North Korea is a country everyone has heard of, but few have actually experienced. The travel show On Your Own Skin continues with its second stop, one of the most mysterious destinations in the world.
Four guests who have experienced this country at different times over the past 30 years will come together on one stage. Each of them saw a different North Korea, and together they will paint a unique picture of a country that is both fascinating and unsettling.
Roman Pomajbo first visited in 1989, shortly before the revolution, at a time when Kim Il-sung led the country.
Martin Navrátil visited for the first time in 2008, and this time he wanted to return to the country to run his first half-marathon. However, the marathon in Pyongyang was canceled. But life writes stories like this, too.
Peter Dosedla visited there as a tourist in 2015.
And Jiří Krška is one of the truly rare visitors, having been to North Korea three times, once as a tourist and twice as a businessman. As one of the few people in the world, he even has a North Korean visa in his passport.
You will be accompanied by Dano Dangl, a passionate traveler, a curious observer of the world and a person who likes to ask questions that may not have even occurred to others. Thanks to his quick humor and natural curiosity, the discussion often gets to the point where the most interesting stories are born.
An evening full of stories that you will not hear anywhere else awaits you, about traveling in the most closed country in the world, about what tourists can and can never see, and about moments that will forever remain misunderstood for many.
The show On Your Own Skin is not just about storytelling, but about an experience that you will feel with all your senses. Therefore, you can also look forward to tasting various drinks or snacks.
Guests will also bring back rare souvenirs directly from North Korea, magnets, stamps or even North Korean money. You may take some of them home with you.
