It turns out North Korea's international tour agency in charge of the Mount Geumgang resort uploaded a post last week promoting tours to the mountain.<br />It came shortly after North Korean leader Kim Jong-un ordered officials to talk with South Korea and remove Seoul's facilities there, saying they spoil the scenery.<br />The agency stressed that tours should contribute to preserving the mountain's natural beauty... and the ecology at the mountain is extremely well taken care of.<br />Analysts say the move shows the North's intent to run its own tour program and make full use of the mountain.<br />Seoul proposed working-level talks to discuss the removal of the facilities and tours as a whole, but the North rebuffed the offer.<br />
