When in North Korea

I've never been to North Korea and I don't think I'll ever go there... But last night I watched a documentary about some Danish-Korean comedians who pretended to be fans of the North Korean regime and set up a really terrible comedy show just to see how people would react.
It was the most nerve wracking thing I've seen in a long, long time. I was sure some one was going to call their bluff and they would get imprisoned and executed.
Most of it is in English (I'm pretty sure it's made for an international audience) and I would recommend it if you're the least bit interested in getting behind the scenes of North Korea. It's called The Red Chapel.
