MANILA, Philippines – A group of North and South Korean families held a final farewell Saturday, February 22, after being briefly reunited for the first time since the 1950-53 Korean War.

Many of the participants broke down and sobbed as they clung to each other. (READ: South Koreans head for bittersweet family reunion in North)
