South Korean President Lee Jae Myung has called for North Korea to resume reunions for families separated since the Korean War. His comments come as part of a broader call for humanitarian cooperation between the two Koreas.
Lee made the appeal during a meeting with South Koreans who have relatives in the North, urging for a reduction in hostility and a return to collaborative efforts.
The appeal was made just before the thanksgiving holidays, a time when family traditions and reunions are of significant importance, adding emotional weight to the president's request.
