Koreas set out to defuse military tension

[1] Following a hard-fought breakthrough, the two Koreas began taking steps Tuesday to defuse tension on the peninsula, as the South halted anti-Pyongyang broadcasts along the border as of midday and the North lifted its “quasi-state of war” and was seen reinstating some frontline military forces.

* following~: ~이후에 (=after ~, *on the coattails of~: ~직후에. * in the aftermath of~: ~의 여파로)

[2] The broadcasts and wartime declaration came to an end at noon, hours after the two sides clinched a six-point agreement in which Pyongyang displayed regret over a recent land mine blasts in the Demilitarized Zone and ensuing wounds on two South Korean soldiers in return for Seoul’s conditional cessation of loudspeaker operations.

[3] They also agreed to hold formal talks in Seoul or Pyongyang “at an early date” to explore ways to mend their ties and have a working-level meeting in early September to arrange a fresh round of reunions of separated families in time for the Chuseok holidays at the end of the month. The announcement followed 43 hours of negotiations that kicked off Saturday.

* formal: 정식(<->informal)
* mend ties: 관계를 회복하다 (유의어: build a bridge between A and B: A와 B 사이의 화해의 물꼬를 틀다, get over the past: 과거 일을 극복하고 화해하다, reach out to~: ~에게 화해의 손길을 내밀다

* distilled spirits: 증류주
* spirit: 영혼

* grab onto: ~를 움켜쥐다
* homeland: 고향

[4] The supply ship contains about 15,000 kg of cargo, including the six liquor samples. Suntory Global Innovation Center in Tokyo wants to see if alcoholic beverages mellow the same in space as they do on Earth.
