Japanese Foreign Minister Seiji Maehara will tell his South Korean counterpart Kim Sung-hwan in Seoul on Saturday that Tokyo is mulling direct talks with Pyongyang, a diplomatic source said Thursday.
"The government will find out in the meeting why he mentioned the possibility of talks with the North," the source explained.
