Thousands of cheering North Koreans waving pink paper flowers and a military honour guard bearing rifles with bayonets heralded the leaders' first encounter outside a cultural hall in the North Korean capital, where Roh travelled some three and half hours by road from the South Korean capital, Seoul. The two leaders walked down a red carpet where Kim, wearing his typical khaki military jumpsuit, introduced Roh to top North Korean leaders. Kim appeared reserved and unemotional, walking slowly and occasionally clapping lightly to encourage the crowd. Neither made any public comment before Roh got back into his armoured limousine to travel to the state guesthouse where he is staying for the summit that runs through Thursday. Roh was then accompanied on a journey around the capital by North Korean titular Head of State Kim Yong Nam, and was cheered by North Koreans, who lined the streets. Kim Yong Nam was expected to be his guide for the rest of the day, as meetings with Kim Jong-Il were scheduled for Wednesday. Before leaving Seoul earlier in the day Roh, who leaves office in February, said he would build on the achievements from the first North-South summit in 2000 and "hasten the slow march" in reconciliation between the two countries, which remain technically at war since the 1950-53 Korean War ended in a cease-fire. Hundreds gathered at the South Korean border city of Paju City to bid a final farewell to Roh's delegation. During the journey by road to Pyongyang, the South Korean President and his wife Kwon Yang-sook, stopped and walked across a yellow plastic strip with the words "peace" and "prosperity" written on it and laid across the Military Demarcation Line that divides the Koreas in the middle of the heavily fortified Demilitarised Zone. "As a president, I'm crossing this forbidden line this time. After I'm back I do hope that more people will follow suit, and then this forbidden line will eventually and gradually be erased," said Roh. Later in the day Roh held talks with Kim Yong Nam at the Mansudae Assembly Hall in the North Korean capital. South Korean officials have declined to give specifics on what Seoul seeks at the summit, given the unpredictable nature of talks with North Korea. They have sought to play down expectations, asserting that simply having any meeting is valuable. This week's summit comes almost exactly a year after the North tested a nuclear bomb, rattling regional stability and leading to a dramatic turnaround in the previous hard-line U.S. policy toward its long time rival. Since then, Pyongyang has shut down its sole operating nuclear reactor that produced material for bombs and has tentatively agreed to disable its atomic facilities by year-end in a way that they cannot be easily restarted. Roh acknowledged on Tuesday that ridding the North of nuclear weapons and establishing a peace treaty could not be realised by the two Koreas alone. Pyongyang has participated in international talks including the US and other regional powers on its nuclear programme that were set to reconvene on Tuesday. A peace agreement to end the Korean War would require participation of the US and China, which also fought in that conflict.
