SEOUL - The last batch of seven citizens of the Republic of Korea will return home from the Kaesong Industrial Complex in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) at around 5:30 pm local time on Friday, Yonhap News Agency reported.
"Since the North side (DPRK) reached agreement on the settling of accounts and other issues with South Korea, our last seven people are scheduled to return home today at 5:30 pm," the Agency reported, quoting an official of the South Korean Unification Ministry.
The DPRK rejected Seoul's talks offer for Kaesong Industrial Complex last Friday. Following DPRK's response, ROK decided to withdraw all their workers in Keasong, which is the last symbol of inter-Korean economic cooperation.
