Report: President Moon Jae-in discussed denuclearization issues with Kim Yong-chol, a key official in the North's ruling party in charge of handling inter-Korean affairs, during a closed-door meeting on Sunday. 

A senior presidential official confirmed the discussion the next day without elaborating further. 

Shortly after the one-hour meeting at an undisclosed location in Pyeongchang, presidential spokesman Kim Eui-kyeom said the president called for dialogue between the U.S. and North Korea to help improve inter-Korean ties and to fundamentally resolve Korean Peninsula issues. 

According to the spokesman, the North's chief delegate to the closing ceremony of the Winter Olympics said Pyongyang is willing to talk with the U.S., adding that North Korea-U.S. ties should develop alongside inter-Korean relations.

Moon has been an advocate of a two-stage process of denuclearization, involving a freeze and then a dismantlement. 

Under the process, the international community, including the U.S., would negotiate corresponding measures in a step-by-step manner should the North halt its nuclear and missile provocations and come to the negotiating table to discuss denuclearization. 

Moon is said to have explained that plan, stressing that now is the time for Washington and Pyongyang to discuss denuclearization when conditions are ripening for dialogue between the two parties. 

The North’s delegation is said to have listened to Moon's denuclearization remarks without a particular response.
