Almost 400 South Koreans armed with cold medicine, winter coats and U.S. dollars will cross the world’s most heavily fortified border Tuesday for an event most never dared hope would happen: a meeting with their North Korean relatives.

It’s part of rare, cross-border contacts begun decades ago and now perhaps a last chance for many as the war-era generation reaches their 80s or older.
