Chongjin, North Korea, is a major industrial port city with very limited openness to foreigners. For digital nomads, it’s **not a practical destination**: internet access is extremely restricted, connectivity is unreliable, and travel is tightly controlled. 🛑🌐 Useful mainly for very specific, authorized visits—not remote work.
