President Trump visited South Korea as part of his six-day tour of Asia, receiving a national medal and praise for his efforts towards peace on the Korean Peninsula. President Lee Jae Myung of South Korea honored him with the accolade during a ceremony in Gyeongju. Despite technically being at war since 1950, Trump expressed eagerness to resume dialogue with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un to address ongoing tensions. However, previous invitations from Trump had not been responded to by Kim, and North Korea conducted a missile test prior to Trump's arrival in South Korea. Trump stated his intention to work towards resolving the conflict between the two Koreas during his visit.
