Original 

I’m writing about the US-DPRK* summit held in Sinapore on last Tuesday. (*DPRK stands for Democratic People’s Republic of Korea)
US president Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un had a historical summit yesterday and it was what all Korean had been looking forward to happen. At the summit, they signed an agreement in accordance with the desire of peace and prosperity for both countries.

The agreement consists of 2 big parts below.
Firstly, US-DPRK commit to establish new relation including diplomatic and economic cooperation. I heard that North Korea also suggested the US to open their embassy in Pyeongyang, the capital city of North Korea, as a way to guarantee the nation’s security but I’m not sure wheather or not it would happen.
Secondly, both countries agree to complete denuclearization of Korean Penisula. However there are gaps to understand the progress and way for completing denuclearization for the US and North Korea. So they should negotiate further details about it in the near future.

It’s such a great step toward bulidng up the peace of Korean Penisula. But on the other hands, I feel shameful that South Korea don’t really have a leadership for the negotiation with North Korea but the US do. I hope one day South and North Korea could declare the end of Korean War and annoucne the unification to one country for our own.

I’m writing about the US-DPRK* summit held in Singapore on last Tuesday. (*DPRK stands for the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea)
US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un had a historical summit yesterday and it was what all Koreans had been looking forward to happen. At the summit, they signed an agreement in accordance with the desire of peace and prosperity for both countries.

The agreement consists of 2 big parts below.
Firstly, the US & the DPRK committed to establishing new improving relations including diplomatic and economic cooperation. I heard that North Korea also suggested the US to open their embassy in Pyeongyang, the capital city of North Korea, as a way to guarantee the nation’s security. But I’m not sure whether or not it will happen.
Secondly, both countries agreed to complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula. However, there are gaps to understanding the process and way/method for completing denuclearization for between the US and North Korea. So they should negotiate further details about it in the near future.

It’s such a great step toward building up the peace of the Korean Peninsula. But on the other hands, I feel shameful ashamed that South Korea doesn’t really have a leadership role for the negotiation with North Korea but the US does. I hope one day South and North Korea could declare the end of the Korean War and announce the unification to one of our country for our own without foreign/outside assistance.
