The U.S. vice president has arrived in South Korea amid the uproar caused by North Korea's failed missile test launch from the port city of Sinpo.

Mike Pence said Sunday times are "challenging," but America's "historic alliance with the courageous people of South Korea has never been stronger."

Speaking in Seoul at a fellowship dinner for relatives of U.S. troops based in South Korea, the vice president said the willingness of the U.S. military members "to stand firm without fear inspires the nation and inspires the world."
