Friendly Father

  • ... that the North Korean propaganda song "Friendly Father" went viral on TikTok following its release, with some users comparing it to the songs of Swedish supergroup ABBA?
  • Source: Mao, Frances (3 May 2024). "TikTok loves North Korea's latest propaganda bop. Why?". BBC. Retrieved 11 May 2024. When North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un released his latest song two weeks ago, surely he couldn't have foreseen it becoming a hit on TikTok. But the propaganda tune has gone viral online with Gen Z users bopping around to the synthy-electro pop. ... But there is a certain Soviet-era tinge to it; Gen Z users describe it as 'Abba-coded', a reference to the Swedish superband.

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Nifty, precise article. Nicely written, well sourced and verifiable. The only copied parts are quotes, which are cited so no issues there. The article had some minor copy editing issues, and I've done them myself (also removed half a sentence for which I was unable to find any supporting reference). It's now good to go. Small note: It'd be better if you wiki-linked the publications of the citations. I've also adjusted the hook (Tik Tok - TikTok).
