TEHRAN, May 1 (Yonhap) -- South Korean President Park Geun-hye is set to meet with Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei this week during her visit to Tehran, South Korea's presidential office said Sunday.
Park is expected to exchange opinions with Khamenei on Monday afternoon on how to boost relations between the two countries, according to Cheong Wa Dae.
The planned meeting comes after Park's separate talks with her Iranian counterpart, Hassan Rouhani, on Monday morning.
The summit will be the first meeting between the leaders of the two countries since South Korea and Iran established diplomatic relations in 1962.
