My favorite pair of earbuds' connecting plug is starting to rip. unfortunately i won't be able to take this with me on travel anymore :( it's a Yuin PK-1.

Is there any way i can repair this myself? the black shielding that connects to the mini plug got disconnected, and the exposed wires that connect to the mini plug dont look like they can withstand that much more wear.
