There are like very pretty buildings right at the side of the roads but when seen from the top (I think it was from their hotel room) behind those buildings are dilapidated ruins where actual people live in. And there's one where they went to the hospital and it was completely empty, and the electricity went out periodically (no generators came on, obviously). Imagine if the electricity went out in our hospitals, so many people would die! So the guy asked why there weren't any patients, and the doctor said the patients came in the morning and had left and if he wanted to see any he'd need the patients' permissions, which he couldn't get without seeing the patients. There are a few videos and they all show the same thing because the trips are very structured, so I'll find that very hard to fake. I'll stay with my country's healthcare, thank you very much.I believe you are talking about the BBC journalist John Sweeney, who managed to film inside the country for "North Korea Uncovered" whilst posing as a student visitor.
He's also the guy who pissed off the Church of Scientology a number of times with his investigations into them.
