SK and China could learn something from this commendable comment. It shows that those in SK and China unable to move on are doing so solely for political purposes, which doesn’t make them good neighbors

Something is very wrong here. In this photo, the emperor is having a chat with a man who has: 1) claimed to have shot a man dead to teach the police how to do it, 2) said that he has committed murder at least once by pushing someone out of a helicopter, 3) joked about rape, 4) said he would kill his own children if he were to find that they had used illegal drugs, and 5) caused thousands of people - some no doubt innocent - to die in a brutal but futile drug war. This is about as bad as having the POTUS meet the emperor. Oh...that's coming next.

Very nice, good for both countries. South Korea and China have much to learn about moving on to build a better world.

@BakabonPapa Agreed, this guy is about as bad as presidents go, but nobody seems to care much about that anymore.

May the dust of respectability, civility, peace and nobility be upon him.

Duterte's great clodhoppers (boots) don't look too smart.

I hope they wiped their shoes before entering the room. That looks like a lovely carpet.

Allowing him in the presence of the Emperor does not seem to be a good PR move for the Imperial Household. He could have at least tightened his necktie.
