The Vice Guide to North Korea: I saw this linked at TMB. You have see this mini-documentary. It is definitely eye-opening.

North Korea is such an Isolated place that it isn’t easy to get inside. These folks found a way inside with their camera. What they see is a little shocking…

~Hotels that are nearly empty

~ A lot of fake smiles and happy faces from the people that work from the government

~It’s as if everyone there is putting on a show.

~There is an almost religious view of their leader Kim Jong-il and his father. You can’t stand in front of an image of Jong-il if you’re taking a picture.

~You have to check out the library scene. Freaking amazing

~During their visit, there is no sight of the thousands starving and dying anywhere

~One of the loose places in actually the check points, where on the other side the American/South Korean check points are very restrictive. (You can't point at a North Korean soldier on the South Korean side.)
