Xinhua, August 20, 2015 Adjust font size:

South Korean President Park Geun-hye will visit China next month to participate in the celebratory event to mark the 70th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the presidential office Cheong Wa Dae said Thursday.

Ju Chul-ki, senior presidential secretary for foreign affairs, told a press briefing that Park will make a trip to China for three days from Sept. 2 to attend the celebratory event set to be held in Beijing on Sept. 3.

Park will attend the celebratory event in the morning on Sept. 3, but it has yet to be decided on whether Park will take part in the Sept. 3 military parade.

China has scheduled a series of events for the war victory anniversary, culminating in a military parade on Sept. 3 in Beijing. Endi
