I would dread going to such a bipolar country. You never know if they are going to throw you in jail for being a perceived spy or something to that extent...

Any money spent there will go directly into Kim Jong-un's bank account.

I'd love to go to Pyongyang. How fascinating it would be. Like nowhere else on earth.

Wanna get kidnapped and held as a spy in order to get something in trade from your country?

Join a tour to Sinuiju!

Easy on the paranoia people. I think NK would be fascinating.

I kind of agree. I would like to go, yes, I know it is laced from top to bottom with propaganda, but it's a country that 95% of the rest of the world NEVER gets to see, so I think it would be intriguing just from that POV to see what it would be like.

$200-330 a day?!?!? I could go to a country worth going to for that much. Funny the money they get will be used for weapons that will be used against you in the future. You give them money and they build bombs to try and bargain for food. Their food has to be worst than the Chinese. Expect cyanide not salt on your food. Also I could see them trying to hack all of your computers and phones if you dare take them with you.

Yeah but how many people can say they've been to North Korea?
