What better way to mark my 50th birthday than my first drive across the Sino-Korean Friendship Bridge from #NorthKorea into #China ? Crosses the Yalu River from Sinuiju to Dandong. #britishembassy #Pyongyang

The open road in #NorthKorea - driving from #Pyongyang towards the Chinese border for a quick trip. Not many vehicles on the roads in the countryside

Cicadas are the sound of summer in both South and #NorthKorea . But did you know they speak with different accents? Here is a #Pyongyang cicada... #평양매미 #북남매미 #britishembassy #DPRK

Busy day at the beach in #NorthKorea - a day trip to Nampo on a public holiday, it seems many people in #Pyongyang had the same idea #DPRK #britishembassy

Today we mourn the passing of HM Queen Elizabeth II. She served our country tirelessly for 70 years. Like many Koreans, I have fond memories of her State Visit to Korea in 1999. May she rest in peace. God save the King.

Last night’s #DPRK #ROK #WorldCup #football match in #Pyongyang #NorthKorea was hotly contested but teams’ mutual respect was clear. A shame there were so few spectators #BritishEmbassy

윤석열 대통령님께서 오늘 오후 영국 대사 관저에 방문하시고 엘리자베스 2세 조문록에 서명해 주셔서 진심으로 감사드립니다. Honoured that @President_KR Yoon Suk Yeol came to @UKinKorea today to sign the condolence book for HM The Queen. @FMParkJin

Very sad news today of the death of HRH The Duke of Edinburgh. This photo was taken when he visited Panmunjom, on the border between South and #NorthKorea , during HM The Queen’s State Visit to the Republic of Korea on 21 April 1999.
