K-pop group EXO met White House adviser Ivanka Trump for the second time at Cheong Wa Dae, Saturday.

The presidential office invited the group to the dinner meeting between President Moon Jae-in and U.S. President Donald Trump.

Ivanka first met the group at the PyeongChang Winter Olympics in February 2018. She revealed to EXO then that her seven-year-old daughter Arabella Kushner is a fan.

Moon introduced the group to Trump and Ivanka at the cocktail reception before the dinner. She had a big smile and shook members' hands.

EXO leader SUHO handed the group's autographed album to Trump and Ivanka as a gift after hearing Moon say, "Next week is her daughter's birthday."

The group posted a picture with Ivanka and U.S. Ambassador Harry Harris later that night, saying: "Thank you for your love and support for EXO!" Ivanka soon re-tweeted the post.
