SEOUL - South Korean President Moon Jae In will mark his first year in office on Thursday (May 10) in a "humble, honest" manner without any special events, according to his office.
This low-key approach is in stark contrast to the euphoria still running high in the country, as city governments and major companies rush to unveil plans for inter-Korea projects and exchanges aligned with the historic meeting between Mr Moon and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un two weeks ago.
