The whole world is talking about it, and now it's just a day away.
For the first time in eleven years, on Friday the leaders of the two Koreas will hold a
bilateral summit.
We now connect live to our very own Hwang Hojun, who's part of the Panmunjom Press Pool,
and is at the main press center in Goyang, just north of Seoul.
Hojun, with all the attention this summit is getting, the press center must be absolutely
packed by now.
Devin, you're absolutely right.
Thousands of reporters and media personnel from Korea and abroad are here at the Main
Press Center anxiously preparing for the historic meeting between South Korean President Moon
Jae-in and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.
As you said, this is the first summit meeting in 11 years.
It's the third overall; the first two took place in 2000 and 2007.
Around this time last year, people were talking about Korea being on the brink of war, but
now, in drastic contrast, more hopeful thoughts are emerging of reconciliation.
So, considering the rocky path the two Koreas have gone through, it's easy to understand
the hype here at the press center.
As of Tuesday, two-thousand-eight-hundred-and-fifty reporters had registered to cover Friday's
event.
And the press center has also made on-site registration available so we can safely assume
the total number of reporters will reach 3000.
Yes, the excitement over there is apparent even watching here from the studio.
We know from your reporting that the South Korean presidential office has been doing
everything it can to make sure that the summit tomorrow goes off without a hitch.
That's right.
As a matter of fact, the summit preparatory committee carried out its last and final run-through
today.
It was the final check-up with implementing necessary changes the committee found during
Tuesday's rehearsal, in which they inspected every detail,... from the paths people will
take,... all the way down to the furniture inside the building.
Less than half an hour ago, the Blue House spokesperson confirmed the final rehearsal
went smoothly and that South Korea is ready to host the North Korean leader tomorrow.
According to the Spokesperson, 6 out of the 7 officials who will accompany President Moon
tomorrow attended the final rehearsal and ran through the entire program and inspected
even the smallest detail.
And this time, there were two body doubles for President Moon and Kim Jong-un.
There were a couple rehearsals in the past two days as well.
The two Koreas held a joint rehearsal yesterday.
Now Hojun, it was kept under wraps for a little while, but this morning they released a detailed
schedule for the summit tomorrow.
That's right, and we finally have a set time for the historic meeting between the leaders
of the two Koreas.
According to Presidential Chief of Staff Im Jong-seok,.... heading the summit preparatory
committee, announced this morning that the two leaders will first meet at 9:30 am Korean
Standard Time at the border village of Panmunjom.
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un will cross the Military Demarcation Line between the
Military Armistice Commission T2 and T3 buildings, becoming the first North Korean leader to
step onto South Korean soil in over 60 years He will be greeted by South Korean President
Moon Jae-in and the two will then walk together towards the Peace House and receive a guard
of honor, as part of the official welcoming ceremony.
Now when they enter the building, Kim Jong-un will sign the guest book on the first floor.
And starting at 10:30, the summit meeting between Moon and Kim will take place on the
second floor of the Peace House.
The leaders will have lunch separately.
In the afternoon, the two leaders will plant a ceremonial pine tree on the military demarcation
line, in recognition of their historic meeting,... also laying a keystone that reads (quote)
"Here we plant peace and prosperity."
After taking a short walk together to the MDL signpost, engaging in some friendly conversation,...
they will then will sign and announce a statement of agreement, but the format and the location
of the signing haven't yet been determined.
Starting at 6:30 pm, a welcoming dinner in honor of the North Korean leader will take
place.
And the historic day will end with a farewell party.
Im also noted the top agenda items at the summit are the denuclearization of the Korean
Peninsula and the establishment of permanent peace.
However he stressed that it's hard to know for sure how much of an agreement President
Moon and Kim Jong-un can reach and how such an agreement can be stipulated.
