남북정상회담 준비에 분주한 도라산 CIQ와 킨텍스 MPC

Thousands of people from the local and foreign press are getting ready for tomorrow's big event.
That includes reporters from the station you're now watching.
They're going to be getting as close as they can to where the leaders will be meeting near the inter-Korean border.
And at the main press center, they're setting up temporary studios for their live coverage.
Our Park Hee-jun takes us to the key media sites. Just a couple of kilometers from Panmunjom,... the Dorasan Checkpoint is bustling with activity in preparation for the inter-Korean summit.

Also referred to as the Customs, Immigration, and Quarantine Office of South Korea,... the Dorasan Checkpoint in Paju, Gyeonggi-do Province is just south of the demilitarized zone separating the two Koreas.
It's the office that manages the arrivals and departures for people crossing the inter-Korean border,... and is where North Korean VIPs and athletes passed through in order to attend the PyeongChang Winter Olympics.
And it's also very close to the site where South Korean President Moon Jae-in and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un will meet on Friday.

Many major media outlets are here finishing up their final touches for the big day.

"It's been quite hectic here at the Dorasan checkpoint for the past few days,... as journalists, officials, and staff members are getting ready for the moment the leaders of the two Koreas meet for their long-anticipated summit. And on the eve of such a momentous event,... Arirang TV is ready to bring live minute-by-minute coverage to the entire world."

The Main Press Center,... located at the KINTEX exhibition hall in Goyang, northwest of Seoul,... is also busy with last-minute preparations.
More than 28-hundred media personnel-- from both the local and foreign press-- have registered to cover the inter-Korean summit.
And come Friday,... all eyes will be on how the historic inter-Korean summit unfolds at Panmunjom.
