SEOUL (Reuters) -South Korea and the United States will meet for their first working group discussions on visa systems for Korean companies operating in the U.S. on September 30, Yonhap News Agency reported on Monday, citing Seoul's foreign ministry.

The talks are designed to improve U.S. visa programs for South Korean businesses there in the aftermath of a massive raid that led to the arrests of hundreds of South Korean workers in Georgia earlier this month.
