South Korean rapper Psy has apologised after reports emerged that he had rapped lyrics calling for American soldiers to be killed at a 2004 concert held to oppose the US-led invasion of Iraq.

Here is an extract from the controversial song, called Dear American:

Kill those fucking Yankees who have been torturing Iraqi captives/Kill those fucking Yankees who ordered them to torture/Kill their daughters, mothers, daughters-in-law, and fathers/Kill them all slowly and painfully.

The singer says he regrets using such violent language, but said the comments were made at a time when emotions were running high over the Iraq war and the deaths of the two South Korean schoolgirls who were run over by a US military vehicle.

As a proud South Korean who was educated in the United States and lived there for a very significant part of my life, I understand the sacrifices American servicemen and women have made to protect freedom and democracy in my country and around the world. I’m deeply sorry for how these lyrics could be interpreted. I will forever be sorry for any pain I have caused by those words.

The apology comes just days before he is set to perform during the White House Christmas special.
