We start with U.S. President Donald Trump's highly anticipated State of the Union, in which he laid out details of his second meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.<br />Yoon Jung-min reports. <br />In his State of the Union address Tuesday night, local time, President Trump said the second North Korea-U.S. summit will be held, as widely expected, in Vietnam at the end of this month.<br /><br />"Much work remains to be done, but my relationship with Kim Jong-un is a good one. Chairman Kim and I will meet again on February 27th and 28th in Vietnam."<br /><br />Trump will be meeting Chairman Kim for the second time.<br />Their first summit was last June in Singapore, but for several months now, progress on denuclearization seems to have stalled.<br /><br />In his speech, Trump said he would continue working for peace on the Korean Peninsula,... and touted his accomplishments in America's relationship with the North.<br /><br />"As part of a bold diplomacy, we continue our historic push for peace on the Korean Peninsula. Our hostages have come home. Nuclear testing has stopped. And there has not been a missile launch in more than last 15 months.
