You're not even allowed to travel there on vacation, so I strongly doubt that you'd be able to move there. Can't compete in the Pyongyang Race anymore either, only one of like 3 country passports that don't qualify. The USAians who did were all people who ended up there during the Korean War and stayed on that side of the border.
can you feel the FREEEEDOM?
in the 1980s this type of restriction was constantly whined about to demonize the socialist bloc
Wasn’t there a US soldier who tried to defect to the DPRK but was turned down not long back?
Yeah he SA'd a young girl I believe and tried to seek refuge in the DPRK. He'd have had better luck going back to america and becoming a priest.
Yes. He was in US military custody and somehow managed to run across the DMZ. He made up all kinds of claims but it turned out he was wanted for SA and was being taken to the US for discipline. The DPRK ultimately deported him back to the US.
