South and North Korean representatives failed to reach an agreement on resuming inter-Korean family reunions as they met for a second round of talks on the issue today. However, they promised to meet again on October 1 for further discussion. The two sides held the meeting in the border town of Kaesong, led by the Red Cross. According to South Korea's Ministry of Unification, the two sides, after day-long disputes, failed to narrow differences as the North insisted on first resuming tours to the Mount Kumgang resort that had been suspended for more than two years.
