North Korea, South Korea Agree to Talk About Stalled Joint Factory Operation

At Kaesong, just north of the DMZ

North and South Korea have agreed to a new round of talks next week on a stalled factory complex after Pyongyang appeared to meet a key concession demanded by Seoul.

The North's Committee for the Reunification of Korea on Wednesday offered to hold talks on August 14 on the Kaesong industrial complex, which lies just north of the demilitarized zone separating the two Koreas.
