Seoul, Feb 25 (SocialNews.XYZ) South Korean Foreign Minister Cho Tae-yul met this week with the country's business officials in New York and pledged the government's support for their overseas expansion, his Ministry said on Sunday.
Cho held the meeting in New York on Saturday after attending a G20 meeting in Rio de Janeiro and before travelling to Washington, Yonhap news agency reported.
