Yesung of the Korean boy band Super Junior was confused with the third son of North Korean leader Kim Jong-il by Swiss daily Blick.
The tabloid mistakenly published a picture of Yesung in a piece on Kim Jong-un, apparently confused by the fact that Yesung's real name is Kim Jong-woon.
Blick is Switzerland's largest-circulation tabloid. Yesung appeared on the front page and headline news on page 14. The news soon reached the web board of a South Korean portal site and is quickly spreading all over the Internet.
"We confirmed the news through the Internet as well and have asked Blick for a correction," a spokesperson for Super Junior said.
