hate to break it to you, most countries have trade embargoes against NK. this means you cannot contract work from NK because you would be committing international trade fraud.

contractor failed to disclose they were a NK national and thus resulted in their termination.

I know you're probably joking, but this is the reality we live in.

trade embargoes have zero to do with race or nationality.

it however deals heavily in politics.
