Humans are naturally curious beings and seeing a random argument between your neighbor and her teenage son will have some people outside taking their goldfish for a walk just to gawk.

As one of the world’s most isolated countries, North Korea exerts a unique fascination in the Western imagination. It’s easy to misrepresent a place which is so secretive, and which has little opportunity to correct the record.
