Officials from South Korea and North Korea were set to hold a second round of talks Wednesday to discuss details of a summit to be held between their leaders next week.

The working-level talks were set to take place at the joint security area of Panmunjom inside the demilitarized zone, also the venue for the summit between South Korean President Moon Jae-in and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un slated for next Friday.

Wednesday's meeting seeks to discuss protocols and security measures for the leaders, in addition to the means and scope of media coverage of the historic event, officials from the presidential office Cheong Wa Dae said.

Cheong Wa Dae chief of staff Im Jong-seok said Seoul was seeking to allow live broadcast of the inter-Korean summit.

The upcoming summit will be the third of its kind held between the divided Koreas. However, it will mark the first time for a North Korean leader to set foot on South Korean soil as it is scheduled to be held on the South Korean side of the heavily-fortified DMZ.
