A group of President Moon Jae-in's advisers on inter-Korean affairs will participate in a forum on the eve of Moon's summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un on April 27.

They include University of North Korean Studies professor Yang Moo-jin, Dongguk University professor Kim Yong-hyun and President Moon's special adviser Moon Chung-in.

They belong to the preparatory committee for the inter-Korea summit. The forum will be held at KINTEX in Goyang, Gyeonggi Province.

The panelists will discuss major issues, such as the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula and the inter-Korean summit's possible impact on the Washington-Pyongyang summit.
