The presidential office has announced that President Yoon Suk Yeol will make a state visit to Britain in November.

The top office said on Tuesday that Yoon will make the visit at the invitation of King Charles III, adding that it would be the first state visit since the king’s coronation and comes as the two nations mark the 140th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations this year.

Yoon previously traveled to Britain for a two-day trip in September of last year to attend the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II.

Yoon’s visit will be the first state visit by a South Korean president to Britain since former President Park Geun-hye’s visit in 2013, some nine years after former President Roh Moo-hyun made such a trip in 2004.
