Nina Špitálníková graduated in Korean Studies and twice made it into the world’s most hardline dictatorship today. She has now written a book about her experiences, welcome and otherwise. The book explores not only how she studied at a North Korean university and her arrest over a forbidden metro ride but above all the everyday lives of the local people.

What else did Nina Špitálníková experience, how did her stay there change her approach to life, what does business look like under communism and why can she never go back to the DPRK?

Discussion moderated by journalist and Czech Television editor Michala Komrsková.
