[@masaokakihara9316]

@@dimoned123 He had a Blog about the experience, but my aunt took it down a while after he died. They were apparently treated very well and welcoming. But they couldn't even leave the hotel's floor, without someone coming running and walking next to them. The hotel had mostly Journalists, Diplomats and economic big hats, from all over the world, who all had their own handlers. The handlers were simple people, who enjoyed being able to eat, drink and smoke western brands/goods. And so they did 24/7. They would sit all together on one side of the hotel restaurant, while the guests were on the other. He tried to roam everyday NK and was given a few opportunities to travel, with guides, even outside the Pyongyang district. But was heavily 'encouraged' to only take pictures of nice things. It was an open secret between the guests, that equipment will be searched regularly, phone calls and internet communucation recorded and the whole Hotel would be bugged. But they would never confront people who brought foreign currency. The people he worked with were very talented and dedicated in their craft, welcoming friendly, but shy to have a chat beyond work related things. Handlers would not stop nicely bragging about the superiority of their country and wouldn't believe that there's not only a small group of rich people and the rest has to struggle to eat in the West. A completely distorted image of reality. They made him do a few recommended tours to learn how the dear leaders have stopped US aggression and freed the Korean people, while their brothers in the south suffer with prostitution, drug crisis and are lapdogs of the US.
