Next Wednesday... President Moon Jae-in will embark on a one-day trip to Tokyo to attend the 7th trilateral summit with China and Japan.
When he does, the liberal leader would have completed presidential visits to South Korea's four most powerful partner nations.
Moon Connyoung explains further.
South Korean President Moon Jae-in will have completed presidential trips to all four of his country's most powerful partner nations - namely, the U.S., China, Japan, and Russia - in the first year of his presidency when he touches down in Japan next week to attend the 7th South Korea, Japan, China trilateral summit.
The president's economic adviser, Kim Hyun-chul told reporters on Friday that the trilateral meeting on May 9th, the first to be held since November 2015 due to frosty relations between member
countries, will serve as a venue for the South Korean leader to bring up to speed Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and Chinese Premier Li Keqiang on the outcome of the inter-Korean summit and potential plans to implement the ambitious objectives laid out in the Panmunjom Declaration released last Friday.
The three leaders are expected to issue a special declaration endorsing the inter-Korean summit and the landmark Panmunjom Declaration... which reaffirm the two Koreas' commitment on denuclearization and establishing lasting peace on the Korean Peninsula.
Moon, Abe, and Li will also attend a business summit to encourage more business between the three countries... after which the leaders of South Korea and Japan are expected to hold a separate bilateral summit followed by a luncheon hosted by the Japanese prime minister.
The agenda of the trilateral summit will encompass various regional issues, ranging from tackling fine dust and bringing down international roaming rates to ongoing diplomatic engagement with North Korea... so that the three sides could better coordinate policy ideas.
President Moon's bilateral summit with Prime Minister Abe will focus more on resuming shuttle diplomacy between the two neighboring countries and developing a future-oriented relationship.
Mr. Moon's trip to Tokyo next week will be the first visit to Japan by an incumbent South Korean president in six and a half years... and Mr. Li will become the first Chinese premier to step on Japanese soil in eight.
