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....
