Associated Press/December 15, 2011

Seoul, South Korea -- The youngest son of Unification Church founder Rev. Sun Myung Moon has met with North Korea's ceremonial head of state.

Footage Thursday from Associated Press Television News in Pyongyang showed Moon Hyung-jin speaking with North Korea's parliamentary head Kim Yong Nam.

Moon's 91-year-old father maintains links with Pyongyang and the church owns Pyeonghwa Motors in the North.

The 32-year-old son is an ordained minister who is expected to take over the multibillion-dollar religious and business empire. His father calls himself a messiah sent to complete Jesus Christ's works.

Moon's trip coincides with the 20th anniversary of a visit by his father to North Korea and a meeting with founder Kim Il Sung.
