North vs South Korea: What Makes These Neighbors So Different?
Formal and Fun Tour Guides
Tour guides in North Korea wear formal, conservative uniforms, reflecting the country’s strict regulations and controlled tourism industry. Tours are highly structured, focusing on approved sites with little room for spontaneity. In South Korea, tour guides are more casually dressed, often in bright, comfortable attire, reflecting the country’s vibrant, bustling tourism scene.
They offer flexible itineraries, with options to explore both popular and off-the-beaten-path attractions. The difference in tour guides’ dress and approach highlights the broader contrasts between the North’s controlled and the South’s dynamic, traveler-friendly tourism.
