 "Biden, Yoon Suk Yeol")
U.S. President Joe Biden and his new South Korean counterpart said on Saturday their countries' decades-old alliance needed to develop not only to face North Korean threats but to keep the Indo-Pacific region "free and open" and protect global supply chains.
Biden and Yoon Suk-yeol are meeting in Seoul for their first diplomatic engagement since the South Korean president's inauguration 11 days ago.
The friendly encounter between allies is clouded by intelligence showing North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is prepared to conduct nuclear or missile tests.
