The importance of rare 𝐾 decays especially in the context of a kaon unitarity triangle (KUT) is emphasized. The decay 𝐾 𝐿 → 𝜋 0 𝜈 ν is theoretically very clean but experimentally extremely challenging. The Standard Model prediction B ∼ 3 × 10 −11 is still about two orders of magnitude away from the current experimental upper bound. One way to continue to make progress towards the construction of a KUT is by improving the accuracy in the calculation of 𝜀 ′ . Another way which is the primary focus here is via studies of 𝐾 0 → 𝜋 0 𝜇 + 𝜇 − . LHCb, J-PARC, the proposed HIKE project, phenomenology, and in fact precision studies on the lattice can all play a very important role in this context.
