North Korean leader Kim Jong-un left Pyongyang early Friday to attend the inter-Korean summit in Panmunjom, the truce village on the north-south border of the peninsula, according to North Korea state media.

South Korean President Moon Jae-in and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un are holding their first summit meeting in the South Korean border village of Panmunjom on Friday. 

Kim will become the first North Korean leader to cross the border onto the South Korean soil since the end of the 1950-53 Korean War.
