A South Korean man has been arrested for attempting to cross into North Korea for a second time, telling police that he made the attempt “with reunification in mind” and to contribute to peace between the two sides.
The man in his 20s has been accused of illegally entering a military zone by crossing a barbed-wire fence in the border city of Paju around 11 p.m. last Wednesday, before a military official on site apprehended him and handed him over to the police, the Gyeonggi Bukbu Provincial Police told NK News on Monday.
