South Korea Gives Trump A Literal Crown Weeks After ‘No Kings’ Rallies

South Korea gifted President Donald Trump an enormous crown during his visit on Wednesday, just weeks after the “No Kings” protest in the U.S.

South Korean President Lee Jae Myung gave Trump the gift as part of his East Asian diplomatic blitz, shoring up America’s alliances in the region before a high-stakes meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit Thursday. The crown is a replica of the crowns worn by the kings of the Silla kingdom, which ruled Korea for over 1,000 years until the 10th century.

The “No Kings” protests lasted only a few days in the U.S., but other protestors in Korea used its themes during demonstrations on Wednesday during Trump’s visit.

South Korea has been one of America’s longest-standing allies in East Asia since the U.S. led the United Nations (UN) to push back the North Koreans during the Korean War in the 1950s.

Trump previously visited Japan the day before, being gifted the late former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s putter. The two leaders were known to be good friends and often golfed together.
