Did you meet many 'ordinary' people who had been abroad and seen that Party propaganda wasn't true? Had their opinion of NK changed because of it?

A brave man. But this is what I've heard - that particularly in the north of the country many people work illegally across the border in China and NK can even get mobile phone coverage from Chinese masts. So maybe it's not quite as isolated and the people so ignorant (not intended to be meant insultingly) of the outside world as we think?
