South Korea appears to be working hard behind-the-scenes to keep the inter-Korean peace drive on track... despite last month's disappointing summit in Hanoi.
Seoul's top security adviser Chung Eui-yong reportedly traveled to China last weekend for a meeting with the country's top diplomat Yang Jiechi.
Sources say the two discussed the North Korea-U.S. summit and possible follow-up measures.
Chung was reportedly due to hold a phone conversation with his U.S. counterpart John Bolton on Monday evening, Korea time.
The Blue House has yet to confirm the report or the call.
