In our section North Korea Facts & Figures we offer statistics about different aspects of the DPRK.
Population of North Korea - learn about the DPRK’s population structure, languages and religions. People in DPRK are extremely friendly with foreigners. Very few Westerners visit their country and based on our experience they are always willing to engage with us and allow us join in their dancing, picnics, games, etc. This is an aspect of the DPRK that the Western media tends to skip. |
