North Korea's Red Cross on Saturday proposed to its Southern counterpart to hold a fresh round of temporary reunions for separated families for Chuseok, the Korean harvest holiday falling on Sept. 22, at Mt. Geumgang Resort in the North, the North's official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported.
”The two sides had a good precedent of relieving separated families of their pain and promoting family relations through reunions of families and relatives on Chuseok before,” said Chang Jae-eon, chief of the North Korean Red Cross Society in a letter sent to Yoo Chong-ha, head of the South Korean Red Cross.“Let’s arrange a meeting of separated families and relatives at Mt. Geumgang Resort in the North around Chuseok this year, too.
The two sides also arranged a session of reunions of separated families from Sept. 26-Oct. 1 last year on the occasion of Chuseok.
