SEOUL - She shops for fish for her family and is not afraid to go out in public in her slippers without a fancy hairdo, but one thing sets "Happy Mrs Jung-sook" apart from other South Korean housewives.
She is the first lady of South Korea, the wife of popular new liberal President Moon Jae-in.
Kim Jung-sook's upbeat personality and unprecedented openness have earned her the nickname. In a month since Moon's election win, she has set herself apart from former first ladies who lived quietly in their husbands' shadows.
