Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright told an unusual story on Tuesday about her days as a top diplomat.

While unveiling her new pin jewelry exhibit, Albright talked about a trip to Korea a while back. A Korean foreign minister thought he wasn’t on the record and said he loved it when Albright would visit Seoul because of the nice relationship the two had.
 
“He also mentioned that when he gave me a hug I had very firm breasts,” Albright said with a chuckle. “Questions were asked about whether or not he should resign but I said I’ve got to have somewhere to put those pins!”

The exhibit, titled "Read My Pins," will open to the public on Friday at the Smithsonian Castle.
