by Associated Press

   SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA --

   South Korea says North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has invited South
   Korean President Moon Jae-in for a summit meeting in the North.
   Moon's spokesman Kim Eui-kyeom said Saturday Kim's sister verbally
   delivered his offer in a lunch meeting with Moon at Seoul's
   presidential palace.
   The spokesman says Moon replied that the North and South should
   continue to work to build conditions so that a summit can take place.
   The spokesman says Moon also called for a quick resumption of dialogue
   between the United States and North Korea.
   Moon's office says Kim's sister, Kim Yo Jong, came to the South as his
   special envoy.
