SEOUL/BEIJING: Chinese leader Xi Jinping rarely appears in selfies. But at South Korean President Lee Jae Myung’s request, Xi gamely posed for one with Lee at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing after a state banquet held in the latter’s honour on Jan 5. He then posed for another shot with Lee and their spouses.
Xi even quipped after the selfie was taken: “The photo-taking skill is not bad!”
