HANOI ― President Moon Jae-in and first lady Kim Jung-sook had breakfast at a local restaurant in Vietnam, Saturday, on the last day of their state visit to the Southeast Asian country.

It was part of their effort to have close contact with Vietnamese people.

They visited an outlet of Pho 10 Ly Quoc Su, a famous rice noodle soup franchise that not only Vietnamese people but also Korean tourists often visit.

Moon and Kim had the noodle soup, tea and coffee, alongside many other Vietnamese customers also dining there.
