Hundreds celebrate emotional reunions with their loved ones

Hundreds of Koreans began three days of reunions on Tuesday with loved ones whom many had not had contact with since war divided the peninsula more than 60 years ago.

Some of them were in wheelchairs or leaning on walking sticks, and most were overcome by tears, laughter and shock.

About 390 from the Republic of Korea traveled to the scenic Mount Kumgang resort in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.
