Heard that one too?

The confusion with computers comes from they are the last crypto-communists.
But I understand we intoxicated them, explaining them they could obvioulsy go through Afghanistan and Iraq, but USA were much safer with plenty of stocks on the way, from the anti-French boycott. Belgium too helped. They were the first and only rfided passport compliant country. Until US imigration discovered rfided passports were great for terrorists to spot their target. So, they gave all their passports to North Korea, for free. When you come in August just do not fly through Brussels, you could be stoped as a Belgium North Korean... and your crypto investigated. But IMHO your only real risk is that they keep your old passport taking it for an over crypted smart new one.

Otherwise it should be OK.
If you make it, give me a ring.
But I may be on the beach: I do not speak Korean so....
