message: The line stating that canadians, protestants, and israelis are forbidden entry is not supported by the source that it claims to reference. Additionally a Canadian Friend of mine was there not too long ago.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.48.239.154 (talk) 06:24, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

message: "In July 2017, the U.S. government announced that American citizens would no longer be permitted to visit North Korea as tourists." - How do the US control their citizens and prevent them from taking tours to North Korea? --2A02:2454:9861:8700:DD0A:6426:7C3E:356A (talk) 21:18, 3 February 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: The same way the USA has restricted its citizens from travelling to Cuba. Theoretically a U.S. citizen could try to book a trip to North Korea via one of the handful of travel agencies that arrange such tours, but the citizen would risk prosecution by the U.S. government. It's also very likely that the travel agencies would automatically reject any application from a U.S. citizen. In the past the USA has also banned travel to various countries in the Middle East and the former Eastern Bloc without special leave of the State Department.

message: This wikipedia page mentions a north eastern region of North Korea called “Luo” that supposedly Chinese people can drive into, take picture, ect. There is no source, no wikipedia page and I can’t find anything about this on google, google maps or anything. Just making sure this is bs.

:I've seen various news reports about Chinese tourists being allowed to take part in self-driven tours of N. Korea in recent years, but admittedly I can't find any reference to any region of N. Korea called "Luo". Unless perhaps the area is known by different names in the Chinese and Korean languages.  any ideas? —Muzilon (talk) 03:18, 23 March 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: No idea. I think this probably should be removed as it has no citation.--Jack Upland (talk) 04:30, 23 March 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, I've removed those sentences. If someone can prove "Luo" exists, feel free to re-add them. —Muzilon (talk) 05:10, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
