North Korean leader Kim Jong-un visited the country's embassy in Hanoi on Tuesday afternoon, hours after arriving here for a summit with U.S. President Donald Trump.
Kim left his hotel by his bulletproof limousine at around 5:03 p.m. and arrived at the embassy just a few minutes later. As the car stopped in front of the main gate, he was seen disembarking and walking into the compound. He was surrounded by a team of bodyguards dressed in black suits.
Kim arrived in the Vietnamese capital earlier in the day, wrapping up a nearly 70-hour train and road journey from Pyongyang. (Yonhap)
