Kim Jong Un does the ‘finger heart’ pose with South Korean officials

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un posed with the “finger heart” gesture along with South Korean officials on Mount Paektu, as seen on official photos published by the Blue House on Sunday.

Seoul Foreign Minister Kang-Hwa suggested the pose according to the Blue House’s official Twitter account. The finger heart is a hand gesture done by crossing the thumb and index fingers together and is usually seen in pictures of K-pop artists and fans alike.

To cap off their three-day summit, Kim met with South Korean President Moon Jae-in and other officials at the peak of Mount Paektu, along the North Korea-China border on Thursday, Sept. 20.
