U.S. President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un will meet at the...

SEOUL - U.S. President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un will meet at the Demilitarised Zone between the two Koreas on Sunday, raising hopes for a revival of stalled nuclear talks.

Most infamously, axe-wielding North Korean soldiers in the DMZ in 1976 murdered two American soldiers who were cutting down a poplar tree to secure a clear view.- The DMZ marks where the 1950-53 Korean War - when China and North Korea battled U.N. forces led by the United States - ended with an armistice, not a treaty.

- After a third summit between the two Koreas in September, the two sides withdrew firearms from the JSA and cut the number of troops back to the original 35.
