Today is another big day of diplomacy on the Korean Peninsula.<br />High-level delegations from South and North Korea are meeting at the border village of Panmunjeom right now... to hammer out the details of their highly-anticipated leaders' summit slated for late April.<br />Let's go live to our Oh Jung-hee, who's standing by at the Office for Inter-Korean Dialogue.<br />Jung-hee.<br /><br /> Good morning, Mark.<br />High-level delegations from Seoul and Pyongyang, just now, made their way into the conference center.<br />The talks -- the second high-level talks, in fact -- the first were held back in January -- have started just now.<br />They are taking place at Tongilgak -- a building located on the North Korean side of the truce village of Panmunjeom.<br /><br /> Seoul's delegation left the Office for Inter-Korean Dialogue at 7:30 this morning.<br />They left a brief remark to the press.<br />Take a listen.<br /><br /> "We will do our best in our discussions with the North today... to successfully hold inter-Korean summit talks scheduled for late April. Thank you."<br /><br /> The delegation said that the date of the summit will be set for certain through today's meeting.<br /> They added... they'll continue to focus on denuclearization in future discussions,... stressing that it's been the most important agenda... since the January 9th high-level talks and the several comings-and-goings over the past three months.<br /><br /> The delegations are made up of three officials from each side.<br /> The South Korean delegation is led by Unification Minister Cho Myoung-gyon...<br /> and the North Korean side is led by Ri Son-kwon, chairman of the North's Committee for Peaceful Reunification.<br />The two headed their delegations during previous high-level talks back in January.<br /><br /> Jung-hee, so what can we expect from this latest round of talks? There must be some things both sides are looking to discuss today.<br /><br /> That's right, as I mentioned... the main objective is to set the agenda and the date for the summit next month.<br />South Korea's summit preparation committee has three big tasks for now -- denuclearizing the Korean Peninsula, building an ever-lasting peace with lowered tensions,... and finally improving inter-Korean relations.<br />So, we're expecting Seoul and Pyongyang could exchange opinions on these three things.<br /> But especially as today's talks come hot on the heels of Chinese President Xi Jinping and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un's meeting in Beijing,... we could hear more from the North on that as well.<br />Kim reportedly told Xi that denuclearization has always been his ancestors' teaching and is therefore the regime's goal.<br />So we could hear some specific steps that the regime is going to take on its path to abandon its nuclear weapons.<br /> Also, just as the unification minister said,... the date for the summit is expected to be determined.<br />As for now, the 26th or 27th of April are considered the most likely dates.<br />The location of the summit has already been set as the Peace House on the South Korean side of the border village of Panmu
