Video: North Korea: Kim Jong-un and wife attend lively New Year concert KRT said Kim Jong-un and his wife Ri welcomed the New Year with a fireworks display joined by guests including foreign ambassadors. The pair then attended a concert entitled "following the Party to the End" by the couple's favoured Moranbong Band. Pyongyang and Seoul are technically still at war in the absence of a peace treaty to end their 1950-53 conflict.
