The body of Park Wang-ja...SEOUL-A North Korean soldier gunned down a 53-year-old South Korean woman tourist who wandered into a military area at a mountain resort in the North in the predawn hours of Friday, a South Korean official said.The woman identified by her family name Park, was killed in an incident that comes as ties between the two states have chilled since a new South Korean president took office in February promising to get tough with Pyongyang.Park was strolling on a beach and entered a fenced-off North Korean military area near the Mount Kumgang resort, just north of the border on the east coast, and was shot in her torso and leg by a sentry, the official said.South Korea will halt tourism to the resort from Saturday, Unification Ministry official Kim Ho-nyoun told a news conference."We expect the North to take appropriate actions, as this is a regrettable incident," Kim said. South Korean President Lee Myung-bak also called the incident "regrettable."The resort, opened in 1998, is run by an affiliate of South Korea's Hyundai Group and has been visited by more than a million South Koreans.Park is the first South Korean tourist killed by a North Korea since Kumgang opened and the first South Korean shot dead since a deadly naval skirmish in the Yellow Sea in June 2002 that killed North and South Korean sailors, the ministry said."(The ministry) needs to confirm reports of whether the women climbed the fence," Kim said.
