A nonpartisan group of Japanese lawmakers plans to hold a general meeting this week with a South Korean parliamentarians' group. The meetings have been suspended for three years due to the coronavirus pandemic.
About 20 members of the Japan-South Korea parliamentarians' union are set to begin a three-day visit to Seoul on Wednesday.
The visiting members will include the ruling Liberal Democratic Party's Nukaga Fukushiro, a former finance minister who heads the union, as well as former education minister Nakagawa Masaharu of the Constitutional Democratic Party.
The Japanese and South Korean groups are expected to adopt a joint statement calling for the governments of both countries to communicate more closely.
Arrangements are underway for senior members of the Japanese lawmakers' group to meet South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol.
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the establishment of the lawmakers' groups. The members hope to pave the way for improving bilateral ties through their diplomacy, despite wartime labor and other issues.
