North-south Summit 2000

North and South Korean families divided since the Korean War said a tearful final farewell today, wrapping up a rare reunion that was clouded at the last by a maritime border spat.

Several hundred mostly elderly South Koreans headed for North Korea on Tuesday for a rare, emotional meeting with relatives they have either never met or last saw more than six decades ago.
