About North Korea

North Korea — officially the Democratic People's Republic of Korea — occupies the northern part of the Korean Peninsula in East Asia, bordering China, Russia, and South Korea. Since its founding in 1948, the country has been governed by the Kim dynasty and is widely regarded as one of the most isolated states in the world. Independent travel is not permitted; visits are possible only through state-approved, guided tours. Pyongyang serves as the country's political and cultural capital.
