Foreign Minister Yun Byung-se will visit Tokyo this coming weekend to meet with his Japanese counterpart on mending ties that have been frayed over shared history, the Foreign Ministry said Wednesday, according to Yonhap News Agency.
It would be Yun's first trip to Japan since taking office in 2013.
His two-day visit from Sunday also comes as the Northeast Asian neighbors mark next week the 50th anniversary of the normalization of diplomatic ties.
Yun will hold talks with Japanese Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida shortly arriving there Sunday, according to a press release from the ministry.
The two sides plan to exchange views on "bilateral ties, the North Korean issue and other mutual issues of concern including regional and global security situations," it said.
