Evian-les-Bains, France - South Korean President Lee Jae Myung said he may need to prepare for a round of golf with Donald Trump after receiving a "pinky promise" from the US president at G7 talks in France.
The two leaders met over dinner at the summit in Evian this week, where they discussed South Korea's long-standing rivalry with the nuclear-armed North.
Lee wrote on X they held "in-depth conversations about peace on the Korean Peninsula and Korea-US relations, and significant progress was made."
But it wasn't all work.
Trump "talked about golf and said he would play a round with us, and my wife sealed the pledge with a pinky promise," the South Korean leader posted.
At lunch the following day, avid golfer Trump presented Lee with one of his signature black markers, wrote Lee, posting a photo of the gift.
He also uploaded a picture of him seated next to the US leader, both smiling.
As they parted, the US president "again said we must play golf together. I had thought it was just a passing remark, but it seems I should start preparing," posted Lee.
He thanked Trump for his "special interest."
Trump owns over a dozen golf courses in the US and elsewhere, including in Scotland and Ireland.
