According to the Ministry of Defense, the South Korean delegation led by Lee Gwang-seok, in charge of the ministry's international policy met with his Chinese counterpart Guo Hongtao.
First launched in 1995, the meeting was held for the first time since the last one, which was via Zoom in June 2022.
The two sides agreed to hold close consultations to revive strategic dialogue channels and expand bilateral cooperation. They also discussed ways to resume joint search-and-rescue drills in the West Sea.
The ministry said it expects the meeting to "lay the groundwork for building trust" between the two countries.
