Moon was ready to meet with Kim Jong Un for a fourth time to try and save the stalled denuclearization deals between the U.S. and North Korea; however, Kim Jong Un asked Moon to support a common goal to unite North and South Korea instead of supporting the United States. In previous talks, both leaders agreed to reconnect the railways and roads that run through both their countries, normalize a factory park in [[Kaesong Industrial Region|the Kaesong Industrial Zone]], and allow South Korean tourists to visit the [[Mount Kumgang]] resort again. However, this joint project required the partial relief of U.N. sanctions to begin operations.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://thediplomat.com/2019/04/south-korean-president-moon-calls-for-4th-summit-with-kim-jong-un/|title=South Korean President Moon Calls for 4th Summit With Kim Jong Un|first=Kim Tong-hyung, The|last=Diplomat|website=The Diplomat|access-date=April 27, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190416133037/https://thediplomat.com/2019/04/south-korean-president-moon-calls-for-4th-summit-with-kim-jong-un/|archive-date=April 16, 2019|url-status=live}}</ref> Moon also planned to invite Kim Jong Un to the [[ASEAN Summit|the ASEAN Summit]] in South Korea in November 2019.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://elevenmyanmar.com/news/moon-vows-to-push-us-n-korea-talks-open-to-inviting-kim-to-asean-s-korea-summit-asianewsnetwork|title=Moon vows to push US-N Korea talks, open to inviting Kim to Asean-S Korea summit - #AsiaNewsNetwork|website=Eleven Media Group Co., Ltd|access-date=April 27, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190425234803/https://elevenmyanmar.com/news/moon-vows-to-push-us-n-korea-talks-open-to-inviting-kim-to-asean-s-korea-summit-asianewsnetwork|archive-date=April 25, 2019|url-status=live}}</ref>

Kim Jong Un said that "[North Korea] maintain[s] good relations with the U.S. president, as to be able to exchange letters asking about health anytime if we want", but Kim wanted the U.S. to come to the table with a constructive attitude for the nuclear deal.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.sbs.com.au/news/kim-jong-un-open-to-third-trump-summit-with-the-right-attitude|title=Kim Jong-un open to third Trump summit 'with the right attitude'|website=SBS News|access-date=April 27, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190429003957/https://www.sbs.com.au/news/kim-jong-un-open-to-third-trump-summit-with-the-right-attitude|archive-date=April 29, 2019|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/president-trump-north-koreas-kim-jong-meet-summit/story?id=62376636|title=President Trump and North Korea's Kim Jong Un willing to meet for third summit|work=ABC News|access-date=April 27, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190414085150/https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/president-trump-north-koreas-kim-jong-meet-summit/story?id=62376636|archive-date=April 14, 2019|url-status=live}}</ref>
