So Kim Jong un made a historical visit to South Korea and made news. The supreme leader of North Korea, known rather for his craze for nuclear weapons and some strangest rules on the planet, yesterday unveiled his milder version before the south Koreans. He cracked jokes, send out positive messages and did much more people thought they would never get to see him doing.

This was the first meeting of the south Korean lady with her North Korean conuterpart and you wouldn’t have been able to guess it if you saw the way they went along. Ri Sol-ju, the wife of Kim Jong un was greeted by Kim Jung -sook , the wife of Moon jae-in, the south Korean president. Ri, in a pastel pink outfit was taken to the peace house by Kim, who was in her powder blue dress coat. The media didn’t even spare an interpretation about the colour they chose and it was projected as representing spring – the season of hope, beginning and peace. The theme of ‘spring’ continued with the food as well with a dessert named “spring of the Korean people” on the table. A south Korean child sang”spring in my hometown” to extend the theme.
The two first ladies kept holding their hands for most part and later watched a special performance celebrating the historical summit together. Later they exchanged hugs as Ri left with her husband for Pyongyang.
Citizens of both countries were thrilled to see both the ladies together on live TV as much as they were when they saw their husbands the other day. People are hopeful that the warmth and bonhomie shown are the indication of the best days to come.
