North Korea is (by a long shot) the world's most interesting country. I visited the capital city of Pyongyang in April 2017, way back when I first got my hands on a video camera, and luckily I was able to document it. It was a wild trip, to say the least, and I'm glad that I can share my experiences with you in this video.
Buckle up for the next 9 minutes as I take you deep inside Pyongyang, North Korea to see how many things I could buy for $10 USD or less -- I think you will be quite surprised!

@Kim Jong Un Is it true? Does *Office 39* employ loyal Kkhangpae? I've heard that the Kim Cabinet grants special N. Koreans, permission to blend-in with the escaping immigrants. Under the guise of an escapee... the ploy is to simply to expand the Kkhangpae in America, while sending money back to the DPRK?? *It's daring I'll give you that.* But you won't get far without the blessing of the Sun yee On, Various Cartels, the Triads, & Gangs in Your planned areas. They'll see it as competition once it all comes to light! "We" know the DPRK & China are behind the Fetnal Crisis!

Drew for your safety, please do not visit or even consider visiting again. Even this video contains content that the government would not be happy with. 1:40 "It is not a happy place, the streets are dark and depressing. The people have a scared look on their face" and 2:46 "I took full advantage and spoke to as many locals as I could on the sidelines" this is you openly admitting and proving you broke rules in North Korea.

The perspective that is missing here is that the special food he ate at the restaurant which he ranked as cheap and low quality was far, far, far, superior to anything regular North Koreans would ever get to eat. Just the fact that there was meat there put it off the charts. Basically for $10, Drew experienced the Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous, North Korean style.

I was wondering that myself when he asked if the restaurant was for the local people too or if it was a "Stage" Restaurant for the tourists ONLY. It's surprising and yet not surprising at all. Even though Drew didn't care much for the food besides the handmade cold noodles it's still the type of food the average North Korean citizen will not get to enjoy 😞. Like you said it's basically the rich and famous lifestyle North Korean style. I'll tell you what though even if it was an all expense paid trip to North Korea I STILL wouldn't go there. I would never be able to relax there at all never knowing if I'm going to do something "wrong" according to them 😥.

There are supermarkets in Pyongyang that allow tour groups to visit and exchange money before shopping in them. You are expected to spend all of the exchanged money during the visit though. Technically it is illegal to take KRW out of the country when you leave, but they rarely check.

@@austinbevis4266 unfortunately we are not allowed to travel to any place without accomplished by a tour guide so it’s difficult for us to discover the ‘true side’ of the country behind the curtain. I still remember one night our tour guide bring us to a local pub and share a bit of his feeling about the country. He said he’d like to travel and see the world more if he had a chance but it’s nearly impossible for him to do so, he is not even allowed to travel freely within the country. And all the information they have been receiving are given by the government while they have no internet and other sources to validate it. So if the Kim’s said they are richer and living in a better situation than the ppl in the south they can only believe so. Ofcouse he show 200% believing in what the govern told him but I think he have doubt in some area ( just my assumption. Not exactly what he told us). So to conclude I think we can only see the ‘true DPRK’ while one day there will be a more open and liberated government operating the country

I went to run the full marathon in the same year, though i was on a different, longer, tour with Koryo (we were apparently on the same flight to Pyongyang as my group is seen at the check-in in Beijing). I agree with what you said and it was a truly surreal experience. Just a small correction. A few months later US citizens were not banned to enter by the DPRK, but they were prohibited to travel to DPRK after US decision.
