President Moon Jae-in met North Korean leader Kim Jong-un for their surprise second summit at Panmunjeom, Saturday, at Kim's request to discuss the upcoming Trump-Kim summit. U.S. President Trump abruptly cancelled the June 12 summit on Thursday but suggested in a tweet two days later that it could still take place as scheduled.
