An Australian-Chinese musician has been making waves in Hong Kong for being North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un lookalike.

The 34-year-old music producer, called 'Howard,' decided to shave his head in April to look more like Kim after his friends repeatedly kept telling of the resemblance, News.com.au reports.

Later, he set up a Facebook page and within weeks he was hired by an Israeli company and flown to Tel Aviv to star in a hamburger commercial.

He was also in talks to star in an advertisement for pistachio nuts with former NBA player Dennis Rodman, but had to pull out when he couldn't get his US work visa.

Howard charges 645 dollars for a party appearance and is unwittingly making extra money.
