The North Korean Central Television has shown an image of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un attending a concert where the theme song of an American movie was played.

Images of the concert that Kim attended show a band playing the theme song from ‘Rocky,’ an American film about a boxer starring Sylvester Stallone.

The concert also showed parts from the movie where Rocky is striking his opponent from Soviet Russia.

It is unprecedented for the main character of a U.S. flick to be portrayed in a positive light in the communist state.

The song "My Way," which was popularized by American singer Frank Sinatra, was also performed at the concert.

People dressed up as major Disney characters also took to the stage, including Mickey Mouse.
