The inter-Korean working-level talks on cross-border tours will be held on Monday as scheduled. In a press statement, Seoul's Ministry of Unification on Saturday said South Korea and the North exchanged the list of delegates yesterday and the Seoul side decided to attend the talks. According to local media, Kim Nam-shik, Director General of the Unification Ministry's inter-Korean exchange bureau, will head the South's delegation, while its counterpart will be led by Kim Ryong- song, senior councilor of the Asia-Pacific Peace Committee handling the inter-Korean ties. North Korea in early January proposed to hold talks on resuming tours on January 26, but the South Korean government suggested pushing the date back to February 8.
