Ivanka Trump visits the USA House on February 24, 2018 in Pyeongchang-gun, South Korea.

Ivanka Trump, President Donald Trump's eldest daughter, arrived in South Korea on Friday to meet with the country's president, cheer on American athletes competing in the 2018 Winter Olympics, and lead the US delegation into the closing ceremony, which takes place on February 25.

The first daugher's diplomatic visit has captivated South Koreans, and her arrival was covered live on local TV.

"It is a great honor to be here in South Korea with the US delegation," Trump told reporters upon arriving at Incheon Airport. "We are very, very excited to attend the 2018 Winter Olympic Games, to cheer for team USA and to reaffirm our strong and enduring commitment with the people of the Republic of Korea."
