I'm guessing she just wants to add a new country to her list and be one of the first back to get views. I bet she'll put something on the resurrected YouTube channel.I know a few people who have been to N. Korea, it is not a big deal they just bring you on a tour which is obviously mostly propaganda. You are not allowed to travel there without being on a tour. Americans are disliked obviously so I would not go there as an American. I considered going there myself whilst I was in China as it isconvenient to go from there geogrphically and while you have a Chinese visa to enter via China but decided against it. It is costly enough and obviously you do not get to see what N. Korea is really like so I did not think it was worth the money. She is probably just going for the views. Also I am just reading now that only Rason Special Economic zone in the far north is the only place you can visit nowadays. If that is correct I do not know why you would bother... apart from views I guess.
Personally I'd wait until Pyongyang is open. It's where all the decent sites are. She might as well just have gone to the DMZ when she was in Seoul
