During the visit, President Mahama is scheduled to hold bilateral talks with the President of South Korea, Lee Jae Myung, where discussions are expected to focus on deepening cooperation in trade, investment and development partnerships. He will also meet with the Speaker of the National Assembly of South Korea, Woo Won-shik, as part of efforts to enhance parliamentary and diplomatic relations between the two nations. As part of his itinerary, President Mahama will participate in a ship-naming ceremony at the Hyundai Heavy Industries shipyard in Ulsan. The trip has also drawn public attention after videos circulating online showed President Mahama arriving in South Korea aboard a new private jet owned by his brother and business mogul, Ibrahim Mahama. The Falcon 900 recently returned to service after several months of mandatory maintenance and major repairs in France at the Dassault Falcon Service facility.
