North and South Korea agreed to resume talks on reopening on the Gaeseong industrial complex, a crucial source of hard currency for Kim Jong Un’s regime, two weeks after similar negotiations collapsed.

The South accepted North Korea’s offer of working-level talks at Gaeseong to be held Aug. 14, Unification Ministry spokesman Kim Hyung Suk told reporters in Seoul. Along with the offer, made in a statement carried by the official Korean Central News Agency, North Korea said it would send its workers back into Gaeseong.
