Donald Trump has begged a lot of comparisons with the head of North Korea, from their mutual love of military parades to their at best apathetic attitude to free society in general. Now, they're also bound by a friendly pair of impersonators: A fake Donald Trump and Kim Jong-Un showed up at the Olympic opening ceremony, to the delight of selfie-wanting attendees and, presumably, the confusion of people who didn't realize right away they were impersonators.

The fake Kim Jong-Un, who goes by the stage name Howard X, said their motivation was to show the world what Trump and Kim coming together would look like. "We get along personally, so I believe that Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un, if they talked, they’d probably get along. Because in my opinion, they’re pretty much the same person,” he said, according to The Hill. "So let’s start talking and stop with all the missiles and everything else," he added.

In a weird bit of irony though, the two world leader impersonators were quickly escorted away from the media section by security after causing a commotion. They were just returned to their seats, but it does sound like they were close to causing an actual international incident. According to Agence France Presse:

Fake Kim admitted that he and Trump substitute Dennis Alan had failed to get close enough to interact with athletes, including the two Koreas who marched together behind the blue-and-white unification flag.

They were also not able to get close to the VIP area, where US Vice-President Mike Pence and the real Kim's sister Kim Yo Jong were in attendance.

So they wanted to get close to Mike Pence and a relative of Kim Jong-Un, two people who aren't known for being super appreciative of jokes. It doesn't take an international relations expert to know that's not the best way to avoid dying under mysterious circumstances.
