North Korea gets a fair amount of tourists, just near-zero from America because America banned travel there for its citizens. If the WPK is saying it’s a city for tourism and that’s not just some made up term like the “propaganda city” is, it will probably be mostly tourists, diplomats, and domestic bureaucrats, and capitalists rather than common citizens, but I suppose we don’t know and there’s a good chance they’ll be doing some sort of subsidy thing for at least part of it.
Good on the DPRK for that, but it seems like a serious problem still. I think you need to report on something like that and if the state found out that you lied during customs or whatever, that’s an actual crime. Maybe if you plan on never setting foot in the US again it’s fine, but that’s a more specific circumstance.

Being banned isn’t a problem; the DPRK don’t stamp your passport specifically so people don’t get problems when they go back home.
So basically if you’re from the States you have to use some sort of layover? Can you even buy tickets to there on US websites?
Basically you go to China and book a ticket there
I heard it’s the same deal for US citizens visiting Cuba except with Mexico
