Expressing his pride to receive the honor, Kwang Han pledged to try harder in helping more Koreans know about Vietnam.

He said he is working to push for the establishment of a direct flight between Hue and Namyangju.

The RoK mayor has made a series of efforts to boost ties between the two cities, resulting in the sides’ signing in October 2018 of a memorandum of understanding on fostering bilateral exchanges and cooperation in economy, tourism, culture, history, and other sectors of common interest.
