The royal couple last met with Jung-Sook and his wife in October 2019 when they attended a gala in Seoul during a two-day visit to the country to discuss economy and trade.
Yesterday Letizia stepped out with husband once again, as he was awarded the first Andalucian Medal of Honour at San Telmo Palace.
The King is the first person to achieve this distinction because he ’embodies the most solid affective bond of Andalucia with all the State institutions,’ according to the Junta de Andalucía.
