Kim Hong Un attends rare concert by South Korean entertainers

The visit came as months of diplomatic tensions quickly thawed on the peninsula. This was the first time a North Korean leader has attended a South Korean performance in the capital. Kim was seen clapping in tune to some of the songs and took photographs with the performers after the show.

Sunday's concert was held under the title "Spring is Coming" at the East Pyongyang Grand Theatre, performed by an elite lineup of South Korean artists. The same South Korean singers will hold a joint concert with North Korean performers on April 3.
