My 3 Day Trip to North Korea (Not What You Think)

We fly to Pyongyang for a three-day guided tour, exploring the city’s squares, monuments, Juche Tower, underground metro, restaurants, bars, and entertainment venues. We run a 10K in the Pyongyang Marathon and speak with local people in Korean while observing everyday life and preparations for a national celebration. We leave with an appreciation for the warmth and talents of the people we meet, but also with questions about the staged presentation of society and the restrictions on information and freedom.
