U.S. President called South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol, “Mr. Moon” on November 29, apparently mixing him up with Yoon’s predecessor, Moon Jai-in.

Biden made the error during a visit to wind tower manufacturing company CS Wind in Colorado. CS Wind is headquartered in South Korea, and Biden was addressing the company’s chairman, Gim Seong-gon, who was in the audience.

“I am friends with your leader, Mr. Moon, you know,” Biden said.

Moon Jai-in was the President of South Korea from 2017 until 2022, when he was succeeded by Yoon Suk Yeol.
