South Korea reportedly plans to officially announce its decision to join the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) soon.

The foreign ministers of South Korea, China and Japan are likely to discuss the AIIB issue in a scheduled three-way meeting in Seoul later this week, according to Korean Herald.

The South Korea side decided to join the bank as one of the founding members before the deadline ends in late March, reported Xinhua news agency citing local newspaper Donga Ilbo on Thursday.

Officials from the ministries in charge of the AIIB entry affairs, including the finance and foreign ministries, are set to discuss entry conditions before making an official announcement supposedly next week, said Xinhua.

The AIIB is expected to provide a significant support for developing North Korea (DPRK)'s infrastructure during its potential opening and reform, said Lee Moon-gi, professor of Chinese commerce and trade at Sejong University, to Xinhua, adding that South Korea would want to take part in such projects.

Ahn Jong-beom, South Korean senior presidential secretary for economic affairs, dismissed confirmation on joining the AIIB at a press briefing on Wednesday, saying that nothing has been decided yet "at the current stage."

China has called on all interested countries to make their decisions before the deadline on March 31. Luxembourg announced on Wednesday its intention to join the bank after the UK, Germany, France and Italy confirmed their participation.
