South Korea and the U.S. held working group talks over North Korea issues in Seoul on Monday, with U.S. State Department official Alex Wong attending the talks amid a prolonged halt in negotiations with Pyongyang.
Seoul's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) did not indicate if the two sides discussed the issue of North Korean tourism -- a topic which the South Korean government has been pushing in the new year -- but it appears that inter-Korean cooperation was one of the topics addressed in Monday's meeting.
