In as much as I agree that this isn't good and people should be allowed such freedom.....It might also be due to national security reasons.

The government knows it's got what they regard as enemies that could infiltrate the system or train their very citizens to be spies and probably doesn't want to risk such.....top government officials that handle top security and other classified positions in advanced countries also face such restrictions.....the only difference is NKs own (if true) is probably applicable to all citizens.

I don't know what you guys gain by spreading propaganda about somewhere you most likely have never been to nor have first hand info about. undecided .
I travel frequently and understand the importance of researching a destination before visiting it. In 2017, I considered traveling to North Korea but ultimately decided to go to South Korea instead.

I changed my mind because my research revealed that independent travel tours are not permitted in North Korea. All foreign tourists are required to join government-approved guided tours, accompanied at all times by official guides who manage movement and interactions. Visitors must follow strict regulations concerning photography, speech, and conduct.

Travel in North Korea is restricted to organized groups through authorized agencies, and tourists are limited to pre-approved sites and activities.

I know most of these but like I said....the government is trying to avoid an slight chance to those whom they view as potential spies or her enemies....looking at global events you'll see that media and spies have been playing an important role in warfare and Kim is trying everything possible not to give that a chance in his own way.......His methods may be harsh but those people he is trying to protect his country from always fuming could also mean it might be working and limiting diverse leverage and informations they could get about his country which will make it harder to infiltrate.

Apart from insecurities....I'd rather me stay in my country or other African countries and some Asian countries....I wouldn't mind taking a trip to NK just like many other countries which I don't fancy permanently staying there but wouldn't mind taking a trip there. cheesy .
