South Korean president Yoon Suk Yeol’s recent visit to the White House concluded with a memorable moment as he sang Don McLean’s American Pie, earning enthusiastic applause. This occurred during a state dinner in his honor, where the South Korean leader showcased his affection for American music.

President Yoon and Joe Biden discussed North Korean aggression and nuclear war during his six-day state visit to Washington. At the dinner, Biden mentioned that American Pie was one of Yoon’s favorite songs and encouraged him to sing it. Yoon, who had admired the song since his school days, obliged by performing its initial lines a cappella, which delighted the audience and the Bidens.

The unexpected performance was captured in a trending video, showcasing the seemingly impromptu and heartwarming moment.
