“I will make sure not to interrupt your sleep anymore”, Kim said.
All eyes were on Kim when he crossed the border to reach South Korea on Friday morning at the Demilitarized Zone of the border. However, Kim played smart and before crossing over to South as he held Moon’s hand and took him over to the North side first. After that they came over to the Southern side.
In the visitors book, at Peace House, Kim won hearts as he wrote: ‘history starts now; age of peace, from the starting point of history'.
Kim also said that he is willing to visit the Blue House in Seoul. Blue House is the official residence of the South Korean President.
The meeting is taking place on the southern side of the truce village of Panmunjom.
North’s nuclear arsenal is the primary agenda of the summit, which is intended to pave the way for the forth-coming meeting between the North's leader Kim Jong-un and US President Donald Trump. It is pertinent to note that US is building a pressure on North Korea for denuclearisation.
Kim is accompanied with his sister and close adviser Kim Yo Jong and the North's head of inter-Korean relations.
Kim has become the first North Korean leader to set foot in the South since the Korean War ended 65 years ago. The meeting is third of its kind since the end of the 1950-53 Korean War.
It is the second time Kim Jong -un has crossed the borders of North Korea. Earlier, he went to China to meet President Xi Jinping.
It was in January during winter Olympics in South Korea when the two countries marched under one flag. The move was hailed as the first step towards normalization of ties between the countries. It was then at the initiation of the South Korean president Moon Jae-in that Kim agreed to hold the historic bilateral summit in April.
