My life in North Korea vs South Korea
UPDATE. A year after publishing this video, I decided to make another video that explains why it might not be a good idea to travel to North Korea yourself: I know it's ironic of me to say it as I've been there myself, but please think twice before making that decision. Also, if you want to learn more about the history of North Korea, watch this other video I made that's only 4 minutes long:

One year ago I went on a strictly guided 7 day-tour in North Korea where they took away my passport and did not allow me to explore anything on my own. North Korea was definitely the weirdest country I had ever visited and throughout that trip I kept wondering what life was like in the neighboring South Korea, because it used to be the same country just over 60 years ago.
To answer my questions, this year I traveled to South Korea and made this video, where I compare my time in the North and my time in the South. I still have a lot of questions about the whole situation, but one thing was clear - the daily lives of the Korean people couldn't be any more different than they are right now.
My favorite books about North Korea:
Dear Leader by Jang Jin Sung -
Escape From Camp 14 by Blaine Harden -
Nothing To Envy by Barbara Demick -
1984 by George Orwell (I couldn't believe how similar some things in North Korea felt to the ones in the book) -

North Korea, What it's like to Visit! ???????? - Not what you'd expect ???? ????????
I got to visit North Korea in 2013 with Young Pioneer Tours when it was still legal for Americans to go. Follow my travels: No politics here, just showing you what a tour through North Korea and Pyongyang is like. [???? Blog Post:
Extremely few Americans that has ever step foot in North Korea (not counting the DMZ). I got to visit Pyongyang, Kaesong, the DMZ, Nampho, and flew back to Dandong where I explored the border as well before heading on a ferry boat from Dandong to Incheon South Korea. I mixed some of my own North Korea vLog footage with that from the tour video I got at the end of my North Korea Tour. Unfortunately due to due to Coronavirus / Covid-19 pandemic, as of 2020 both the North Korean border and Chinese border is shut so it will be hard to visit until 2021 at the earliest. While there was certainly a lot (i.e. tons) of propaganda, there were definitely many real moments with the citizens of North Korea was well. We got to visit sites like the Pyongyang Maternity Hospital, the demilitarized zone, a factory in Nampho, the Mansundae grand Hill Monument, Kim Il Sung Square and other spots that most tourists will be taken too. We were monitored by multiple minders at all time who were also monitoring each other. While much of the tour around Pyongyang was what I expected, other aspects surprised me. Don't tell my dog Murph but I may or may not have eaten dog meat ????
What is a North Korea tour like? What is it like to visit North Korea? Watch the video to find out! *NOTE if you're curious where I got some of the funky audio and music it was taken from a 90 minute DVD that was given to us at the end of the tour.
For more info I also wrote a 40 page article article on my friend Dave's blog about the experience. Shoutout to Gareth Johnson from Young Pioneer Tours and Dave Lee from Gobackpacking.com for helping me put this together.
