"Trump 'I'm Chaos? "Look at Korea". "Joke".

U.S. President-elect Donald Trump is said to have jokingly said, "Everyone calls me 'chaos' but look at Korea."

CBS reported this on the 18th local time based on interviews with about 10 people familiar with Trump's recent situation.

CBS said Trump joked that he might meet with Yoon Suk Yeol's president "if they stop impeaching him."

The specific timing of the remarks was not mentioned in the article.

However, the remarks are interpreted as taking into account President Yoon's declaration of emergency martial law on December 3 last year and the subsequent impeachment.

This is the first time Trump's remarks have been made regarding the recent situation in Korea.

President-elect Trump also expressed expectations for the Nobel Peace Prize.

According to multiple figures, he said he deserved the Nobel Peace Prize when he sent a letter to Abe during dinner with former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's wife Akie Abe in December last year, recommending him as a candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize for easing tensions with North Korea.

An aide said Trump has an "excessive obsession" with the Nobel Prize, which has become a hot topic again in the process of strategizing the Middle East negotiations.

In addition, as Trump had too many phone calls with heads of state, National Security Adviser nominee Mike Waltz came to Mar-a-Lago to organize the conversation, and aides limited some calls to a minute and focused on congratulatory messages.

For a while, the phone call with the leaders was interrupted, but a staff member said Trump was exhausted.
