Trump is now featured on North Korean commemorative stamps

President Trump has left his mark on North Korea. Literally.

In June, North Korea released a set of stamps commemorating the one-year anniversary of the Singapore summit, when Trump met with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in an attempt to de-escalate tensions between the two countries, as well as to nudge North Korea toward the process of denuclearization. The stamps, which were originally reported by Kyodo News, are reportedly on sale in Pyongyang and show things like Trump and Kim shaking hands or the two leaders signing a joint agreement after the meeting.

The stamps were apparently a hit, because more are on their way. The next round will reportedly center on Trump's brief but historic visit to the Korean Demilitarized Zone in June.

Hanoi likely won't get the same appreciation, though, Quartz reports, considering that meeting didn't end on the best terms, after Trump walked away abruptly.

Probably part of the NK diet at this point.
