Kan Hyeong-woo reports.
The people from the two Koreas will soon be able to cross the border at the Joint Security Area for the first time in over four decades.

The two Koreas and the UN Command are expected to finish the process of disarming the JSA in the Demilitarized Zone on Thursday.

In accordance with the inter-Korean military agreement signed last month, the three sides will remove guard posts and firearms from the JSA,... hoping to reduce tensions and prevent accidental clashes.

Starting Friday, the two Koreas and the UN Command will carry out a two-day joint inspection to ensure the complete disarmament of the JSA.

After a pilot period and more detailed measures to prevent defectors are implemented, not only Korean visitors but also foreign tourists will be allowed to cross the Military Demarcation Line between 9 AM and 5 PM.

The two Koreas will station 35 soldiers including five officers from each side for surveillance purposes,... but they will only wear yellow armbands that read "Panmunjeom Civil Police" and they won't carry firearms.

The South and North conducted a 20-day joint demining project at the JSA from October 1st.
The two Koreas and the UN Command verified the clearance of land mines on Monday at their second three-way meeting.

Since two American soldiers were killed by North Korean personnel in the JSA in 1976, crossing over the Military Demarcation Line in the area had been strictly forbidden.
