Dad organizes K-pop party but uses the wrong Korea reference

This is a two-panel humorous meme. The overlaid text at the top reads 'When dad organized a k-pop party but doesn't know which Korea'. The left panel shows a teen girl with a deadpan, unimpressed expression standing in front of a custom party poster: the poster features an edited photo of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un wearing a party hat, surrounded by illustrated party balloons, with custom text below his photo. The right panel shows the girl's father standing next to the same poster, grinning proudly next to a small table holding a decorated party cake, while the girl stands off to the side still looking underwhelmed. The joke stems from the father's confusion between South Korea (the origin country of K-pop music) and North Korea, leading him to accidentally use a portrait of the North Korean leader as decoration for his child's K-pop themed party.
