"In his new book, Ask a North Korean, Daniel Tudor--a former Economist journalist and current Korean beer entrepreneur-- wants people to understand the true lives of everyday North Koreans. Using translated essays written by defectors, the book covers topics from politics to pornography." -- The Boston Globe

The weekly column Ask A North Korean, published by NK News, invites readers from around the world to pose questions to North Korean defectors . Adapted from the long-running column, these fascinating interviews provide authentic firsthand testimonies about life in North Korea and what is really happening inside the "Hermit Kingdom."

North Korean contributors to this book include:
  • "Seong" who went to South Korea after dropping out during his final year of university. He is now training to be an elementary school teacher.
  • "Kang" who left North Korea in 2005. He now lives in London, England.
  • "Cheol" who was from South Hamgyeong in North Korea and is now a second-year university student in Seoul.
  • "Park" worked and studied in Pyongyang before defecting to the U.S. in 2011. He is now studying at a U.S. college.

Ask A North Korean sheds critical light on all aspects of North Korean politics and society and shows that, even in the world's most authoritarian regime, life goes on in ways that are very different from what outsiders may think. Begin to understand North Korea through the eyes of those who know it best--its defectors.

Q. How much is shipping, and how long does it take?

All of our products are shipped from Korea to the rest of the world, so a global shipping fee applies to every order. Shipping costs and delivery times vary depending on your country.

To see exactly how much shipping costs and how long it takes to reach your country, just click Calculate and see the shipping cost below the Add to Cart button.

Q. When will my subscription box ship?

Our subscription and curated boxes (Daebak Box, Daebak K-Beauty Box, SnackFever, and Collab Box) ship right after a 2–3 business day processing period from the time your order is placed.

Q. How do recurring subscriptions work?

For recurring subscriptions, your next order is automatically created exactly 3 months after your original order date. Once that order is generated, it ships after the same 2–3 business day processing period.

Q. ⚠️ Important: Can I order products from different brands together?

Please order items from the same brand together, and avoid mixing different brands in a single order.

Each Korean brand we carry uses its own shipping carrier, so combining products from different brands in one order may result in higher shipping costs. For example, Brand A may ship via FedEx while Brand B ships via Korea Post, meaning a mixed order is handled as separate shipments.

To keep your shipping costs as low as possible, we recommend placing a separate order for each brand.
