"President Obama will welcome President Park Geun-hye of the Republic of Korea to the White House on May 7," it said in a press release, using the official name of the Northeast Asian nation.
It would be their first face-to-face talks since Park took office in February. Their meeting is widely expected to focus on discussing ways to deal with North Korea and set out plans for bolstering the Seoul-Washington ties.
Amid a stream of Pyongyang's bellicose statements, Seoul and Washington are trying to demonstrate that there is no daylight between them on their alliance.
