President Trump asked South Korean President Moon Jae-In to deliver a birthday message to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un this week, according to reports.

South Korea’s National Security Adviser Chung Eui-yong confirmed to reporters at Incheon International Airport on Friday that Trump requested the birthday greeting be sent to Kim, the outlet reported. The North Korean leader’s birthday was Wednesday. 

“He had a well-wishing message that he wanted South Korean President Moon Jae-in to deliver to Chairman Kim Jong Un,” the adviser said. 

Chung and his equivalent adviser in Japan Shigeru Kitamura met with Trump in Washington on Wednesday. Chung confirmed that South Korean officials delivered Trump’s message to North Korea through “appropriate measures,” although he did not share the specific birthday message. 

The North Korean leader sent Trump a birthday message in June, Bloomberg reported.
