Chinese term or phrase: 鲁大人
北高丽和南高丽之间是一条国家间的实线,但天朝和北高丽之间,竟然是条虚线。谷歌谷歌,你有幽怨可理解,但这样做,安的是什么心?得让鲁大人跟你好好谈谈。This comes at the end of a news article criticizing Kim Jong-un and and the last minute cancellation of several performances of North Korean entertainment groups in Beijing.

English translation:Your excellency Lu
Explanation:
Mr. Lu Wei might be correct, but the original text was trying to deliver a humorous effect as "大人" is a title used in imperial court in ancient China, it's absolutely not usual to call anyone "大人" in modern times unless it's for the sake of rhetoric.
