Trump canceled the scheduled meeting on Thursday, saying that it would not happen "based on the tremendous anger and open hostility" displayed in the DPRK's most recent statements at that time.

However, he reversed course just one day later. Both sides wanted the meeting to happen and it could still go ahead after productive talks, he said.

Hours earlier, before Trump's statement calling to continue the summit, the DPRK's official Korean Central News Agency said Kim expressed his "fixed will" to hold the summit.

Kim made the remarks when having his second meeting with Moon at the truce village Panmunjom on Saturday.

During the Saturday meeting, Pyongyang and Seoul agreed to hold another high-level talk on Friday that will be followed by inter-Korean military talks to ease tensions and a Red Cross talk to hold the reunion of separated families across the inter-Korean border since the 1950-53 Korean War ended in an armistice, according to the ROK presidential office.
