In 1994, the U.S. and South Korea were on the brink of war with North Korea, as the two countries were convinced that North Korea was moving to develop nuclear weapons. President Carter and former First Lady Rosalynn Carter were invited by then-President Kim Il Sung to visit North Korea to help defuse the volatile situation. 

In June 1994, President and Mrs. Carter became the first people to cross the demilitarized zone from South Korea to North Korea and back again since the two countries were divided following the Korean War.
