Today, 15 officials from the South Korean private firm Hyundai Asan are visiting North Korea's Mount Kumgang... where they used to run tours for South Koreans.
They're going to pay tribute to the firm's late former chairman, Chung Mong-hun, who's recognized by the North as a figure who stood at the forefront of inter-Korean economic cooperation.
Hyundai Asan spearheaded both the tours to Mount Kumgang and the inter-Korean Kaesong Industrial Complex... until both of those projects, in their turn, broke down.
Pyongyang's been complaining about Seoul enforcing international sanctions on it... and has urged Seoul to resume the tours and the factory park.
A key question is whether that will be brought up by the North with the officials from Hyundai.
