Since NK is under sanctions by the US, I supposed you wouldn't want to give them any money for goods or services. It could blow back

I've had Pyongyang soju when it was sold in the US around a decade or so ago, it was ok: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/north-korean-alcohol-imported...

Bought it as a curiosity since I had never seen anything sold from DPRK before and it was just randomly at a liquor store. I guess the importer ended up getting arrested under FARA and you can't buy it anymore.

Aha now I understand. But how does us tourists to PyongUang deal with this typically? Or rather how should it be solved?
