I don't know about that - from what I've seen of their comedy shows, Koreans aren't exposed to much satire. Seems like slap-stick and physical comedy rule supreme on their airwaves.

Given that Koreans laugh at my pronunciation, I think they'd find Colbert's pronunciation hilarious. The whole clip was great. I laughed out loud when he started waving the Nork flag with the subtitle reading "Please don't hurt us".

Reserve judgement until you actually see the show.

I personally think it's better than the Daily Show now.
