The “Trump-Kim Summit” was the first meeting of the heads of the DPRK and the United States in the past 70 years. Needless to say, it created a new history and attracted worldwide attention. Although the amount of relevant political and military studies is considerable, the current researches of the “Trump-Kim Summit” in the field of journalism and communication are still relatively limited.

Analysis of the characteristics of its reports is conducive to deepening the understanding of media communication methods and tendencies in major international news events. Due to the lack of relevant and attainable English reports in mainstream media in the DPRK, this study selects China Daily and Washington Post to analyze the coverage of the “Trump-Kim Summit” under the framing theory. It selects reports within the weeks of two summits by the quantitative analysis method. It covers the amount, length, topic, genre, sources, subjects and tendency of the reports and the image of the two leaders in them.

The study finds that China Daily believes that the summits provide a good opportunity for the DPRK-US consultation and have a positive impact on regional peace and stability. Although the Washington Post affirms its historical significance, it is skeptical as to what the summit’s actual function is. This study ascertains that the main reason for the difference lies in the position of the media and the social background in which the media is located. Therefore, in the process of international communication, the contextual media location of the audience should also be considered in order to carry out more effective dissemination.
