KNRC to convene committee on NK visits

The Korea National Red Cross will finalize on Aug. 4 the list of 100 visitors who will visit North Korea on Aug. 15 to meet their separated family members there.

Park Ki-Ryun, secretary general of the KNRC, said on Aug. 1 that the KNRC will select the 100 visitors on Aug. 4 because the South and the North are scheduled to exchange lists of the visitors, reporters and officials on Aug. 8.

The North is expected to notify the South of whether family members of the South`s 62 candidate visitors are still surviving in the North around Aug.2, Park added.
