According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Cho met with Gen. Xavier Brunson, commander of U.S. Forces Korea (USFK) earlier in the day.
The visit was arranged after Brunson invited Cho during a luncheon last month that also included Elbridge Colby, the U.S. Defense Department's undersecretary of defense for policy, who was visiting South Korea at the time.
Pundits speculate the two sides likely discussed ways to strengthen bilateral relations, covering various pending issues including possible changes in the role of USFK for the modernization of the bilateral alliance.
