HBO documentary series Vice will be airing its North Korea episode on Friday night's season finale.

The Vice crew visited North Korea in February with basketball star Dennis Rodman and the Harlem Globetrotters. HBO will air the special about North Korea tonight at 11 p.m.

Rodman famously slammed President Barack Obama in May for not talking to the nation's leader, Kim Jong-un.

"I'm not a diplomat, man, I'm just trying to go over there," Rodman said at the time. "But I'm going to do one thing for you. We got a black president can't even go talk to him, how about that one? ... I'll put it like this, Obama can't do s**t. I don't know why he won't do it. So do that bulls**t."

"VICE organized an unlikely, highly publicized trip to North Korea, hoping to thaw out relations through some hoops diplomacy," the documentary series said on its official website, "With NBA great Dennis Rodman and a trio of exuberant Harlem Globetrotters in tow, VICE traveled to the capital of Pyongyang."

Included in the trip was "a surreal tour of the city, a basketball clinic with under-18 players, an exhibition game witnessed by Kim and 10,000 adoring fans, and - most surprising - a first-ever meeting between the baby-faced leader and an American delegation."

Vice correspondent Ryan Duffy led the trip to North Korea.

"Was anything we were seeing real? It felt like we were walking through a true live Truman Show, created just for us," Duffy said in the episode, "Everywhere we went and everything we saw was constructed to convey the exact opposite of what we know about North Korea."

 The increasingly isolated country of North Korea has threatened the U.S. by launching nuclear missile tests. The country has released several propaganda videos over the past year, one of which showed cartoon missiles attacking the U.S.

The Vice season finale, titled "Basketball Diplomacy" will air tonight at 11 p.m. on HBO.
