The whole point of this is to explain that there's no success or accomplishment until we see what happens. Presidents in the past have refused to meet with them because there has been no sincerity in their promises to stop their nuclear program. Talks occurring are only inherently a big victory for N Korea. Whether or not it can be called a victory for the US remains to be seen.
I just wanted to touch on this one point:
Trump has been shown over his entire "career" to be easily swayed by compliments. NK has already shown a penchant for playing him to get a reaction. Trump probably thinks that he and he alone has the brains to meet with Kim Jung Un and settle this once and for all...so just like other moves he's made without getting advice from people who are ACTUALLY smarter than him and have ACTUAL experience he agrees to this more because it feeds his ego/self image than for any other reason.

Your anger and ego will always reveal your true self.
