韓國總統文在寅將會見朝鮮領導人金正恩的妹妹
South Korean President Moon Jae-in will meet with the sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un later this week.
Presidential spokesman Kim Eui-kyeom says Moon will have lunch on Saturday with North Korea's delegation to the PyeongChang Winter Olympics, whose members include Kim Yo Jong, a senior member of the North's ruling Workers' Party and a key advisor to her brother, and Kim Yong Nam, the regime's ceremonial head of state.
Kim Yo Jong will be the first member of the North's longtime ruling family to visit the South since the end of the 1950-53 Korean War.
Saturday's lunch will cap a recent round of diplomatic overtures between the bitter rivals sparked by President Moon's acceptance of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's surprise offer to send his country's athletes to the PyeongChang Olympics during a New Year's Day speech.
The large North Korean delegation will arrive in Seoul Friday in time to attend the Games' opening ceremony that night.
韓國總統文在寅本周晚些時候將會見朝鮮領導人金正恩的妹妹。
韓國總統府發言人金宜謙說，文在寅星期六將同參加平昌冬奧會的朝鮮代表團共進午餐，代表團成員包括金與正，她是朝鮮執政黨資深官員，也是她哥哥的主要顧問。參加餐會的還有朝鮮政權的名義國家元首金永南。
金與正是1950-1953朝鮮戰爭結束以來，朝鮮長期執政家族到訪韓國的第一位成員。
星期六的午宴將這兩個對手之間最新一輪的外交姿態推向高潮。朝鮮領導人金正恩在新年致辭中首先提出派遣運動員參加平昌奧運會，韓國總統文在寅對此予以了響應。
這個龐大的朝鮮代表團星期五將抵達首爾，參加當晚舉行的冬奧會開幕式。
