Think about it: if you grow up with a pack of wolves, you’ll think that the whole world grows up with a pack of wolves. If you grow up in the middle of the ocean, you’ll think that the whole world is like that, or you’ll think that there is no other part to the world. If North Korea was all he knew, then his only choice would be to obey what he knows. It’s really sad once you think about it
Amen! Well said. It’s tragic. The average North Korean can’t even access the internet beyond the limited sites that the DPRNK control. Sadly, I’m sure most of them have never heard of a VPN. I wonder if using a VPN would allow their online presence to sneak past government security and access the worldwide web.
This man transforned himself and turned Pain and Knowledge into power action and cause... I habe no words. Respect is one that works though, at the least... Damn.
Jess is an NK Troll. We will never hear from him/her again. It’s sad Jess has no free will and can never respond with the truth. That person whoever they are is being forced to reply by the the dear Dictator. So just take it easy on them.

@@brijeshthapa1808 His family members were already subject to purges in North Korea because they were related to Kim Jong-un's executed uncle, Jang Song-thaek. It was fortunate that this man survived.
He's already very public about the topic on social media, and North Korea definitely knows about him anyways. If anything could've happened to him, then it should already have.
This is so inspiring. I hope your family is well and understand, please don't give up on hope and you will achieve so much more! Freedom and human rights are worth fighting for!
He is brave and courageous. I am sure he knows what he is getting into and what his purpose in life is. May God help him and grant him grace to live with boldness and dignity for righteousness.
He is a very smart man. He fell in love with the daughter of a South Korean military general, got married, and had a son, and now he work as a high-ranking public official at a state agency.
He's actually a very extremely brave man who fought against tyranny and brutal regime actually. As a Christian person I have been praying for the people of North Korea. North Korean military personnel, civilians, government personnel are actually leaving north Korea.
힘내세요! 응원합니다! He should be a highly educated and grown up in very high positioned family as I see he have studied in China as a Uni student and by seeing he's English skill. I admire this guy who's realized what is human right and inpired he need to do something. We are mostly living in the well organized system and we don't even realize that it is gift compare with people live in dictating country.
That was one of the most powerful testimonies of a North Korean defector. I could put myself in his place with how he described how his eyes were open and was woken up about his country. I hope and pray his family are ok.
This is an amazing story, because it is not as obvious as escaping famine, it's a story directly involving knowledge and ethics. I'm very happy this man is free!
People who are living in NK can’t do anything about it because anyone who would just think about rebelling will die from severe famine in working camps. And countries would not try to do anything because NK is so powerful that it can cause serious damages to any country that would interfere. I believe NK’s only hope is those North Koreans who escape to other countries. They have the freedom to do it, and they have the motive also that they would die to free their own people and country. I’m sure no one will see this post but I’m sending this message to those North Koreans who escaped, you have all the power to make a change in your county’s situation.
Please, I'm sorry if this is rude for asking... What would be a good way to Support this cause and North Korean people who escape. I realy would like to be an aid
lol the only way to support this is by living in south korea and sneaking in south korean movies electronics to north korean defectors who risk their life traveling back and forth through boarders to slowly show citizens what life outside north korea looks like. Even that you would need to already have those connections. People send balloons over with pictures of other cities and things that aren't north korean so they can see what the real world looks like. Other than that there is nothing you can do
I think it takes extraordinary courage to walk away from everyone and everything you've ever known, to gamble on the dream of a better life. I am always fascinated and inspired by these people.
GEUM, What a courageous young man you are! It takes Just (ONE) to start a movement! Just (ONE) to create the begining of change. Just (ONE) to start the topple of a regime and dictatorship. Just (ONE) TO start creating a democracy. EVERYTHING THAT HAS EVER HAPPEND, HAPPEND BECAUSE (ONE) PERSON DID THAT ONE THING THAT CREATED HUGE CHANGE IN MILLIONS OF LIVES! YOU GEUM ARE (ONE) OF THOSE PEOPLE! The choices you made and continue to make , Imagine how many lives your journey might have and will save! May God Bless your Heart And Soul GEUM!

I'm glad he found freedom I cant even imagine what he went through just to see what was on the other side of the fence its good to have a neighbor like him thoughts and prayers and love for all the slaves in north karea that dont know what freedom is

When it comes to Saudi Arabia we find every single social media talk about one teen girl escaped from Saudi Arabia from Kuwait actually to Thailand, but when it's really about North Korea and the miserables people who living in hell and finally escaped, nobody is really cares about them or lend them their full attention..
Agree with u Just a Girl ...my understanding is that the Saudi girl attracted the world attention bcoz she escaped from Islamic principles and culture to embrace the western culture...
@Rener Oslo , hope Saudi Arabia remains always the muslim country that maintains the sharia law and all islam principles esp in this era of the raise of that 'drunk, drowned' bin Salman n his 'open thoughts'...
All these poor people must be hard because when they tried to leave and escape their country they also are leaving their family behind, it must be so painful for them mixed with the insecurity to star a new life as well, they are very brave people
Us living in the U.S. take everything for granted. This is crazy and has me thinking of how thankful and grateful I am. We complain because were not driving a supercar or a luxury car but then there is these people who are fighting for their lives and living in horrendous situations with no freedom. Crazy!!!
I applaud this man for sharing his story but also the random camera zoom-ins remind me of The Office

I was thinking the same thing lmao

Kudos to this courageous man, and I respect him very much, but whenever the camera zoomed in (like the office), I couldn't control my laughter.
This is the type of guy you want to have a deep conversation about knowledge. No judgement but instead tries to understand the topic.
There has GOT to be something we can do
I guess at the minimum all we can do is listen
You can give money to the legitimate organizations that help them escape. You can share these videos and you can tell others. That's a place to start.
God bless you on your journey..He loves you...Trust in HIM...Pray for your family...🙏🙏🙏
Your very brave! More students like u should all escape and go to SK.
