Cheque clears, everyone happy now.
The two Koreas had been locked in tense negotiations in an abandoned village on the peninsula's border after regime leader Kim Jong-un declared a "quasi state of war" on Friday.
But at 2am local time it was revealed the crisis talks had ended with both sides agreeing on a truce.
For its part, South Korea promised it would cease blaring out anti-Pyongyang propaganda from loudspeakers at noon on August 25.
The gesture is said to have triggered this week's violent tensions on the peninsula and led to an exchange of artillery fire earlier this week.
North Korea added that it would lift its "quasi war status" and both sides are said to have agreed on working to reunite families separated in the Korean war.
