Speaking on Air Force One has he flew to Japan to begin his 12-day tour of Asia, Mr Trump said a decision on adding the reclusive regime to the list would be made soon.
White House adviser HR McMaster had earlier revealed Washington was considering placing North Korea on the list alongside Iran, Sudan and Syria.
Mr McMaster said the killing of Kim Jong-un’s half brother in a Malaysian airport earlier this year could lead to Pyongyang’s placement.
Although Malaysia has never directly accused North Korea of the murder, South Korea’s spy agency said the attack was part of a plot emanating from the highest levels of the rogue regime.
Mr McMaster said: “A regime who murders someone in a public airport using nerve agent, a despotic leader who murders his brother in that manner, that’s clearly an act of terrorism that fits in with a range of other actions.”
He said: “You’ll hear more about that soon, I think. It is something that’s under consideration.”
