The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) on Tuesday repatriated a South Korean citizen through the border village of Panmunjom.
The 34-year-old South Korean, identified only by a surname Suh, was returned from the DPRK to South Korea via the border village at 11:00 a.m. local time, Seoul's unification ministry said in a statement.
The DPRK's Red Cross informed South Korea Monday of its plan to repatriate Suh, who was caught on July 22 after illegally entering the DPRK.
