South Korean President Lee Jae-myung held a summit with U.S. President Trump at the White House on Monday. A small incident occurred during the meeting, in which Trump praised one of Lee Jae-myung’s pens, unexpectedly causing the share price of South Korean pen company MonAmi Co. to rise to a 19-month high. On Wednesday (27th), it rose by 24% at one point, and the two-day increase was more than 60%.

Trump was fascinated by the pen during his first meeting with South Korean President Lee Jae-myung at the White House on Monday (25th). Bloomberg quoted local media JTBC News as saying that during their meeting, Trump spent nearly two minutes asking about the origins of the wooden pen and held it in his hand until the two entered a closed-door meeting.

Media reports indicate that Trump praised the pen, saying, “This pen is really nice,” “The handwriting is beautiful, and the thickness is nice.” He even asked his assistant to “get me that pen,” prompting laughter.
Lee Jae-myung then gave the pen to Trump, saying, “It will come in handy for your complex signature.”

According to the South Korean media Dong-A Ilbo, the brown pen uses a MonAmi nib, which is engraved with the traditional South Korean phoenix pattern and is handmade by Zenyle in Seoul.

A U.S. Army sergeant allegedly shot and wounded five other soldiers at Fort Stewart in Georgia, using his personal handgun, officials said.

The shooting at the 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team area was reported at 10:56 a.m and the suspect, automated logistics Sgt. Quornelius Radford, was apprehended at 11:35 a.m., Fort Stewart said. All lockdown measures have since been lifted, Brig. Gen. John Lubas, the 3rd Infantry Division and Fort Stewart-Hunter Army Airfield commander, said at a news conference.

A motive is not clear, Lubas said, but the shooting involved the 28-year-old Radford’s co-workers and was at Radford’s “place of work.” He used a personal handgun, but it’s not clear how he brought it to his workplace, Lubas added.

Lubas praised the “brave soldiers” who he said “immediately intervened” and tackled the suspect. He said they, “without a doubt, prevented further casualties.”

All five victims are in stable condition and are expected to recover, Lubas said. Hospital officials said two of the victims were rushed to Memorial Health University Medical Center in Savannah, which is a Level 1 trauma center about 40 miles from Fort Stewart.

Radford has been interviewed by Army investigators and is in pretrial confinement, Lubas said.

Radford, who is from Jacksonville, Florida, has not previously deployed to combat, Lubas said. He had been arrested locally for a DUI, Lubas said, noting the arrest was “unknown to his chain of command until the [shooting] occurred and we started looking into the law enforcement databases.”

Lubas emphasized that although it is still early in the investigation, he said they are not aware of the suspect having any prior behavioral or disciplinary issues.

Lubas also said he remains “very confident in the security” of Fort Stewart.

Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp said on social media, “We are keeping the victims, their families, and all those who answer the call to serve in our hearts and prayers.”

President Donald Trump has been briefed on the shooting, according to White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt.

“The Army Criminal Investigation Division is on site to ensure that the perpetrator of this atrocity, which is exactly what it is, will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office on Wednesday.

The full circumstances surrounding the shooting were not immediately clear.

Access to combat firearms on a U.S. military personnel on base is highly restricted, with guns kept stored in an armory on the base. Firearm use is limited to only when soldiers are participating in field training, and the guns are returned to the armory at the conclusion of that training.

Military personnel are allowed to have legally registered personal guns, but there are restrictions on how they can be brought onto a base.
