South Korean President Lee Jae Myung, spouse enjoy Ha Noi cuisines
VGP - South Korean President Lee Jae Myung and First Lady Kim Hye Kyung on Friday took time to stroll through the streets of Ha Noi, immersing themselves in the daily life and rhythm of the Capital city during the State visit to Viet Nam.

President Lee shares photos on Instagram of himself strolling through the streets of Ha Noi and greeting local residents.

"The evening in Ha Noi was truly beautiful," he wrote. "I exchanged warm greetings with the Vietnamese people while walking around Hoan Kiem Lake and the alleys of the Old Quarter. It was especially meaningful to meet in an everyday setting rather than through a formal schedule." - Photo: Dantri
