SEOUL (REUTERS) - South Korean president Moon Jae In will hold a summit with his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping on Saturday (Nov 11), South Korea's presidential office said in a statement on Friday.

The two leaders will both attend the APEC summit of Asia Pacific leaders in Vietnam's central city of Danang.
