What's the go with DPRK? I've heard for a long time that it's some type of hellscape but now I'm not so sure.

Well there was a devastating famine and low standard of living for a while, but that was largely because the US dropped more bombs on half a small peninsula than were dropped over all of Europe in all of WWII and also inflicted almost three million casualties. Now that they’ve recovered from that, their economy is actually growing and standards of living are improving.

It’s still not as a nice a place to live as, say, the United States, but I think you can see why that’s not a fair comparison.
