We have waited nearly 50 years since the Korean Armistice Agreement that brought the fighting to a close was signed in 1953, so this should have been big news.
It's conditional on the US ending its "hostile attitude" - but Trump already did that in 2019, before the 2020 November elections that led to the Joe Biden inauguration in January 2021.
Given the parlous state of US politics one might be forgiven for thinking that this condition may not in practice be long in the fulfilment, although you wouldn't notice from the press reports and the BBC article.
My guess though is that if Kim Jong Un hadn't noticed, then the agreement would never have got to this point.
