Trump told reporters he's in "no rush" to make "the right deal," a sharp break from his heated rhetoric a year ago about the threat posed by Pyongyang.

Kim said it was too early to tell whether a deal could be reached. He said he had a "feeling that good results would come out" of the talks and that he was not pessimistic.

2. SOUNDBITE (Korean) Kim Jong Un, North Korean leader:
++TRANSLATION PROVIDED BY INTERPRETER ON LOCATION++
"Because there are people who are welcoming this meeting. There are people who have remained sceptical about this meeting, but I'm sure that all of them would be watching the moment that we are sitting together side-by-side as if they're watching a fantasy movie. ++INTERPRETER TRANSLATION++ So we have made a lot of efforts so far. And we thought that now it's time for us to come to Hanoi, sit together, and then have this wonderful dialogue. ++INTERPRETER TRANSLATION++ And let me assure you that I will do all my best to bring a good result ultimately today."
3. SOUNDBITE (English) Donald Trump, US President:
"Well thank you very much, Chairman Kim. And it's great to be with you again and I'm sure over the years we'll be together a lot. And I think we'll also be together after the fact, meaning after the deal is made. We had very good discussions last night at dinner and the pre-dinner was very good. And there are a lot of great ideas being thrown about. I think very importantly the relationship is, you know, just very strong. And when you have a good relationship a lot of good things happen. So I can't speak necessarily for today but I can say that just a little bit longer term and over a period of time I know we're going to have a fantastic success with respect to Chairman Kim and North Korea. They're going to have an economic powerhouse. I've been writing about it. I've been talking about it. I think it's going to be an economic powerhouse. And it's something I very much look forward to helping with, because with a little bit of help in the right locations, in the right place, I think it's going to be something very special. ++INTERPRETER TRANSLATION++ I have been saying very much from the beginning that speed is not that important to me, I very much appreciate no testing of nuclear rocket missiles, any of it, very much appreciate it. And Chairman Kim and I had a great talk about that last night. I'd let him say what he said if he'd like to and if he doesn't he doesn't have to. But we had a very good talk about that last night. And again I am in no rush. If we don't want the testing and we've developed something very special with respect to that. But I just want to say I have great respect for Chairman Kim and I have great respect for this country and I believe that it will be something economically that will be almost hard to compete with for many countries, it has such potential."
