💨 Abstract
South Korean President Lee Jae Myung met with Chinese President Xi Jinping to initiate a "new phase" in bilateral relations. They discussed strengthening economic ties, tourism, and cooperation in technology and culture. Both leaders emphasized the importance of dialogue with North Korea and maintaining peace in Northeast Asia. They signed 15 agreements, including those on AI and consumer goods. Despite progress, a ban on Korean culture in China remains. The meeting comes amid strained China-Japan relations and North Korea's recent missile launches.
