North Korea Mocks Obama on National TV

The North Korea aired a satirical political comedy mocking U.S. President Barack Obama.

The country's version of Saturday Night Live boasted an episode titled "The Stage of Optimism that Songun Presented - Volume 11" and aired last Sept. 1 at state-owned Korea Central Television (KCTV) channel, USA Today reported.

Mr. Obama was represented by an actor with a bloody bandage around his head. The actor said "I smacked my head on the bathroom floor... and I was shocked by the North Korea's hydrogen bomb detonation."

The actor playing the secretary of the president inquired, "So, Mr. President, you were testing the hardness of your skull while the North was testing its hydrogen bomb?"

The secretary also asked, "Mr. President, are you just going to let North Korea - who stabbed in our ribs - to do whatever they want to?" "I will zip my mouth," Mr. Obama answered.

The North Korean program also regarded the envoys of South Korea as "dog on the run" whereas the Japanese was called "monkey." The show also described the South Koreans as "oppressed" and "purged" by the state.

The senior South Korean police officer said "Granny Park in the Blue House is enraged as the anti-American sentiment is rising in the South." The actor also added that whoever punches, frowns and squints at the United States will be arrested.

This is the first time the communist nation explicitly used satires related to the United States and neighbor South Korea to deliver comedy to the public.

The show which lasted for 80 minutes was also uploaded on YouTube by user Uriminzokkiri.

According to NK News, the database reveals that the ninth volume of the show was televised in may 2012 while volume 10 aired August this year, marking a four years interval between the program. No sources explaining the long hiatus of the program were provided.
