Pope Francis would be the first Pope to visit North Korea if he makes the trip.
While visiting the Vatican, President Moon Jae-in offered leader Kim Jong-un's invitation to the Pope.
Seoul's presidential office told reporters the Pope said he would surely respond to any official invitation from Pyongyang and he could possibly go.
Kim expressed interest in a visit by the Pope during last month's inter-Korean summit.
It was unclear how Pope Francis would respond. Human rights organizations have condemned North Korea for vast human rights abuses and the persecution of Christians.
