Infiltrating North Korea

by Neil Woodburn

Infiltrating North Korea follows Neil Woodburn as he peels back the curtain and peeks into the most peculiar, oddball member nation of the Axis of Evil. Visiting this reclusive, enigmatic country is like traveling back in time to Stalin’s Soviet Union; red banners hang from light posts, portraits of Marx and Lenin are showcased in the central square, and countless statues and monuments paying homage to the Cult of Kim permeate the landscape.  There is really nothing quite like it anywhere else.
