Kim Jong Un Moon Jae-in

North Korea's Kim Jong Un and South Korea's Moon Jae-in agreed on Friday to seek an end to the armistice agreement and sign a peace treaty, as well as achieve "complete" denuclearization.

But it's not the first time leaders from the two countries have met.

Former North Korean leader Kim Jong Il met with former South Korean President Kim Dae-jung in 2000 and former South Korean President Roh Moo-hyun in 2007. Both times, the two leaders meeting in Pyongyang, North Korea's capital.

While the latest talks might yield better results, the over-arching announcements aren't too dissimilar to those made at the last two summits, which, in the end, achieved little.

And the pictures highlight the similarities:
