South Korean President Lee Jae Myung underscored his priorities for strengthening the U.S.-ROK alliance during a forum Monday after meeting Donald Trump.

Just a few hours before South Korean President Lee Jae Myung was set to enter the White House, a social media post from the US leader threatened to derail the summit.

South Korea's Lee Jae Myung narrowly avoided what he called a "Zelenskiy moment" after U.S. President Donald Trump welcomed him to Washington with right-wing conspiracy theories but then pulled off a high-stakes summit without unwanted drama.
