South and North Korea agreed Monday to hold two-day, high-level talks in Seoul later this week, but they failed to hammer out exactly what should be discussed and who should head the delegations from both countries, a Seoul official said.
"The South and North Korean delegations agreed to each send five representatives to the talks to be held in Seoul on Wednesday and Thursday," Chun Hae-sung, the head of the Ministry of Unification's policy setting office, said in a press briefing that followed the marathon 17-hour working-level talks between the two Koreas. The North agreed to send its negotiators across the land border, he said.
