north korea (dprk) master thread

[Cars]

the most secretive country in the world has had it's borders closed ever since covid however i have contacted a tour agency who told me that theres some hints of it being reopened in the near future.
visiting north korea can only be done with a tour agency and being able to bring in religous articles and davening 3 times a day can only be arranged in a private tour.
being very fascinated by the dprk i allways wanted very much to visit north korea was wondering if theres a heimishe group going there

If D-rod decides to take Amare on his next visit... Is that heimish enough for you?

[yitzgar]

Imo visiting a place like this is only lending them legitimacy. Whatever you see will be curated to show a false narrative of what is actually going on.

D-Rod = Dennis Rodman, all-star basketball player, famous friend of the Kims.
Amare = Amare Stoutamire, all-star basketball player, Ger Tzedek.

A joke is like a frog....

Finally a Pesach program I'd be comfortable running. No food = no kashrus issues!

And I was only going to suggest visiting some other Democratic country instead, like Israel where the front page of all newspapers this week looked like they were modeled after a true democracy like the DPRK.

I'm not sure about that one. I don't think he said anything at that point. Though his family provably did.
