Eight South Korean journalists are headed to North Korea after the reclusive regime gave a last-minute approval for the group to observe the dismantling of its nuclear test site.

The South Koreans were supposed to have joined a group of foreign journalists from the United States, Britain, China and Russia Tuesday on a flight from Beijing to the North Korean city of Wonsan Tuesday. But Seoul says the group did not make the flight after Pyongyang declined to accept them.

South Korea's Unification Ministry says the journalists were finally accepted by the North Wednesday through a message sent by a cross-border communication channel at the truce village of Panmunjon. The eight journalists are taking a special flight directly to Wonsan, and travel from there to the Punggye-ri test site in a remote mountainous region.

The Punggye-ri site, where North Korea has conducted all six of its nuclear tests, is scheduled to be dismantled between Wednesday and Friday, depending on weather conditions.

孤立于世的朝鲜政权在最后一刻批准8名韩国记者前来观察核试验设施的拆除。这些韩国记者已经启程前往朝鲜。

韩国记者原定于星期二与美国、英国、中国和俄罗斯的记者一道从北京乘飞机前往朝鲜的云山市。但是首尔说，这些韩国记者星期二没能上飞机，因为平壤拒绝让韩国记者前来。

韩国统一部说，韩国记者最后星期三获得了朝鲜的批准。朝鲜通过板门店停战村的跨边界联络渠道发来了批准的信息。这8名韩国记者乘坐直飞朝鲜云山的专机，然后从云山前往位于偏僻山区的丰溪里核试验场。
