South Korea and Japan held working-level diplomatic talks in Seoul this afternoon.
South Korea's director-general for Asian and Pacific affairs, Kim Jung-han , met his Japanese counterpart Shigeki Takizaki at Seoul's foreign ministry.
They discussed Tokyo's export curbs and Seoul's subsequent decision to terminate a military intel-sharing pact.
The meeting comes a week before South Korean Prime Minister Lee Nak-yon's scheduled visit to Japan to attend Emperor Naruhito's enthronement ceremony.
The two officials last met in Tokyo a month ago.
