    April 16, 1996

        Q. President Kim, are you excited about the opportunity for a
    breakthrough with the dialog between North and South Korea?
        President Kim. Yes. I think that there is a possibility.
        Q. And do you welcome the fact that China might participate as well?
        President Kim. Well, we'll have a chance to talk about it later at
    the press conference.
        Q. Mr. President, was it as pretty down on the beach as it looked
    from up above?
        President Clinton. Yes. I felt like a honeymooner again.

    Hotel. President Kim spoke in Korean, and his remarks were translated by
