The past two months have heralded big news for Visit North Korea. We once again achieved worldwide news by opening an official SAFC branch in the DPRK, the first of its kind in the world. We now have a plan in place to donate Sunderland shirts to the country, focusing on Pyongyang’s very own football academy for youth (ages 7-17). Soon, we aim to send a delegation there to make this dream a reality and even attend an Asian Champions League Game! But have you ever thought about shirts going the other way? Not only we will be bringing Wearside to Pyongyang, but we will bringing Taedongside (The name of the city’s river) to Sunderland!
How are we going to do this? We are now to proud to announce a fantastic competition for a Sunderland fan to win a real North Korean national football team jersey, sent to you by us via post! A preview of one similar to what you will receive is visible in the picture above next to the SAFC shirt, being all red with white trims on it, a flag on the crest area and “KOREA DPR” on the back.
How do you take part in this exciting competition? Simply share our facebook post on it and tag a mate in it. But there’s one more thing: When you win it, we want you to send us a photograph of you standing in front of the Stadium of Light wearing it!

Either way, this is your opportunity to take part in one of the most remarkable cultural exchanges that is taking place.
