The president, who attended the Group of 20 summit in Osaka, Japan, on Saturday, had previously tweeted, "If Chairman Kim of North Korea sees this, I would meet him at the Border/DMZ just to shake his hand and say Hello(?)!"

“I’m gonna be there for a day. I understand that’s one of the places I’ll be visiting,” he also told The Hill in an exclusive interview Monday.

Asked whether he would meet the North Korean leader there if Kim offered to do so, Trump responded, “I might, yeah.”

The Associated Press reported Saturday, citing the state Korean Central News Agency, that North Korean Vice Foreign Minister Choe Son Hui said a meeting could be "another meaningful occasion in further deepening the personal relations between the two leaders and advancing the bilateral relations."
