      "question": "What is the country code for North Korea?",
      "answer": "+850. From abroad, dial your own exit code, then 850, then the national number without its trunk prefix 0."
    },
    {
      "question": "Which prefixes are mobile numbers in North Korea?",
      "answer": "Mobile numbers start with 019 in national form; the mobile regular expression on this page gives the exact ranges (example: 0192 123 4567). The carrier table shows which prefix blocks were allocated to which operator."
    },
    {
      "question": "Can a mobile number in North Korea be ported to another carrier?",
      "answer": "Not on record. The plan data this page is built from does not list mobile number portability for North Korea, so the carrier a prefix was allocated to is likely, not certainly, the carrier serving the number. Only a live carrier lookup (an HLR or MNP query) confirms it."
