification should be honored by the two sides,... a statement the official said can be interpreted as a desire for dialogue and peace.
