So he acted as if this wasn't a big deal.

Oh, so all you guys now are under suspicion.

Every single one of you that are on that trip are now under suspicion.

Yeah, that's what we're told.

So that's what we're told.

All our passports are taken from us.

And obviously, thank you so much, Mr. Porno.

Then obviously the jovial sort of we've arrived in Pyongyang, look out the window, the environment becomes a little more scary.

As you can imagine, you don't have your passport now and you're in North Korea.

Not a great feeling.

But, you know, we've got another eight days here.

So at that point, it's just like, oh, you know, make the most of it, right?

And so basically what happens over the next sort of, I guess, five days of this is they do the entire, you know, you go on the entire trip that you've seen in every documentary.

They take you to the tower, the Juche Tower, which is a big tower in Pyongyang.

They take you to see the museum where they talk about, you know, how bad America is and, you know, all that kind of stuff and their version of the Korean War.

And basically you go through this whole sort of,

uh tour if you like so you go on that and then the last couple of days so we get to i think it was day six and to be honest you make all we did there i mean once you go on the tour they take you back to the hotel and you're not allowed to leave the hotel and go anywhere else and the hotel has very few things in it has a buffet where they feed you it has a pool room that's a bit run down and a karaoke bar

As previously mentioned, if travelling to North Korea is a tourist, you must follow every and all rules given.

Even seemingly innocent pranks can mean horrendous outcomes.

In 2016, American tourist Otto Womber entered North Korea as part of a guided tour group.
