"At present, inter-Korean relations are at a critical juncture, and our government won't be swayed by individual incidents," Lee said at a meeting held at the presidential office, calling for sticking to the existing DPRK policy stance.

South Korea should keep up with its firm, consistent policies towards the DPRK in order to take initiative in the inter-Korean relations, including the DPRK's nuclear program issue, the presidential office explained.

Lee also commented on the death of six South Koreans caused by the DPRK's sudden discharge of dam water, calling it "lamentable. "

"The incident gives us a call how the DPRK's moves are closely related to our daily life and security," the president said.

He also stressed the importance of resuming inter-Korean dialogue at the government level, saying fresh progress in inter-Korean relations will come once both parties come to the dialogue table with sincerity.
