A South Korean senior diplomat will depart to the United States on Thursday to prepare a summit between Presidents Moon Jae-in and Donald Trump set for next month, the foreign ministry said.

During his three-day trip, Vice Foreign Minister Lim Sung-nam is expected to discuss the timing, agenda and protocol details for the first talks between the two leaders, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.

Moon and Trump are expected to focus on North Korea's nuclear and missile threats, and the controversial deployment of a US missile defense system in South Korea.

The two allies agreed to hold the leaders' meeting in late June, during White House Asia Director Matt Pottinger's visit to Seoul as a presidential envoy earlier this month. (Yonhap)
