President Joe Biden has still not responded after the North Korean regime launched a ballistic missile over the Sea of Japan this week.
North Korea has not officially commented on the missile launch, nor has Biden yet responded in any way.
In a statement to NBC News, the office of the South Korean joint chiefs of staff confirmed the launches came from the South Hamgyong Province in North Korea early on Thursday.
Both launches came after Biden was publicly warned by Kim Yo Jong, the sister of North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un, in an incendiary statement about relations between the two countries.
The comments came after it was widely reported that the Biden administration had not been able to establish a line of communication with Pyongyang, the capital of North Korea.
"A senior official from the Biden administration said Saturday that U.S. officials have tried to reach out to North Korea through multiple channels since last month, but had yet to receive a response," The AP reported.
According to Politico, the Biden administration views relations with North Korea as the country's top foreign policy issue, but has no immediate plans to directly respond in any way to any provocation by the nuclear-armed hermit state.
