> South Korea will restart work on a railway section that may eventually connect with Wonsan in North Korea. The Unification Ministry announced the move on Wednesday. The project had been halted for a decade as relations with Pyongyang remained frozen. Its revival brings the long-stalled cross-border rail plan back into focus.
