North Korea insults Obama with racist barbs, South Korea's Park with sexist ones
STORY HIGHLIGHTS
KCNA describes Obama with racial slurs
The piece repeatedly likens Obama to a monkey
North Korea state media often ridicules state officials, including South Korean president
(CNN) -- Vitriolic insults hurled by North Korea's state-run media are so frequent that they're usually not news.
But recent KCNA articles use such racially-charged rhetoric that they have drawn criticism from the White House's National Security Council, which called them "particularly ugly and disrespectful."
North Korea's state media KCNA described President Barack Obama using racial epithets and likened him to a "wicked black monkey."
The most offensive piece, published in Korean on May 2 under the title "Divine punishment to the world's one and only delinquent Obama," repeatedly refers to him as a monkey.
"You can also tell this by his appearance and behavior, and while it may be because he is a crossbreed, one cannot help thinking the more one sees him that he has escaped from a monkey's body," it stated.
It's not unusual for North Korea's propagandists to hurl vitriol at state leaders -- especially those from the U.S. and South Korea.
But the intensity and sheer volume of racial slurs in this latest piece surprised North Korea watchers.
Recently, KCNA has directed misogynistic slurs at South Korea's President Park Geun-hye, calling her an "indecent philistine and vile prostitute serving the U.S." They've accused her of bungling the Sewol ferry accident and criticized her close association with U.S., saying she has a mental disease.

The racist rant on Obama was flagged by a blog, One Free Korea, which started the entry with, "Oh, yes they did" and highlighted excerpts from the epithet-laced official news service.
A KCNA Watch tool shows that both Obama and Park have been increasingly mentioned in recent months, as North Korea watchers anticipate that the country may conduct its fourth nuclear test.

「光復軍」記念碑完成へ 中韓連携鮮明に5月13日 4時25分 日本による朝鮮半島の植民地時代に当時の独立運動家が中国国内で創設した軍事組織について、その記念碑が近く中国で完成することになり、歴史認識問題で対立する日本をけん制するため中国と韓国が連携する姿勢が鮮明になっています。
ことし３月、中国の習近平国家主席が韓国のパク・クネ大統領と首脳会談した際に、日本の朝鮮半島の植民地支配に抵抗した独立運動家による軍事組織「光復軍」の記念碑が中国で建てられていることを発表しました。
中国外務省の華春瑩報道官は１２日の記者会見で、この記念碑が、軍事組織「光復軍」の活動していた陝西省西安に近く完成することを明らかにしました。
華報道官は「完成後、除幕式が行われるだろう。国家も民族も歴史を記憶しなければならない」と述べました。
中国ではことし１月にも、韓国の独立運動家で、初代韓国統監を務めた伊藤博文元総理大臣を暗殺したアン・ジュングンをたたえた記念館が造られたばかりで、歴史認識問題で対立する日本をけん制するため中韓両国が連携する姿勢が鮮明になっています。
