FFS, “Silla was a Korean kingdom that existed between 57 BCE – 935 CE”, this is a priceless national treasure. And it’s been given to a toddler.
Yeah, people are focusing on in the symbolism of the crown as a gift and ignoring how insane it is to give a priceless historical artifact to an erratic foreign leader. How is that even something a Korean politician can give in the first place?
Edit: It’s a replica. Goddamnit Independent. That’s sort of an important distinction to note.
I’m so glad it’s a replica!!! Thanks for your investigating it. I’m sure dementia don is quite happy with it. smh.
Couldn’t they have made a new crown from scratch? God, really??? I hope they’ll at least place it in a museum
