Kim and Guterres attended a dinner ahead of the opening of the Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang. "He did have a brief exchange with president Kim," said UN spokesman Farhan Haq. Guterres again "reiterated his expectation and hope that all parties will use dialogue to achieve the peaceful denuclearization of the peninsula," he added.
