That at least two of our members have visited North Korea is rather remarkable.
No wonder obscure questions can get answered here.

I have a friend who went to North Korea in 1968. He lived there for 11 months and doesn't really care to go back again.

More detailed charges are now listed here.

€0.20/min for incoming calls is a bit unjustified, given that they're no doubt also charging a hefty termination fee to the caller's network.

€0.15 to €0.20 per megabyte is expensive but not prohibitive.

It's interesting that foreigners living in North Korea (mainly diplomats) are subject to much lower charges. However, it doesn't specifically state that the foreigner line is available only to residents.
