Three Korean Americans imprisoned in North Korea will be released before or during the upcoming summit of U.S. President Donald Trump and North Korean communist dictator Kim Jong Un, according to Korean media Naver.

The prisoners have already been moved from a forced labor camp to a hotel outside Pyongyang and are undergoing a “course,” where they are receiving treatment and are being “educated,” a North Korean source told Choi Sung-ryong, representative of the families of the prisoners.
