Seoul's presidential delegation, led by chief security adviser Chung Eui-yong, nailed down a third summit between President Moon Jae-in and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un from Sept. 18-20 during its one-day trip to the North's capital on Wednesday.
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un renewed his commitment to denuclearization, Chung has said, raising hope for a turnaround in apparently deadlocked negotiations between Washington and Pyongyang. (Yonhap)
