He is free to exchange love letters with Kim as long as he wants. But South Korea will now be lead by an administration that doesn't believe in appeasing North Korea and damaging the US strategic position by destrying SK-JPN relations.

Brown nosing and arse licking a dictator to the end. And fat boy treated him with the contempt he deserved.

Moon Jae-in appeased a murderous dictator.
Human rights were an anathema to a country that atrocities to there peoples are detailed by numerous UN observers.
Moon Jae-in abhorrence of Japan, its people, its government. and his use of his domestic South Korean justice system to circumvent international law is evidence enough of a Prime Minster that failed his people

Moon Jae-in was too bad a president. In foreign affairs, relations between Japan and South Korea were at their worst, he was not taken seriously by the U.S., ignored by China, and made a fool of by North Korea. The suicide rate remains high and the birthrate is considerably worse than in Japan. The Corona measure, which he had boasted about, became a mess at the end, and prosecutorial reforms destroyed the separation of powers. The success of Samsung and KPOP has nothing to do with him. He was popular simply because of his anti-Japanese words and actions. However, it is very interesting to note that his daughter was enrolled in a far-right Japanese university (Kokushikan University). It remains to be seen how many his scandals will be discovered.

Moon Jae-in promised everything and delivered nothing.
Moon Jae-in Covid policy is a highlight.
His distinct foreign policy towards Japan is and will be his failure in government.
Moon Jae-in could have built fiscal and economic ties with Japan.
Moon Jae-in flushed it all away through his antipathy.

And so rides off into the sunset perhaps Josean's last hope for reunification as one people in this generation, and the continuation of American perfidy against, and dominance of, the Korean People. Bukhan is one of the smallest and least resource rich countries on the planet and the hyped up FEAR of their AWESOME military power by pathological voices whose only concern is their own power can only be taken seriously by easily confused fools too lazy or lame to see the reality. And, truth be told, Nihon is MUCH more Bukhan's enemy than Bukhan is Nihon's. So has it been in the past and so, too, now, under the unkind thumb of the U.S. and the U.S. weapons makers who constantly push the psychopath's game of "Let's YOU and HIM fight!" (see: Berne, Eric).
