Turning now to Sunday's big meeting between North Korea and the United States,... on the return of the remains of American soldiers who are still unaccounted for from the Korean War.
The talks appear to have went well,... with some concrete results made on the search and return of the remains.
Park Hee-jun reports.
North Korea and the U.S. have agreed to resume joint field operations to search for the remains of more than five-thousand American troops who were killed during the Korean War,... a result of their meeting on Sunday at the inter-Korean border.

Following the meeting,... U.S Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in a statement that the talks were "productive and cooperative" and resulted in firm commitments.
U.S. President Donald Trump also took to Twitter to hail the progress being made with North Korea.

The repatriation of American soldiers was one of the agreements reached during the Kim-Trump summit in Singapore in mid-June.
Talks to implement the agreement were originally planned for Thursday last week,... but were delayed after the North Korean representatives failed to show up.
They later called the UN Command, asking to reschedule for Sunday,... and to involve military generals, which resulted in the first general-level military talks between the two sides in nine years.

And on Monday, working-level talks are set to take place to iron out the details of the repatriation,... including the transfer of remains that have already been collected in North Korea.
Citing an unnamed U.S. official,... CNN reports that the two sides are aiming to transfer the remains of some 200 American troops within the next two to three weeks.
The U.S. already has one hundred wooden caskets waiting at Panmunjom,... to carry the soldiers' remains back home.
