It has been proved through history that the national unity is the only reasonable and patriotic way for the Korean nation divided into two over more than half a century to carve out the way to national reunification and prosperity and demonstrate the national dignity and honor, the article says, and goes on:

It is a prerequisite to achieving the national unity that all Koreans in the north and the south transcend the differences in ideology, political view and ism.

Insistence on one's own ideology and ism will never help achieve the great national unity and mend the inter-Korean relations.

This year marks the 15th anniversary of the historic June 15 joint declaration as well as the 70th anniversary of Korea's liberation.

It is the good way of achieving the great national unity that the north and the south significantly hold national common events and reunification events among those of different social standings to boost the spirit of reunification movement.

They should activate multilateral contacts and exchanges including the sports and cultural events to re-link the severed ties and blood vessels of the nation and give impetus to achieving the great national unity.

All Koreans as well as the authorities in the north and the south should turn out in the movement to achieve the great national unity, being aware of their positions and roles as the masters of national reunification.
