Yeah, I agree, but it's something the media does all the time.
"Iranian citizen", "Black male", etc.
The sad thing is, the unaware in the US will automatically associate this person from South Korea (and the country of South Korea) to the crazed lunatic up in North Korea, not knowing that these are two separate countries.
