North Korea is currently communist, and has been communist since WWII. It is split from South Korea along the 38th parallel.
All of North Korea is Communist. Maybe not the civilians and/or other people living in North Korea, but definitely the government.

There are currently two states that inhabit the Korean peninsula, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea), and the Republic of Korea (South Korea). The DPRK/North Korea labels itself as a communist state. However, this label is inaccurate due to the fact that North Korea functions under a totalitarian dictator and that even the common people are not equal in terms of finance and living conditions. Because of this, North Korea barely even resembles a "communist" state since communism, in theory, calls for the absence of a government and for the absolute equality of people living in the state, both of which are absent in North Korea.

By this definition, not a single state in recorded human history has been truly "communist" due to the fact that every state that claimed to embrace communism did function under a government. It would be more accurate to label these states as "communist-inspired" due to the fact that some, but not all elements of communism are present. However, North Korea fails even to fit within the definition of a communist-inspired state due to the absence of any of the major traits associated with communism.

In conclusion, the answer to your question is: Neither
