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.

I'm sorry but thats a pretty large leap of logic, and I doubt that there's anyone who's going to link this guy to the government of North Korea or its people.
And because of the massive amount of news about the problems in North Korea I think that there's a pretty good mass majority that knows that South Korea and North Korea are not only two different countries, but that South Korea is an ally.
Why would you insert a American's are ignorant shot into this news story. It makes no sense?
