"Canada and South Korea Strengthen Ties in Defense, Minerals, and Politics"

TL;DR Summary
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's "manner legs" pose during a photo op with South Korean politicians, meant to level the height difference between him and the Korean national assembly speaker, has split critics. While Korean media praised the gesture, some Canadians accused Trudeau of embarrassing Canada while abroad. This is not the first time Trudeau's greetings with political leaders have received attention, with his fumbling handshakes and propensity to appear shirtless also making headlines. During his visit to Seoul, Trudeau also met with President Yoon Suk Yeol and visited the grave of a Canadian missionary who supported Korean independence.
