North Korea agrees to expand tourism with Hyundai

The agreement was reached following Saturday's meeting in North Korea between the North's leader Kim Jong-il and Hyundai Group executives including the group's chairwoman, Hyun Jeong-Eun, Hyundai said in a statement. 

Under the agreement, Hyundai would open new tour routes to Mount Paektu, which straddles the North's border with China, and to Kaesong City, just north of the heavily militarised border between the two Koreas.
