In this Thursday, March 31, 2016 photo, barista Ri Hyon A speaks behind the counter of the Kumrung coffee shop in Pyongyang, North Korea. Pyongyang may be one of the few major cities left on Earth where you can't find a Starbucks, but it's brimming over with coffee shops. "Over the past couple of years the number of people who really know good coffee has grown a lot, and they look around the city to find the best places," said Ri who underwent training in China to learn the craft. "We have a lot of regulars." (AP Photo/Eric Talmadge)
