President Moon Jae-in will embark on a four-day trip to the United States to meet with President Donald Trump ahead of the U.S.-North Korea summit.

Moon will depart from Seoul Airport in Seongnam, Gyeonggi Province on Monday afternoon and arrive in Washington the same day.

The president is scheduled to meet with senior U.S.officials in charge of security and diplomatic policies on Tuesday morning.

He will then hold one-on-one talks with Trump, which will be followed by an extended summit over lunch involving the two leaders' top aides.

The talks are likely to last for quite a long time as they come when North Korea abruptly canceled planned talks with Seoul and threatened to cancel their participation in the upcoming summit with the United States.

Moon will also visit the legation building of the Korean Empire in the United States to mark the 130th anniversary of the creation of the building.

He will leave Washington on Tuesday night and return home early on Thursday.
