Ask what Korea is talking about.

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un visited China on Saturday, inaugurating a new cross-border bridge and meeting with Beijing's top political adviser in the border city of Dandong, according to Yonhap and the Korea Times. The trip, made days before the anniversary of Chinese troops entering the 1950-53 Korean War, was aimed at reaffirming the historic 'blood ties' between the two countries, the Korea Times reports. Korean outlets frame the visit as a reminder that the peninsula's future cannot be understood through inter-Korean relations alone, with one editorial urging that Kim's visit 'must lead to restraint.'
