Bridging the gap between East and West, The Farthest Place on Earth is an eye-opening, firsthand account of daily life in the most secretive, reclusive country on Earth.When it comes to North Korea, most people prefer to look in rather than out. Longtime travel guide Avraham Tashach is not like most people. A seasoned veteran with hundreds of tours in his thirty-year career as a professional guide, Tashach truly believed he had seen everything this world had to offer. But when the opportunity came to journey into the only lasting totalitarian communist regime in modern times, he expected to find fear and hostility. He expected to find camps and armed forces.What he found was a different North Korea.In The Farthest Place on Earth, Tashach uses a novelist’s compelling narrative and a historian’s precision to substitute the narrow, one-sided perspective of North Korea as a solely Orwellian society into a complex, multi-layered and hospitable—albeit foreign—country.Through eight excursions between 2016 and 2018—a chaotic period in North Korea’s relationship with the Western world—The Farthest Place on Earth takes readers on a street-level exploration of North Korea’s cities, villages, and unique culture, as seen from a Western perspective. Tashach is not afraid to break myths and confront hard truths about the country and its portrayal in Western culture. From bonding with local guides over shared experiences to donating a truckload of food to rural villages in the middle of a flash flood, this book shares incredible, unheard-of stories from the most isolated and possibly misunderstood country on Earth.

From the surprisingly placid criminal gangs of Pyongyang, to the rules of decorum that apply to women, to the decline in army recruitment as black market entrepreneurs grow increasingly wealthy: these articles cover all aspects of North Korean society.One of the rare foreigners to have studied in North Korea, Dr. Andrei Lankov is in a unique position to interpret North Korea's culture and society to a foreign audience. Accepted into the prestigious faculty of Oriental Studies at Leningrad State university during the declining days of the Soviet Union, Lankov had originally hoped to study Chinese. Instead, he found himself specialising in North Korean studies, an eccentric option even within the Soviet Bloc.The Faculty of Oriental Studies was world apart from the daily life of the average Soviet citizen, in which well-paid Professors avoided their students as much as they possibly could and took refuge from current political troubles in obscure corners of classical philology. Even within this world, North Korean studies were a minority interest. As Lankov himself put it: “Most of the time, Korean departments played host to undergraduates deemed not good enough to be accepted to more prestigious and competitive majors like, say, Japanese and Arab studies. This meant that interest in things Korean was present but not necessarily enthusiastic. It did not help, of course, that North Korea, with its bizarre political system, hysterical propaganda and crazy personality cult was seen as a laughing stock in the entire socialist bloc of the time.”Despite this, Lankov pursued his studies and was eventually dispatched to Pyongyang to study at Kim Il Sung University. Here he gained first-hand experience of life in North Korea: restrictions on movement, ideological proselitizing, corruption and black-market trading. After graduating he taught Korean history and language at his alma mater before moving on to the Australian National University and Kookmin University in Seoul and bringing his knowledge of the closed world of North Korea to a wider audience via a variety of media outlets, including NK News.In this volume we bring together a selection of Andrei Lankov's most popular columns for NK News, illustrated with luminous photographs by Eric Lafforgue.

Ten Years in North KoreaThe few countries in the world that remain so closed off that practically no one from the outside gets an insight. North Korea is certainly one of the most secluded. Ruled by the same family for generations, the dictatorship virtually prohibits any contact beyond its borders, isolating 26 million inhabitants from the rest of humanity. This is why the photo book "Waiting for the Rainbow" by Xiomara Bender is so valuable, as it engages with the Korean region in a deeply honest way.The author portrays the lives and everyday routines of the people in this country that few have the chance to know. She seeks to draw attention to the many fates and the changes of recent years, which in this strict dictatorship are only possible in subtle micro-steps. Through her photographic journey through time, her readers can witness this transformation that brings hope. People who appear more self-assured as the book progresses, smiles that turn into laughter, clothing that gradually reflects more of fashion than uniformity. All of this is shown to us by the author in emotionally resonant images.Bender has undertaken nine journeys to North Korea in almost ten years, bringing back this unique photo documentation. The award-winning artist aims to break through the world's culture of willful ignorance regarding North Korea with her work, and without reproach, direct attention to the unvarnished daily lives of the people living there and their state-orchestrated routines.In addition to the touching images, the author prompts reflection through many short texts, without appearing didactic. Her language is art, opening up to those who free the way. Read more

North Korea remains one of the last bastions of old-style communism: a military dictatorship, ruled with an iron grip for the last sixty years by the Kim dynasty. Every aspect of society is rigidly controlled; a country of paranoia, propaganda, and juche. Irish Engineer, Dualta Roughneen, experienced the trials and tribulations of North Korea from 2004 to 2007 as an aid agency worker - keeping notes of his observations and thoughts. Based in the capital, but with access to towns and the countryside outside Pyongyang, he was able to see inside this most secretive of countries, beyond the picture of a socialist paradise portrayed on officially sanctioned tours. Beautifully written, with a gentle humour, and offering eye-opening insights of life in the ‘Hermit Kingdom’ consistently denied to the few tourists and formally approved visitors that venture in, the book superbly observes Korean politics, the people, freedoms, and hardships, (as well as a bit of food and shopping). It details the day-to-day idiosyncrasies of being a foreigner in this most strange and unusual country. Living as a foreigner in North Korea is like watching television with the sound off. Read more

Promises is an inspirational account of values, character, persistence, and—above all else—the power of love and faith.In this remarkable memoir, Joon Bai, humanitarian and successful businessman, shares his extraordinary life story and the lessons he has learned about courage, challenges, and hope. From his early childhood years in what is now North Korea, living through the devastation of World War II and the Korean War, Bai learned the value and strength of love and persistence. Those were lessons he brought with him to the United States, where he earned his engineering degree and went on to a successful career in business, eventually opening his own factory in rural Pennsylvania, buoyed by the support of his beloved wife, Kyuhee, and his mother. Hard-won success at hand, Bai returned to North Korea to offer help to farmers and children devastated by the country’s ongoing famine, spending millions of dollars and saving countless lives. It was an effort, Bai notes, that was inspired by his mother and wife, and the Christian faith they instilled in him. Along his eventful journey, Bai’s passion and devotion led him to write and produce a stirring movie, The Other Side of the Mountain, a wrenching love story with a message dear to Koreans on both sides of the border that has divided their country for decades—unification. Promises is a unique and intimate look inside North Korea and into the character of a man that will serve as a guide to understanding commitment, faith, and the true meaning of life. Read more
