NORTH Korea has poached Michael Jackson's peace anthem We Are the World to soundtrack a chilling video showing a US city under missile attack.
The propaganda movie depicts a smiling lad dreaming of a regime rocket being launched into the air and travelling to America.
The three-and-a-half minute vid then shows a mystery city full of skyscrapers being attacked with multiple explosions, while the Stars and Stripes flag flutters in the background.
Captions on the screen written in Korean say: "Somewhere in the United States, black clouds of smoke are billowing.
"It seems that the nest of wickedness is ablaze with the fire started by itself."
The video ends with the lad concluding that his dream will "surely come true".
"Despite all kinds of attempts by imperialists to isolate and crush us... never will anyone be able to stop the people marching toward a final victory," it said.
The film has emerged on the day that South Korea warned that a nuclear test by the North "seems to be imminent".
Ambassador Kim Sook said there are “very busy activities” taking place at North Korea’s nuclear test site “and everybody’s watching”.
We Are the World was written by Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie in 1985 and recorded as a charity single by USA for Africa.
It sold more than 20million copies and topped charts throughout the world.
