By turning the Korean Peninsula into a permanent peace zone, we will now be able to restore normalcy in our lives.
Our society can be reshaped into a nation that exists solely for the people as we depart from the privilege, corruption and disregard for human rights that have been spawned by the threat of war and ideological confrontation.

The South and North agreed today to eliminate all risks that could lead to war from all parts of the Korean Peninsula.
A joint inter-Korean military committee will be formed to enable constant consultations on implementing military-related agreements. Even though the sounds of artillery fire of the Korean War were silenced by the 1953 Armistice Agreement, war has continued to haunt our lives for the past 65 years.
