The netizen seems to have confused South Korea and North Korea and misrepresented them.
Recently, an X (ex-Twitter) account that delivers various memes wishing Ukraine a victory in the war posted a propaganda poster with the Korean phrase 'Ukraine's onslaught' (@ukrnastup) 'We will behead you, Korean soldiers'.
The poster shows a Ukrainian soldier holding a knife to the neck of a soldier believed to be Asian.
The poster says 'You're going to die here. We will not listen to you. You will not be savedThe phrase ' is also written.
The poster seems to have been produced by netizens to criticize North Korea's dispatch of troops to Russia as circumstances continue to show that North Korea recently dispatched troops to help Russia at war. However, it is presumed that South Korea and North Korea were confused.
In the wake of the controversy, the netizen revised some of the phrases. Currently, the poster has been deleted in violation of 'X's operating principles'.
