Friday's meeting will be attended by some 1-hundred-and-80 officials including Defense Minister Song Young-moo, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Jeong Kyeong-doo, Vincent Brooks, Commander-in-Chief of the ROK-U.S. Combined Forces, President Moon's Chief of Staff Im Jong-seok, and the President's National Security Adviser Chung Eui-yong.
