North Korea factory zone block
Description
PLEASE NOTE: EDIT CONTAINS CONVERTED 4:3 MATERIAL
North Korea rarely turns its sights on the Kaesong joint industrial park.
On Wednesday it did just that.
South Koreans turning up at the border to go to work were blocked from crossing.
Those already on the other side of the world's most heavily militarised border were allowed to leave.
One clothing factory boss was worried about the impact.
(SOUNDBITE) (Korean) SOUTH KOREAN MANAGER OF CLOTHING FACTORY IN KAESONG INDUSTRIAL ZONE, LEE EUN-HAENG SAYING:
"It will cause a problem for inter-Korean relations, and it will also risk my business. I'm very worried as things are getting worse and will be hard to restore."
Such delays are rare at the complex.
It generates two billion dollars a year for the North and 80 million in wages that go straight to the government.
South Korea's unification minister called on Pyongyang to restore access.
