Dear Dr. Kissinger,

I am writing to express my appreciation for devoting your precious time to me during your recent visit to the Republic of Korea. You were especially gracious in providing me with your respected view. I found your remarks informative and helpful in broadening my understanding, both with regard to prospective Korea political developments and U.S.-Korean relations. I would add that I will always be happy to hear your valuable opinion about the matters if my visit to the United States meterializes. You especially left with a strong sense of optimism about the Korea's future and U.S.-Korean relations.

In remembrance of our meeting, I am also happy to send you a copy of picture that you were taken while you visited my residence.

Thanking you for your consideration and with best regards.
