South Korea's state-run broadcaster KTV will provide live broadcasts of inter-Korean family reunions next week.

The last inter-Korean family reunions were held in October 2015 under the Park Geun-hye administration. After the Korean War (1950-53) separated millions of families, South and North Korea held the first reunions in September 1985.
In the first round of the event (Aug. 20-22), 93 people from South Korea will meet family members at a resort on Mount Geumgang in North Korea. In the next round (Aug. 24-26), 88 people from North Korea will meet family members from the South on Mount Geumgang.
According to the Ministry of Unification, 87 percent of the South Korean participants are 80 or older.
