South Korean President Moon Jae-in will meet with the sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un later this week.
Presidential spokesman Kim Eui-kyeom says Moon will have lunch on Saturday with North Korea s delegation to the PyeongChang Winter Olympics, whose members include Kim Yo Jong, a senior member of the North s ruling Workers Party and a key advisor to her brother, and Kim Yong Nam, the regime s ceremonial head of state.
Kim Yo Jong will be the first member of the North s longtime ruling family to visit the South since the end of the 1950-53 Korean War.
Saturday s lunch will cap a recent round of diplomatic overtures between the bitter rivals sparked by President Moon s acceptance of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un s surprise offer to send his country s athletes to the PyeongChang Olympics during a New Year s Day speech.
The large North Korean delegation will arrive in Seoul Friday in time to attend the Games opening ceremony that night.
