How do North Korean students achieve such good foreign language skills?

Hello!

I just watched a YouTube video about a teacher teaching French in Pyongyang at a school and they interviewed two children. Both had excellent accents and spoke very well (I assume they picked the best students but still...). I remember watching another video a while ago where one of the guides spoke German and English fluently too. As far as I know they aren’t allowed to leave the country, let alone do immersion programs.

So how do they manage to speak so well?
