Unlike the previous one, President Kim showed a somewhat “unconventional” disguise. He was wearing a white shirt at first, but from the middle he took it off and appeared in a short-sleeved shirt. President Kim wears short sleeves, leans his arms against the wall, burns cigarettes, and laughs with the party leaders who accompany him. There was also a scene in which they visited the flooded rice fields, held the grains in their hands, and chatted with people who appeared to be party officials.

A new coronavirus infection (Corona 19) is spreading, and both South and North Korea are paying attention to quarantine, such as wearing masks. President Moon also wore a mask in photos that contacted most but a few citizens. Rather, there were more cases of citizens meeting with President Moon not wearing masks.

On the other hand, the dress of Vice President Hyun Song-wol, who served as President Kim on this day, is also remarkable. Hyeon, who turned heads with fancy bags, dark makeup, and colorful costumes, appeared in black pants, as if considering the fact that this is a flood recovery site.
