Leading ROK presidential candidate to visit N. Korea if elected

Moon Jae-in also calls for immediate reopening of Kaesong Industrial Complex, postponement of THAAD

South Korean presidential hopeful Moon Jae-in would visit North Korea as a top priority should he win next year's presidential election, Moon said during an interview on Friday.

Moon, who is hoping to run next year as the Minjoo Party's candidate, also highlighted the need for the immediate resumption of activities at the Kaesong Industrial Complex (KIC), the inter-Korean business complex closed by Seoul after Pyongyang's long-range rocket launch in February.
