Yonhap added that Seoul was planning to initiate talks with Ukraine this week regarding a visit from Kyiv's special representative to South Korea, as both nations have pledged to step up measures in response to North Korean troops being deployed to Russia.
"It will take a day or two for the Ukrainian side to designate a special envoy and finalise a plan to visit and hold discussions here," a senior official from the South Korean President's Office told reporters on condition of anonymity.
South Korea is considering dispatching a team to monitor North Korean military activities on the battlefield to gauge potential security implications.
