North Korea opened a luxurious beach resort, Wonsan Kalma Coastal Tourist Area, boasting 400 buildings and capacity for 20,000 guests. While touted as a "world destination" by Kim Jong Un, the resort initially caters to domestic tourists due to ongoing international sanctions and restrictions on foreign visitors. Although Russia is showing interest and some tourists are expected, the resort's long-term success remains uncertain due to North Korea's isolation and limited infrastructure.
