Hear South Korea's President Yoon sing 'American Pie' at White House state dinner

At the end of a festive dinner at the White House on Wednesday, President Joe Biden, first lady Jill Biden, President Yoon and his wife, Kim Keon Hee, moved from the East Room to the State Dining Room for the entertainment part of the evening, a string of professionally performed Broadway musical numbers.

After Broadway stars Norm Lewis, Lea Salonga and Jessica Vosk sang a handful of soaring pieces, including selections from "Les Miserables" and "Funny Girl," Jill Biden announced a special encore: a serenade by the singers of the pop song "American Pie," a Yoon favorite.

Instant classic moment. The most well received foreign leader in USA in more than 10 years. This is how you foster cooperation. Basic diplomacy.

Greetings from Quincy, Massachusetts. President Yoon gets an A+ for choice of song. He got a very different reception than Don McLean got in Boston when McLean first sang the song publicly. The people of Boston were objecting to McLean’s last few verses, which was pretty close to a depiction of how the world works.what a beautiful president

Wow! President Yoon certainly knows how to charm a crowd! Bravo!
Koreans are the warmth in Asia. They have so much to give and share with the world.
The talent that comes out of that small country is mind boggling. Bravo Korea!
