On the first day of the visit, the 11th, President Yoon held a meeting with ethnic Koreans and overseas nationals, and attended a dinner with President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev of Kazakhstan.

On the 12th, a summit meeting with President Tokayev will be held at the presidential palace, where they will sign a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to strengthen the strategic partnership, followed by a joint press conference.
