Well, at least one notable person has tried to go there. Kim Jang-nam, older brother of Kim Jong-Un, was caught in 2001 trying to sneak into Japan to go to Disney-Tokyo. Apparently this is the one thing that can actually shame the ruling family of North Korea, as this seems to have been the major impetus in Jang-nam falling out of favor and Jong-Un taking over as heir and eventually Supreme Leader and Most Dear Paranoid of North Korea.
Jamg-nam now lives in exile in Macau, where he is noted for love of gambling. Not clear if he has made it to Disneyland.
