South Korea has begun a project to reconnect a severed inter-Korean railroad.

Government officials said a groundbreaking ceremony to launch the project was held at Baengmagoji Station in Cheorwon, a border town north of Seoul on Wednesday.

Under the project, the southern government will restore the Gyeongwon Line which links Baengmagoji and Woljeongri Station, the railway's northernmost station in the South.

Speaking at the ceremony, President Park Geun-Hye said the project will be the very starting point of moving towards reunifying the divided Korean Peninsula.

The original 223.7-kilometer Gyeongwon Line used to link Seoul's Yongsan Station with the North's eastern city of Wonsan. But it was suspended in 1945 due to the Peninsula's division and damaged during the Korean War.
