North Korea on Wednesday accepted the list of South Korean journalists chosen to cover the dismantlement of its nuclear test site.
The list of journalists including four from a newswire and four from a broadcaster was revealed through a communication channel.
"We expect that this will serve as a starting point for accomplishing complete denuclearization as swiftly as possible through the U.S.-North Korea summit and talks at various channels," the ministry spokesman Baik Tae-hyun was quoted as saying by Xinhua.
The spokesman said that the journalists will be flying on a state-owned. He added that foreign journalists will be traveling in a charter flight from Beijing to Wonsan, and will be offered a special train to the nuclear test site.
Ahead the most awaited meeting between N Korea leader Kim Jong-un and U.S. President Donald Trump in June, North Korea vowed that it would close its Punggye-ri test site and halt nuclear weapons and missile tests.
The ceremony will take place somewhere between May 23 and 25.
