According to CNN, US President Donald Trump and South Korean President Moon Jae-in both confirmed that they will meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un at the DMZ.
“I look forward to this meeting. We understand each other,” President Trump said.
According to President Trump, the DMZ used to be “very, very dangerous,” but that has changed dramatically since he began talking to North Korean leader Kim Jong-un. “After the first summit, all the danger has gone,” he added, adding that there has been “a significant difference” in the DMZ since talks began between the United States, North Korea and South Korea.

North Korean media has released information related to Mr. Trump's statement about meeting with Leader Kim Jong-un at the DMZ, and hinted that Mr. Kim is going to the DMZ, but is still uncertain about this./.
