SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — U.S. President Donald Trump sent North Korean leader Kim Jong Un an “excellent” letter, the North’s state-run news agency reported Sunday, quoting Kim as saying he would “seriously contemplate” the content.

The White House press secretary, Sarah Sanders, said Trump sent a letter and “correspondence between the two leaders has been ongoing.”

Formal talks between the U.S. and North Korea broke down after a failed summit between Kim and Trump in February in Vietnam.

North Korea is seeking a step-by-step approach in which moves toward denuclearization are matched by concessions from the U.S., notably a relaxation of the sanctions.

Pyongyang’s Korean Central News Agency’s report on the Trump letter said Kim “said with satisfaction that the letter is of excellent content.”

“Appreciating the political judging faculty and extraordinary courage of President Trump, Kim Jong Un said that he would seriously contemplate the interesting content,” the agency said, without elaborating.

Dear Highly Exalted Esteemed Leader Jong-Un,

Since we have become pen pals I think of things to put in my letters a lot.
What are your views on the keto diet? Do you think Taylor Swift was pandering in her latest video? Whose side do you take in the British Royals squabbling?
Look forward to your next letter.

Your Friend,
President Donald J. Trump

Dear Kim,

Ever had a Korean BBQ?

If this doesn't work out, I was planning to have one.

Yours,
