I would not go to DK on this salary. You will scrape by. Ask for double and free housing.
The differential tax regime is, as you say, for salaries much higher than what the OP mentions. The total all-in differential rate is 32%.

In any case, the salary offered seems indeed very low for DK, even more with the 'no benefits' stated by the OP - I'm thinking mainly relocation assistance, moving costs, housing allowance, etc.
