South Korea's Presidents singing at the White House.

Video. Watch: South Korea's President sings "American Pie"

Updated:

From discussing nuclear war to belting out a beloved hit: South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol's White House visit ended on a high note when he sang Don McLean's "American Pie" to great applause.

Yoon is on a six-day state visit to Washington, where he discussed with US President Joe Biden on Wednesday "the end" of any North Korean regime that used nuclear weapons against the allies.

But the two leaders had more cheerful topics on the agenda at the White House state dinner in Yoon's honour later that day, with the South Korean leader – who is known at home to be something of a karaoke buff – sharing his love of American music.
