North and South Korea families reunite

More restraints coming off from NK. Rare that they allow these reunions.
SEOUL —Nearly 90 South Korean families crossed the heavily fortified border into North Korea on Monday to be reunited with elderly relatives they had not seen since being separated in the chaos of war nearly seven decades earlier.
Brothers, sisters, cousins, nephews and nieces cried and embraced each other in the first family reunions to take place in three years, a symbol of thawing ties across the Korean Peninsula.
Some relatives could not even recognize each other, but that was not a problem for 88-year-old Kim Byung-oh and his 81-year-old North Korean sister Kim Soon Ok, who were separated while still at school.

That's a touching photograph. No one should have a smirky word to add to this thread. This is a good thing happening on our planet.

Takai is Japanese. I know this because he tells us that Trump is going to start up internment camps again.

To be fair, I think this is an event that they've done in the past but was suspended for the last 3 years due to deteriorating diplomatic relations

Kudos for ABC in highlighting other ' related ' stories..
Chimp- human reunion
Salvadoran mom reunites w/ son... no ulterior motive there, huh ABC ? ( Looks to me the kid didn't even know his 'mom' in that video. Wasn't thrilled in the least, as one would expect. )

It clearly states that in the article that this is an ongoing program since 1985.
They still foolishly believe many of the actions of N Korea are unprecedented .
