Be Sure the Survivors Stay Buried

The South  Korean government is going all out to find the remains of its  Korean War dead

The Defense Ministry has set up a task force to retrieve and identify the remains of the dead from the 1950-53 Korean War, officials said Wednesday.

The team of 85 is modeled after the U.S. Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command. Its mission is to excavate remains and identify them through DNA analysis, they said.

Col. Park Sin-han, chief of the team, said they would start work soon.

I wonder how much South Korea will pay into the Taepodong Fund for each set of remains it recovers in the North.
