South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol arrived in the House chamber Thursday to bipartisan applause as he prepared to address a joint session of Congress. Yoon's remarks to lawmakers come a day after an official White House state visit - only the second of President Joe Biden's presidency. The state visit comes as the U.S. and South Korea mark the 70th year of the countries' alliance that began at the end of the Korean War and committed the United States to help South Korea defend itself, particularly from North Korea.
