SEOUL - SEOUL'S Unification Ministry says North Korea has agreed to let South Koreans back across the border to work at factories at a joint industrial zone in the north.
Ministry spokesman Lee Jong-joo says the North relayed a message saying it will allow cross-border traffic to and from the Kaesong complex.
The full reopening on Tuesday comes four days after Pyongyang shut down the border last week, stranding hundreds of South Koreans who work in Kaesong and live in South Korea.
The North partially reopened the border on Monday but only for South Koreans leaving the north. -- AP
