Park Yoon-joo, the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, will hold a strategic dialogue with Japan's Deputy Minister for Foreign Affairs, Takehiro Funakoshi, on November 2 in Japan.
A Ministry of Foreign Affairs official stated that the dialogue will cover a wide range of topics, including bilateral relations and various regional and global issues.
This marks the second strategic dialogue between the two countries since the Yoon Suk Yeol administration took office, following a meeting held in November of last year in Seoul. During that meeting, both sides acknowledged the positive momentum in restoring shuttle diplomacy and agreed on the increasing importance of cooperation between the two nations.
Discussions are expected to include scheduling the next summit to continue shuttle diplomacy and cooperation on North Korea's nuclear issues. There is also speculation about forming a consensus on peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula ahead of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in Shenzhen, China.
Additionally, cooperation on industrial supply chains and people-to-people exchanges are likely to be on the agenda.
