dismissal,
It’s been 200 days since the historic North Korea-US summit in Singapore last June, and the year is drawing to a close. To this day, I hope to recreate the glory of that day without forgetting the historic moment that firmly held the hand of his lord in a beautiful and holy place as the world watched with great interest and hope. As I said at the time, I am very honored to have a wonderful relationship with someone like His Excellency.
As the 2019 New Year approaches, critical issues still await us that require endless efforts toward higher ideals and goals. As His Excellency has honestly stated, as we enter the New Year, the world will once again see another historic encounter between His Excellency and myself, reminiscent of a scene from a fantasy movie, in the near future.
I have already instructed my closest and most trusted colleagues and related organizations to rush to prepare for the second North Korea-United States summit, and I am ready to get good results with your lord at the next meeting.
However, my concern is that if we show stubborn adherence to our respective positions regarding the summit venue, we may not be positively reflected upon. This can also be a waste of time. Therefore, my position is to urgently open high-level contacts with North Korea and the United States internally (in private) to discuss and coordinate issues related to location.
I hope that His Excellency will once again show great determination and great leadership so that he can achieve results at the second North Korea-United States summit. I sincerely hope that the work you are trying to accomplish will yield great results. We wish you the health, happiness and great success of your honorable First Lady, your family and those close to you.
Yours sincerely, expressing my unwavering respect to the President, Kim Jong-un, Chairman of the State Council of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea

Dear president,
I am writing you this letter to congratulate your birthday on June 12, as the first anniversary of the meeting in Singapore approaches and a few days ahead. The (Singapore Conference) was a very important historical moment that caught the world’s attention and left an indelible mark on my memory. It is a great honor to be able to send you this letter.
On the occasion of my birthday, I would like to express my sincere greetings to your lord. I would like to extend my regards to the First Lady, other family members and his people, wishing everyone health and happiness, and I hope everyone’s dreams turn into a beautiful reality.
Just like the little time we spent together in Singapore a year ago, every moment we shared in Hanoi 103 days ago was a moment of glory and a precious memory. Those cherished memories, kept in my unwavering respect for you, will one day be the driving force that propels me to take my step as we walk towards each other again in the future.
I also believe that the deep and special friendship between us will act as a magical force that drives the progress of North Korea-United States relations, removing all obstacles that we face to achieve the progress we want to make.
Madam President, I still admire and place my hope in the will and decisions that you showed in our first meeting to solve problems with our unique style that no one has tried before and write a new story. Today’s reality is that without a fresh approach and without the courage to do so, the prospect of solving the problem is hopeless.
With the will to give our mutual trust a chance again, I believe the day will soon come when we will sit face to face and let great things happen. That day will come again. It will go down in history as another fantastic moment.
I assure you that my respect for you will never change.
Sir, happy birthday one more time. May you always be healthy and successful in what you do. On behalf of my family, I wish to bless the First Lady and the other members of her family as well.
Your true friend, Kim Jong-un
