There looks to be nothing fun there at all. How dire.

^That is a brilliant website.

I thought there was another near Pyongyang with a new flyer which the Theme Park guys been to and I'm right: http://www.rcdb.com/qs.htm?t=North+Korea

The article is bull ****. Look closer. The person writing it has not visited it. It's a collection of other people's photographs with an invented trip report.

I'm not saying that the park is nothing short of awful, but the "writer" is purely speculating on how the park operates and the danger the guests there have to face.

Plus, there are at least two more parks in North Korea. One of them bought a brand new Zamperla Volare just last year.

Yes, the pictures are interesting, but I hate this kind of "journalism". You know, basically some fat geek with a blog.

Harnesses regularly unlock on the rollercoaster leaving terrified passengers bearing down on them and counting the seconds until it is over (one way or another). This really is a white knuckle ride, without exaggeration.

Yeah I'm calling BS on this article. :roll:

Yeah, this is a load of crap. There are loads of creds in NK, loads.

(See the link above, but there are probably more than that which we don't know about yet, too).
