South Korean President Lee Jae-myung on Wednesday presented President Donald Trump with South Korea’s highest honor, the Grand Order of Mugunghwa, along with a replica of the golden Cheonmachong crown.

“We present this gold crown to you on this joyous occasion of your state visit to Gyeongju because it symbolizes the spirit of Silla, which brought peace to the Korean Peninsula for the first time, and the opening of the golden age of the Korea-U.S. alliance,” said South Korean Deputy Foreign Minister for Protocol Affairs Kim Tae-jin.

Kim said the crown symbolizes “divine connection between the authority of the heavens and sovereignty on Earth, as well as the strong leadership and authority of a leader.”

Lee then awarded Trump with the Grand Order of Mugunghwa to commemorate his efforts as a peacemaker, on the Korean Peninsula and around the world. Trump is the first U.S. president to receive the honor.
