The South Koreans are wise to bring their own foodstuffs, given that North Korea imports so much from China.

On top of that, I’d feel guilty/sickened eating anything produced in North Korea.

I did not know the ROK is bringing stuff for the party. Man, Kim does not even have to feed them. He has it good.
This whole thing makes me want to puke.
Seriously.

I agree. One positive point is that South Koreans don’t appear to be nearly as giddy as they were in June 2000.

Looks like the DMZ crossing was not a big hoopla. Ah well. That will change once Roh hits Pyongyang and Kim goes to greet him. I am not sure how it will all pan out though.
