A spokesman for the U.S. Pacific Command said the missile appeared to have exploded within seconds of launching from the Kalma peninsula, in the eastern part of the country.
South Korea's military said the apparent test launch did not go off normally.
Neither country gave details about what type of missile was tested, and both said they were continuing to analyze the launch.
Earlier this month, North Korea fired four ballistic missiles into the sea off Japan in response to annual U.S.-South Korea military drills, which the North sees as a preparation for war.
Three of the missiles flew about 1,000 kilometers and landed in Japanese waters, the Pentagon said. U.S. officials said the weapons were medium-range rockets that did not pose a threat to North America.美國和韓國說,朝鮮星期三進行的導彈試射失敗。
美軍太平洋司令部發言人說,看來導彈從朝鮮東部葛麻半島發射幾秒鐘後爆炸。
韓國軍方說,看來朝鮮進行的試射沒有正常完成。
美國和韓國都沒有具體說朝鮮試射導彈的類型,雙方都說正在繼續分析這次導彈試射。
3月早些時候,朝鮮向日本沿海海域發射了4枚彈道導彈,迴應美韓年度聯合軍演。朝鮮將美韓軍演視爲戰爭準備。
美國五角大樓說,4枚導彈中的3枚飛行約1000公里後落入日本水域。美國官員說,朝鮮發射的是中程導彈,對北美不構成威脅。
