Laos is a single-party state with a ruling communist party that tightly controls politics but allows a liberalized economy. Communist North Korea allows no political opposition but has experimented with limited market reforms in recent years.

Both countries are among the poorest in Asia.

South Korea's Yonhap news agency said Bouasone's trip would last 11 days and follows a visit by Kim to Laos in November. The two countries established diplomatic relations in 1974, the agency said.

Bouasone visited South Korea in June, according to Yonhap
