The top nuclear envoys of South Korea and the U.S. have held three meetings on the sidelines

of the UN General Assembly to discuss North Korea issues.

The South Korean mission to the UN, Lee Do-hoon, the foreign ministry's representative for

Korean Peninsula peace and security affairs, met with Stephen Biegun,... the U.S. Special

Representative for North Korea from Wednesday to Thursday.

The two reportedly evaluated the recent inter-Korean summit in Pyeongyang, the bilateral summit

between Presidents Moon and Trump... and exchanged views on how to accelerate the denuclearization

process.

They also talked about U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo's planned visit to Pyeongyang

next month and even the proposed second Trump-Kim summit.

The meetings were held after Pompeo revealed he invited North Korean officials to meet

Biegun in Vienna at the "earliest opportunity."

Now... to another black eye and PR disaster for Facebook.

The social media giant is reporting on a major security breach (a hack... ) that exposed

the personal information of nearly 50 million Facebook users.

The company said Friday that attackers were able to exploit a security flaw in a feature

known as "View As" to grab control of people's accounts.

The breach was discovered on Tuesday and Facebook says police have been alerted.

Facebook, which has more than two billion active monthly users,... would not say where

Chinese Foreign Minister calls on U.S. to reciprocate North Korea's denuclearization efforts - Duration: 2:15.

Let's start at the UN General Assembly...

It was China's turn to take to the podium to deliver its keynote speech.

Beijing's top diplomat Wang Yi welcomed North Korea's moves toward denuclearization and

said the onus is now on the U.S. to start make some concessions of its own.

Hwang Hojun reports.

He noted the situation between the two Koreas has seen a quote 'major turnaround,...'

"China encourages the DPRK to continue moving along the right direction of denuclearization."

But in essence, he said the road to peace, is a two way street.

"We believe it is also right for the United States to make timely and positive responses

so as to truly meet the DPRK halfway."

Such remarks from the Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi came during his speech at the 73rd

UN General Assembly on Friday local time.

This wasn't the first time Wang has asserted the U.S. should make more concessions; it

was just a day ago at the UN Security Council meeting that Wang said the "end of war" declaration

by the U.S., which will officially cease hostilities from the Korean War, would help build trust.

Wang did say, however, that China will continue to honor the sanctions against North Korea

implemented by the UN Security Council,... but for now.

"China calls upon the Security Council to take timely actions in light of the development

and changes of the situation to create more favorable conditions for a peaceful settlement."

China, being North Korea's largest ally has been accused by Washington for violating the

UN sanctions against Pyeongyang.

Wang also took an indirect jab on President Trump's notion of protectionism-over-globalism,...

which Trump touted earlier in the week,... insisting it will only bring damage to all.

On President Trump's blasting of China for its trade practices that he claimed create

an intolerable trade imbalance,... and then defending his trade war against Beijing, Wang

responded that China will quote "not be blackmailed or yield to pressure."

As the annual multilateral forum is heading to its end, North Korea's Foreign Minister

Ri Yong-ho will take to the podium to deliver a speech on Saturday morning local time.

Korea's oceans ministry opens 'return-to-sea schools' to cultivate new workforce - Duration: 1:26.

Some people in Korea are choosing to move away from cities and return to farms or fishing

villages.

To help these people and provide new opportunities, the oceans ministry has opened the nation's

first "return-to-sea school."

Park Se-young has more.

This man had operated cranes at a shipyard for the last ten years, …until his company

closed down.

In search for a new way of life, he went to a so-called "return-to-sea school."

After about two months of theoretical education and hands-on learning with onsite experts,

the former shipyard worker now looks more like a fisherman.

The Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries has opened Korea's first "return-to-sea school" to help

people settle in fishing villages, and has attracted 21 people aged from in their 20s

to in their 60s.

The students can choose their desired field after experiencing a range of options like

fishing, fish farming and fish processing.

"By providing hands-on training and in-depth education, we can help people succeed and

reduce the probability of failure."

Following the first school in Gyeongsangnam-do Province, two more schools are set to open

in Chungcheongnam-do Province and Jeollanam-do Province.

The schools aim to provide more people with new opportunities and bring energy to aging

fishing villages.
