We begin tonight with the Lee-Trump summit. The two leaders' first face-to-face largely centered around Korean Peninsula and North Korea issues among others. Our top office correspondent Yoon Jung-min starts us off. Much of the focus at the Oval Office meeting was on resuming dialogue with North Korea, as President Lee Jae Myung met his U.S. counterpart Donald Trump on Monday. "When Kim Yo-jong condemned the U.S. and me lately, she said that she has no doubts about Chairman Kim Jong-un's special relationship with you.

It's seen as a sign that they are waiting. I hope you usher in a new path for peace on the Korean Peninsula." "I will do that, and we will have talks, and he'd like to meet with me." Saying that he wished to see a Trump Tower being constructed in North Korea and play golf there, Lee asked Trump to play a "peacemaker role" for peace on the Korean Peninsula, and Trump expressed his hope of meeting Kim Jong-un this year. The American leader touted his personal ties with Kim, saying they get along "really well." When asked whether he will be attending the APEC Leaders' Meeting later this year in Korea, he said he expects to visit Korea soon for a trade meeting. On top of that, according to President Lee's National Security Adviser, the two leaders agreed to cooperate on the shipbuilding industry and had "meaningful" discussions on nuclear energy cooperation.

When it comes to "modernizing the alliance," "We're adjusting specific phrases, but there's a broad consensus." He added that South Korea aims to strengthen joint defense security through modernizing the alliance, hinting at a hike in Korea's defense spending. With regard to Trump mentioning that he wanted to ask Seoul for U.S. ownership of the Korean land used by U.S. forces stationed in Korea, Wi added that he needed to find out the background behind such remarks. With the Lee-Trump summit concluded, eyes are now on how North Korea's Kim Jong-un will respond to their calls for dialogue, with the inter-Korean ties still looking frosty.
