Episode No. 2 of "South Park" season 21 titled "Put It Down" will air on Wednesday night (Thursday in Australia). According to the trailer, it seems like North Korea will play a role in the second episode of Comedy Central's iconic animated series.

During the season opener, the issue of white supremacy was tackled in the most South Park way possible, as residents of quiet mountain town blamed "Alexa" and other automated gadgets for stealing their jobs. Besides tackling the tense relations between the U.S. and North Korea, the upcoming episode will also deal with the pretend relationship between Tweek and Craig, who pretend to be a couple. "When Tweek is caught in the middle of a petty conflict, it drives his relationship with Craig to the brink," the preview reads.

The Hollywood Reporter speculates that the episode could draw parallels from the 2004 film "Team America: World Police." The puppet film was directed by Matt Stone and Trey Parker, co-creators of "South Park."

It is unclear as to the exact nature of the North Korea plot, but this is hardly the first time Trey Parker and Matt Stone have poked fun at the country's leadership. Kim Jong-il was the main villain in the duo's 2004 puppet film "Team America: World Police." In that film, the dictator is revealed to be an alien cockroach.

Earlier this year, Stone and Parker stressed why it was vital for "South Park" to return to toilet humour instead of the excessive political commentary. “That was part of the bummer for us about (the previous) season; we didn’t want to make it a big Trump thing, and we kept thinking it was going to go away and we didn’t want to get caught up in just being a political show. There’s plenty of good political comedy out there. We like to dabble in that and do that one week, but then the next week we want to do fart jokes."
