The rhetorical battle between the two Koreas intensified after a South Korean official said that North Korea 'must disappear soon'.
The comments were made by South Korean Defense Ministry spokesman Kim Min-seok after a series of sexist and racist slurs made by North Korea against South Korea and the United States leaders. Pyongyang has been ramping up its rhetoric against Seoul and Washington since Obama and Park met in Seoul last month.
Min-seok told reporters at a briefing in Seoul that North Korea is not a real country and exists for the benefit of only one person, making a reference to dictator Kim Jong Un.He said the North has no human rights or public freedoms.
