South Korea president Roh Moo – Hyun has cross the
DMZ between North and South Korea for the first
time. On 2000, President Kim Dae – Jung has flew to
North Korea but did not cross the DMZ boarder. Mr.
Roh mentioned that the goal is to keep the peace
between those two countries. Since 1953, Korea was
divided into North and South, they cross the DMZ
boarder which made the huge wall between two
countries. Mr. Roh also mentioned that “This line is a
wall that has divided the nation for a half-century. Our people have suffered from too many
hardships and development has been held up due to this wall,” before crossing the boarder.
When Mr. Roh arrived to the Pyongyang the capital city of North Korea, thousands of people
were welcoming, also, President of North Korea Kim jung il was welcoming the Mr. Roh. The
security was perfect and there was emergency jet. The talk between two president was about
the Nuclear weapons and keeping the peace. I believe that Mr. Roh crossed the DMZ is very
meaning to the both citizens that one day DMZ boarder will be gone and become united. Also,
President Kim Dae jung got a Novel prize for the peace keeping with North Korea. As same as
Mr. Roh should get Novel prize.
