Getting into North Korea was one of the hardest and weirdest processes VBS has ever dealt with. After we went back and forth with their representatives for months, they finally said they were going to allow 16 journalists into the country to cover the Arirang Mass Games in Pyongyang. Then, ten days before we were supposed to go, they said, "No, nobody can come." Then they said, "OK, OK, you can come. But only as tourists." We had no idea what that was supposed to mean. They already knew we were journalists, and over there if you get caught being a journalist when you're supposed to be a tourist you go to jail. We don't like jail. And we're willing to bet we'd hate jail in North Korea.

@spungray yugoslavia 1980 had about 2 million active military personel, 1 million reserves, and 8 million people with 6 months long military training, bigger then us or chinese army now...
-
That is incorrect, the Korean People's Army has about four million active troops within the country, and around 1,5 million are at the DMC (The Border between North and South) and the reserves according to UN Officials are numbered up to about five millions, which makes it a total of 9,5 million troops within North Korea. And according to other UN records North Korea or the ''Democratic People's Republic of Korea'' has the fourth largest army in the world.

@machetezone Not really. They have a massive army, but they couldn't feed it if it was in a war.
-
North Korea is not 100% homogeneous, there are americans living there too
-
One does not simply walk into North Korea.

@Tsvetanof North Korea and Cuba are entirely incomparable in every sense. Cuba has a history of imprisoning some dissident journalists and censoring some websites, sure, it's not a human rights oasis, but it's not even on the same scale as North Korea's reactionary despotism and terrifying authoritarianism.
