Ich kann nicht glauben, dass sie ihm eine Nachbildung einer Krone gegeben haben. Besonders nachdem die USA einen der größten Proteste in der amerikanischen Geschichte gegen die Diktatur veranstalteten.
Well, at least he’s got a nuke submarine deal and better trade terms for a replica crown. The real art of the deal Id say.

Korean president is a god damn disgrace. Must have received some of that trump signed knee pads after this stunt.

Is it “pandering” if the recipient of the gift is too vain and stupid to realize he’s being made fun of for being a dumbass? Man who’s been “renovating” the people’s house with spray-painted wall bling is getting a GILDED REPLICA OF A CROWN. FFS.

Lee Jae-myung has been through worse. For him, sucking up to a wannabe dictator is a piece of cake.

They sell these in tourist spots in Seoul.

I mean it is a historical artifact of Korea and a nice gift to put on display.
Also you gotta do some ass-kissing from time to time to preserve your national interest. The trade deal went much better than I expected. Reducing the cash investment and getting approval to build nuclear submarines is huge.

The price of pride in this case would be a lot (more) damage to his country’s economy. Just goes to show how easily manipulated the leader of the US is. This was smart on LJM’s part. His job is to get his country’s people what they need, not be prideful. If Trump starts demanding that ROK send soldiers to some bullshit war he started, then LJM can tell him to get fucked. But this is just theatrics. Pick your battles.

As an American: just do it. He wants baubles and flattery. So give it to him and lie to his face.
“$200 billion in US investments? Yes of course Mr President”
He’ll forget by the time he’s in the next country on his trip.

South Korea gave the biggest middle finger to the American left and the South Korean right by giving him that replica crown, and it walked away with nuclear latency, on top of an OPCON transfer guaranteed to happen by the end of his term. LMJ and Trump might be remembered as modern Korean independence fighters.

Look how happy Trump look, like a kid with his mcdonalds happy meal. Such a simpe and feeble creature, trumped up as it were.

The U.S. is a master at taking people’s money. It’s honestly ridiculous.

What I can know from this is op does not know that well about Korean history

This is such a stupid take. Why would the president of SK actively sabotage his diplomatic agenda (aimed at improving things for SK citizens) in order to instead please American liberals and leftists?
I know it’s hard to understand given how the current US president is a pathological narcissist, but the role of the president in diplomacy is to protect the interests of the state and its people, not win praise from disgruntled citizens in other countries.
