North Korean leader Kim Jong Un sent flowers and a message of condolence on Wednesday for the funeral of former South Korean first lady Lee Hee-ho, whose late husband held a historic summit with Kim’s father in 2000. Senior South Korean officials traveled to the border village of Panmunjom to receive the wreath and letter delivered by Kim’s sister, Kim Yo Jong, a senior official of North Korea’s ruling party, who called for the Koreas to honor Lee’s legacy with further cooperation, a South Korean presidential official said. Lee, the wife of late South Korean President Kim Dae-jung, died on Monday at 97.
