Pyongyang said Wednesday it will restore a hotline with the South at 0630 GMT, after Seoul proposed high-level talks in response to Kim Jong-Un's calls for better relations and suggestion his country might attend the Winter Olympics.

Kim also welcomed Seoul's support for his overtures, a North Korean official told state television.

In his New Year address, Kim warned the US that he has a "nuclear button" on his table, but extended an olive branch to the South, saying his country might take part in the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics next month.

Time to send in some food, medicine and some European doctors to make the people of NK happy, then in 3-6 months it will be back to normal.

I don’t really know.

I was following the story on a website for a while. But then apparently the guy running the website went to sleep, and the people running it didn’t know more.

It hasn’t impacted prices (in either direction) of anything basically, so I don’t think this is a real big story now.

Seems a phone call may have been made, and a communication like may have been established, but I haven’t seen so many words to that effect yet.

The North Korean Olympic team only needs one way tickets. There is no way they go home.
