日 예능방송에 등장한 北 김정은 위원장…아나운서는 ‘급사과’ 무슨 일?

An unexpected appearance by Kim Jong Un on a Japanese morning variety show led the host to apologize.

On the 1st, a scene featuring Kim and a North Korean military parade was suddenly broadcast for 8 seconds on Japan’s TBS show, Love it! Although the scheduled footage should have followed the commercials, an unexpected broadcasting accident occurred.

To give a Korean example, it was as if footage from North Korea had aired on a program like Achim Madang of KBS, causing a stir among netizens. After the scene aired, the show’s host, Mako Tamura, apologized, explaining that “the footage, which was prepared for use in emergencies, was mistakenly played.”

Japanese netizens who saw the footage reacted with comments such as “This is too scary,” “I was shocked,” and “Why is North Korean footage being shown in Japan?”

Meanwhile, Love It! is a morning information variety show broadcast on TBS, a private Japanese broadcaster. It is mainly hosted by comedians and idol singers.
