North Korea agrees to take South Korea aid

 This article talks about North Korea taking aid from south Korea for the first time in two years.  There was a   large tropical cyclone in North Korea.  There were 48 dead and over 21,000 homeless after the storm hit in Late August.  The article states that South Korea were the first to contact North Korea offering aid through the Korean Red Cross, North Korea later accepted.  North Korea is said to have accepted food aid from a private agency.

     I personally believe that this is a huge step forward for both North and South Korea.  The fact that these two countries are still at war and are working together for the safety of the citizens in North Korea speaks volumes.  I believe the best part of the whole article is how it states that South Korea was the first to reach out to North Korea, they clearly saw that N Korea were in some serious need for help and really stepped up to the plate.  I think that this is the first step in repairing the two countries "friendship".
