"I imagine them holding the baby in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other."
Well, she's not wrong!
Many caring fathers do that.
It’s total propaganda. It assumes that only American fathers are like this. There are great and terrible fathers in every nation. The issues between DPRK and the U.S. are obviously not about which ones have the best fathers. But people eat this shit up anyway.
I’m 100% sure that if the video showed loving DPRK fathers and an American reacting positively to it, it would be denounced as propaganda. But when the west does it, it’s ok.
Seriously. I’m getting so mad with all these double standards. I used to have more patience and try to educate as many as I could when I was younger but as I’m getting older I’m done with that. Because I don’t know how little critical thinking and ignorant people are to not recognize this.
Even in the West, it’s a stereotype that black fathers are absent or “bad”. It’s a stereotype that Asian parents are firm and strict, unloving. It’s a stereotype that Spanish parents are hotheads. This video isn’t just propaganda, it’s racist.
If you open the channel (DIMPLE) from desktop, you can see that even though the address is listed in Seoul in their profile, the system registration address is listed in America.
Time for me to find a video clip of a black man getting beat by a cop, then I’ll go to China and walk past a cop myself. Then I’ll start violently crying and shitting myself on camera, I’ll post it to RUclips and title it “How could a police officer be so tolerant”?
@@patricks1333 Uh... Sir, this is a Wendy's.
My thoughts exactly. My father always had coffee breath & fell asleep in his chair after a hard day. Now that I'm a father I don't drink coffee but now I fall asleep in the chair my father crashed in when I'm trying to stay awake & spend time with mine.
@@patricks1333 There really are welfare incentives in America for women to raise kids in fatherless homes. Teaching darker skinned people to think they are victims & need to live on welfare does lead to less father's in the home.
her stoy of being beaten for messing up an instrument when she instead had daydreams of her father giving her a standing ovation was... beyond heartbreaking.
It's actually not rare in Asian cultures for children to be beaten in such circumstances, especially in rich families. One of my Chinese ex boyfriends' parents had invited my parents and I on a trip (they paid for us). They had a younger son, they had to pay the government extra money in order to give birth to him, and they had him play piano for us. He made a couple of mistakes and looked instantly horrified as if he were about to be slapped in the face. He immediately apologized and bowed to us, and it broke my heart.
So sad it broke my heart
I was hit with sticks on my palm for having average grades. I used to take it and by next hour I would be back to mischievous ways.
@@dragonbane44 hahah same
Well, people may say it's 'Asian' culture, but please remember Asia is a huge place, East Asian culture is pretty different than say, South Asian, or Southeast. But none of ours are really perfect either i guess.
As an American ... I felt her tears hard. When I was 6, I stood in front of my church of over 300 people and sang a solo with 8 no repeating verses. I was met with a standing ovation. When I was done all my father said was "You could have done better than that." As I got older he would tell me "Stop trying to sing, you'll never be LeAnn Rimes." Every dance recital was met with "I don't know why you even try. You look ridiculous." As I grew up if I had an A- in a class I would be chastised. An A+ was met with "What? No extra credit? Go to your room." He's told me since I was 5 that I was a disappointment, that I was an unwelcomed surprise and he wished he never had kids. I never once did anything to get into trouble, outside of my room being a mess sometimes. I did my best, graduated at 16 and was done with college at 19, yet he expected better of me. Now that I'm almost 40, he blames me for anything wrong in life. So I try not to speak to him unless I have to. Her tears took me back to my sadness. A Sadness I hope my son never feels.

You describe me exactly. I have nothing helpful to say, just to tell you you're not alone, like your comment told me I'm not alone.
Your last sentence already describe what kind of father you're. God bless you
@@nineteenfortyeight6762 I'm thankful for your comment and for you. 💖🕯️
My heart broke for her when she said, “Why couldn’t my father be like that?” You can see the longing for that love and acceptance still present. It just makes you want to reach out and give her a hug.
And yet she's well adjusted, stable, not an addict, and generally happy. Like most people raised with such "harsh" parenting. Unlike those raised by "loving" Western parents. Be very careful what you wish for.
How about you give huggs to those in YOUR own country, who need even more help?
@@pm2886 we all know most people in 1st world countries are softer
@@pm2886 🙄 here we go. You people make me sick.
@@pm2886 You can the hurt and longing for a parental connection left by not having a relationship with her father. How can you say that's a good thing? It's possible to have all of those things you mentioned and still have a strong relationship with your parents you know?
My dad once woke me up in the middle of the night because it had snowed where we lived in Georgia, a rare occurance. He told me to put my shoes on and we drove to the empty school parking lot to do donuts in his truck. Wish everyone had a dad like that.
That's dope!
My Daddy did something similar. He was an over the road truck driver so was gone for days at a time. One day when he was home it started snowing and he decided to let us stay home from school so we could ride our motorcycles in the backyard. One of my most treasured memories of childhood!!
We love in Florida and it rarely gets much below freezing here and one Christmas eve we had a hard freeze and my dad sat outside all night with a hose spraying all the trees in the yard so Christmas morning there were icicles everywhere and I got a bb gun so he sat outside and we shot the ice off the trees. I'll never forget that
I took my Daughter out to the big local supermarket car park in November last year to slide about in the snow (after it was closed of course), we were there for about 5 minutes before the security guard came over, he looked furious. As soon as he saw my Daughter strapped in her seat in the back waving her arms and squealing with laughter, his face totally changed. He told us we couldn't "do skids" there then gave us directions to a huge paved area just outside of town where we'd be left alone! I'm trying my best to be a "Dad like that"

When she was amazed at seeing the first dad even holding his baby I was like wow, her standards are low, she's going to be blown away
Ikr, we're a very loving emotional people if rather chaotic but I couldn't imagine my dad not loving me. And I feel really bad that she had too.
Or maybe our standards are so incredibly high we can't fathom how awful other parts of the world are?
Her saying why couldnt my father have done that with me made my heart hurt very much. As a man with a daughter of my own, i cant imagine a world where i wouldnt shower her with love and be so cold towards them. I gotta go watch a war movie now to feel manly again cause this got me bqd for some reason lol.
Well even in America, there are very emotionally detached parents.
@@mara_q9979 yes but that's usually from there oun parents not showing them love so how can they give it. Not every time but most the time
The story she told of her father beating her for her performance as a 7 year old made me cry. I can’t imagine my dad ever being that cruel.
totally, I think it weirdly comes from a place of care though it's still doesn't justify the actions. For him he maybe justified himself being so strict because he thought if they become successful then they could have a decent life and not be relegated to poverty
@@bananabreadloaf Sorry to hear that. Yeah I can see your point but no need to lash out at me for sharing an opinion. I was more saying that's how some parents justify their abuse. If you listen to her story it's very different than yours. Her father was harsh and strict, it didn't come off like her dad used her as a punching bag. Your experiences are likely different, though both terrible.
@@AjaxNixon I understood what you were getting at. I agree
@@AjaxNixon true. i just hope one day eastern parents will understand beatings ≠ successful and happy life, but of course they like it easy and their head is infinitely stronger than titanium
North Korea is hell. The SJW snowflakes should think about that before they criticize our country.
When I was about to become a father, my dad told me “you can never hold your children too much, cherish them”
I'm a middle aged father of three young adults. I tell new and expectant dads all the time FILM EVERYTHING. What feels like a normal Saturday at home will become some of your most treasured possessions if you just record and start talking to your kids. Interview them, as them questions and let the recording roll. You will never regret it.
@@shindrithargriethrat8408I'll keep that in mind
I grew up without my father. When I found out my gf was pregnant I knew I’d do everything I can to be the best daddy to my little girl. I do everything I can and play and do everything for my baby girl.
Breaking the cycle of neglect/abuse our parents give us takes strength! More power to u
Awww!
When is the wedding? You say you will do any and everything for your daughter then marry your girlfriend and give her a family unit.
@@ahorsewithnoname643 not together
@@ahorsewithnoname643 sometimes, the fit isnt good and forcing a relationship hurts your kids more then it heals.
She still cries about things that happened when she was in kindergarten. Never forget that next time you think your child doesn’t need help or therapy to get over changes/abuse.

@@patricks1333 veryvery different not the smame
@@patricks1333 hmm don't think anything is stopping you from making your own videos.
we south koreans will never forget that this kind of life is what US troops helped us escape 70 years ago. all koreans would tell this story without their help. the stark contrast between this woman's story and the stories my parents have told me of growing up in south korea is profound. i remember, years ago, watching an interview of a man who had defected from north korea and escaped through china. he was released and sent to south korea for asylum. when the interviewer asked him what is the most shocking or surprising thing for you living outside of north korea, the man answered (and I paraphrase), "love. I don't understand this word and I don't know what it means, but everyone keeps talking about it." to this day, the people of north korea suffer. but one day, i have hope that they won't. i have hope that the border will be erased from history and the walls will be demolished forever. one day.
God bless you sir 🙏🇺🇸❤❤
lol propaganda got you bro
@@flora_76 lol. Look at south Korea before the war and look at it now. What “got me” is statistical evidence and facts.
@@philkwon81 are you sure you're not leaving out a tiny part of that history? the part that global powers did everything they could to make south korea thrive while doing everything in their power to punish north korea, and use it as an example of how socialism is the evil spawn of satan? ah but i'm sure i'm just making things up.. not like the US did that in every single socialist country.
As a Marine I am very well versed in the legendary battles that took place in the Korean War, including at the "Frozen Chosin" Reservoir. It's very nice to hear someone from outside the US say something as grateful and profound as you did, most people online want to shit on the US.
My father treated me similarly to this Korean woman. He beat my 4 year old brother for not being able to carry a bag of potatoes w/o spilling it. He beat me for laughing/smiling. We weren’t shown affection ever and I had to learn what it means to be loved from other people. Videos showing amazing dads are really difficult for me to watch too. I usually turn them off. They hurt too much.
Be different to your kids, that's how the cycle stops.
Same here. God bless.
I am a single father. I cannot imagine NOT being with my children. It is one thing to father a child, it is an entirely other thing to be a dad. My kids are the center of my universe.
When I hear things like this It makes me wanna snuggle up with my teddy bear It’s just so sweet to me when I hear parents talking about how much they love their children It gets me In a really happy mood :D
Amen brother! Been a full time single dad for 10 years now. Although it wasn’t the easiest. It was the best 10 years of my life hands down.
I wish my dad felt that way. Damn. I'm 23 and the only time we see each other is if I come to him. He never calls first. Never goes out of his way to come see me. We're 30 min. away from each other. And he only hugs and says I love you when we say goodbye which I normally have to initiate first. He's treated me like a fellow adult instead of a daughter since I was very young. Not very physically affectionate and doesn't really ask me about my life. He's nice, just not really there.
@@madih4586 sounds like my ex-wife. She literally drives past my house every day going to and from work, but cannot be bothered to see her own daughter. On the rare occasion that she does, all she does is complain. Tells her that she is fat, or not good enough, or stupid. I am not good at choosing women. I'll just focus on my kids and stay alone.
Oh wow, you got me tearing up over here😅 i wish my dad was like you and just cared. Sucks to be an adult and still not be sure if he loves you or not
I feel that pain when she says "why couldnt my father have done the same to me?" I literally cried.
Same. My dad wasn’t these dads either.

He was taught differently.
@@patricks1333 I agree that not all fathers are like this, but you can tell by her words that not a single father in North Korea is like that. The symbolism isn’t that “all American fathers are like this” but it’s “American fathers can be like this”
@@patricks1333 you do realize she said that even in South Korea the fathers will take care of babies on the weekend and do all the cooking and the cleaning? She said she was surprised because no man in North Korea does that with his children. She’s saying that basically most everywhere but North Korea the dads are much more loving and willing to help with the children.
My dad was a oilfield rough neck. He was stern, but fair. Man he showed me so much love that I never felt like I deserve. Stay Strong Western Men. We are needed now more than ever.
I'm glad that you felt loved. I'm so sorry you felt that you didn't deserve it. Because you don't have to earn love! You deserve to feel connected and protected simply because you are a human being. 🥰
The fact that she can recount that heartbreaking abuse with a smile on her face... it just compounds the sadness for me. On the one hand I'm glad to see that she's pushed through it all, but at the same time... there's just something about it... I don't know. All I know is that I wish her well.
Koreans are tough my mom is South Korean and was an orphan in Korea until she was adopted by a military American man who served during the war in Korea. I noticed she smiles about a lot of her trauma too because she has a really strong sense of herself. She is honestly incredible Koreans are tough cookies.
She has been through so much, she's so strong. I can't imagine going through what she did. The fact that she is now in a free country is already so difficult. Lots of people don't make it out.
It's because she's lying. She's just repeating a script
Because she's acting, simple as that.
I know, I recently watched a news reel. A young Ukrainian girl was telling how her parents were killed. She smiled but the sadness in her eyes told the real story. It broke my heart to pieces.
I teared up when she shared her experience in the band. My husband brought a bouquet of flowers and balloons for our daughter's kindergarten performance. I don't think a single kid sang on key, but all the parents cheered and called for an encore.
Instead she got caned when she missed a few notes on accordion. I hope one day the north Koreans learn how horribly they are treating their own people.
@@ShadowsxEvil that’s kind of the normal Asian manner. Well it was the same mentality for me growing up.
@@sparkles999rose2 that's one of the reason why I always wished to be born in the west
As an Asian, I do think some stuff, like her, goes OVERBOARD. My Father has now been apologizing for all the times he projected his own insecurities onto me every time I messed up. He simply hated seeing his mistakes happen with me. I do believe that a child can learn without the need of abuse. I was tied up, beaten, locked in rooms, verbally abused.. etc. I was suicidal at age 6 before I even knew what death was, I just remember wishing to stop waking up because I hated my life. I understand most Asians can numb themselves enough to take all this abuse as good lessons, because we pride ourselves on who we've become. I'm proud of who I am now, but I can still find my upbringing cruel and unethical. The ends don't justify the means. I don't like the idea of hitting kids and telling them they deserve it coz they messed up. Do people expect kids who believe they deserve pain when they aren't good enough to grow with a healthy mentality? I will shout at my kids, I will tell them off, but my hand shall never be raised to tie them up like farm animals and hit them till they cry. Whatever they achieve in life, for as long as they are respectful, bright and happy, that's my standard of success as an Asian parent. I never ever want them to think I ever felt they were lacking as human beings, the world will already do that.
It's not just Korea I think it's most Asian parents
It almost made me cry when she said " why couldn't my father have done the same to me?"
Dad's who don't spend enough time with their kids don't know what they're missing. And when it's gone it's gone forever.
But what really broke my heart was when she said her father caned her for making mistakes. Unbelievable.
What does it mean to be "caned" ?
@@jmanpolo5611 He took a cane to her and beat her. :(
@@ForbiddenHanyou oh shit.. :( these videos always hit me in the feels.
Yeah, I teared up too at that point.
@@jmanpolo5611 It's a form of punishment, to be beaten with a bamboo cane. Depending on the culture and the offense it could be on the butt, on the back or on the bottom of the feet. Either way it hurts a lot and for a long time.
America is very diverse, and there's good fathers and bad fathers.
I wonder how surprised she would be to hear of single fathers, who have to take the role of the dad and the mom. That's how it was for me growing up. I love my dad so much. ❤
I remember my dad waking me up when I was five years old to show me a lunar eclipse, and taking the time to explain it to me. I can't imagine growing up with an uncaring and stern father. I felt so bad for Ahn when she told the story of her father caning her for making mistakes on the accordian.
My dad would wake me up in the middle of the night just to tell me where to sleep
“Wow he is so great…why couldn’t my father have done that for me”
Damn. Just damn that hit hard.
Unfortunately the answer to the question probably is "no one did that for him and he never saw it modeled ever". And that's tragic.
He probably wanted to.
@@CordovanSplotchVT Then why didn’t he?
@@HarshDude126 Different societies have different though somewhat similar roles men are expected to adhere to.
Did you hear her stories? When she grew up her father was always working, because they had to, or they'd have to answer for it. He'd come home late, sit at a little table, smoke a cigarette, pull the one light in the house close to them to not wake them up, and work at home too. As she said before the great famine it was all patriarchal, and that's what she's describing. Many left during the famine. During the famine, the father didn't work, nobody in the family ate, and might have been killed by soldiers for food according to some accounts.
“All my memories of my father are scary” and she thinks that’s normal, and wonders what it would be like to be raised in love instead of CANING

Few things give me more comfort than hearing someone else reassure me with kind honesty "your father was a monster."
They live in a different country. If you are a man raised in North Korea, once you have your own kids you would treat them the same way. It is hard for people who don't live there to understand. Also, these men. They have to work 12-13 hours per day. They wake up from sleep and go to work. Get back from work, have dinner and then sleep again. And you work that hard making very little money.

As a father of a daughter, this is heart breaking. I am so sorry for the pain you felt. No little girl should be treated this way.
This just makes me even more overwhelmingly proud of my brother as a father/man... I have 3 older brothers. The older two are 15 and 11 years older than my youngest brother and I, who are "irish twins". My father was never physically abusive with my "twin" brother and I, but he would often get drunk and get into drag down knock out fights with the older two boys when they were teenagers. All while my "twin" brother and I would watch in fear. He never physically abused us, but he would frequently watch (and sometimes join in) as his wife tormented us for her own twisted amusement. He would constantly tell us that we had to understand where our stepmother was coming from, all while she called my brother a 'faggot' for liking art class and said that I was going to burn in hell for eternity because I had read Harry Potter. Thankfully we were only exposed to his/their nonsense two weekends a month, and the rest of the time he acted like we didn't exist. My mother raised us single handedly, and while she tried her best, she too had issues with drinking and the occasional verbal abuse. When our older brothers moved out, my "twin" brother and I made a pact to always take care of each other. We also promised that when we grew up and were blessed with children of our own, that they would never have to grow up the way that we did. Now we're in our mid-30s, and he is a father to 3 amazing kiddos. He's such an invested and loving father. He's become everything that we wanted in a parent growing up, and more. If he's not working (he's a firefighter) he's home with his beautiful wife and kids. He's one of the most hands on parents that I've seen, let alone dads. I am so proud of the man that he has become in spite of all the hell that we went through as young children. And I constantly look to him and his wife as examples of amazing parents (and people in general). They inspire me every day, and I hope that when I am blessed with children of my own, that I can be half the parents that my brother and his wife have become. 💗
I wish you all the best! Having kids is a true blessing!!! They ARE our future!!!!
You will be, I'm sure of that! ^^
Why do you keep putting twin in quotation marks?
You will be a great mother and you will exceed your own standards in parenting. I wish you all the best
I just found that
"As Professor Lupin told Harry in Prisoner of Azkaban, the Patronus is ‘a kind of Anti-Dementor - a guardian which acts as a shield between you and the Dementor.’ It’s also ‘a kind of positive force, a projection of the very things that the Dementor feeds upon - hope, happiness, the desire to survive - but it cannot feel despair, as real humans can, so the Dementors can’t hurt it.’ "
The Force is strong with these twins!
Honestly, this is so sad. Watching her face light up with genuine amazement is great, but you can also tell she's a bit sad that she never got to experience stuff like this with her own father.
Not sure but if feels to me like she knew he loved her in his way of helping her become successful. I hope so anyway. It takes generations sometimes to grow beyond some old traditions. She is very pleasantly cheerful.
Not only that, but she's so skilled at looking happy while she's tearing up. Think about why that is. Whew...
That hurt will never go away for her.
@@CarlosGarcia-ls4hn Yes it can, through forgiveness and healing of Jesus Christ.

@@ellyelisabeth2783 it's not that simple. When your culture is ingrained into you, certain behaviours become a natural way of life rather than a choice.
It's very easy to say he had a choice and could've easily chosen not to, from an outsider's perspective.
@@kuro-koma I was raised to be racist. I made the choice not to do that. I was raised to be violent. I chose not to do that.
We all make a choice.
@@ellyelisabeth2783 I said culture.
Which doesn't mean people exclusively around you, or your parents.
The culture makes something a norm for the majority of people that live in it, not just a handful of outliers.
When it's part of the culture, nobody thinks twice about whether hitting a child should be a choice or be the way of life.
If racism and sexism is part of their culture (like in Pakistan), the majority will not be able to choose the other because it's just how it is. Such a thing as choice won't even occur in the minds of someone living the culture. I know this because I didn't even know the words racism or sexism much less what they meant, until I came to the west.
Part of that is still embedded into me since that was my culture, and it just likely will never go away. It'll always influence my personal beliefs and the way I think, the biases that I might have through life, etc.
You can choose to not be racist because being racist is neither a norm nor the inherent culture in the modern Western world.
My children are my life and reason for being. My son left this morning after a brief visit. Last thing was a hug from this big guy and he said “I love you dad.”.
Hearing how her father was to her, makes me wish all the best for her. She deserves a warm hug, and the promise that everything will be better. A bright future
I'm American. I have sympathy for her because my father was like hers toward me and my siblings. But, also like her, I have no regrets. Spent my life trying to break that circle and be a better person than that.

I grew up in Africa and African parents aren’t exactly emotionally expressive but they make sure their kids are well taken care of, feel safe, and comfortable at home. Despite that, my father is most loving man I know. I always loved him so much, he would kiss my forehead, teach me math and french, and my brothers literally idolized him. Especially my little brother who was a science nerd from the moment he was born thought my dad was Einstein or Newton. He could’ve believed anything my father told him.
I’m still so grateful that I have a father who was always encouraging, supportive, and very kind yet he was strict and would discipline us when we did wrong.
Thank you Lord for my papa and mama🥺🥺🥺
When she said, "why couldn't my father be more like that?" I just started crying. On the other hand, she is very well disciplined and educated. So her father had some good merits. He saw what was practical in the situation and did his best. He did love her her...even if in his own way. These posts with the people who have defected from North Korea, are in general a great study in human empathy. I wish RUclips would put more sensible things like this on.
Your heart is good, trying to see love in the father, but his treatment of her was not "love". This father related to his child as a object whose performance brought HIM honor or dishonor. In defense of the father, he was probably never loved himself. Fear is good for motivating self-discipline... but the empathy I see in this woman's face was probably instilled by her mother and a result of her own good character.
I'm a cynical old man, yet I still cried when I heard the heartbreaking account of her father's cruelty. How would you ever get over that?
You don't. And in the end the sad truth is that when the parent dies, you feel more relieved than sad, as if a huge weight has been lifted off of you. If you do cry though, it isn't because they died. It's because you mourn the fact that you never had, and never will have the dream of a loving parent. You're left dealing with the mystery of never knowing why your parent behaved like an asshole for no reason, wondering why they screwed up the chances of having any real loving relationship with anyone, and screwed up the people who would have loved them. You're left wondering why the hell were they such huge idiots that f-cked up everything and ended up dying in a pathetic way because they had burned all their bridges, and few or no family members even showing up for the funeral or upset that they're gone.....
you never do. You can see she's still traumatized many years later.
I do it by burying my emotions being the best father to my son. My friend, whose Chinese immigrant parents owned a successful medical practice, goes to therapy twice a week as a 50 year-old married man with a busy career and family. He asked for, and received something very close to an apology from his mother two months before her death and then came forgiveness and closure. His father, who is in very poor health still refuses to go to therapy with him and refuses to admit fault, choosing to pile on even more hurt. All my friend wants is an apology to end the anger in him, but he likely will never get it.
What an introduction.
@@Anacaona4 in my case, my grandfather was a driven man who showed my father and his siblings little affection aside from his favorite. I know my father fought against his upbringing in raising us and I don't hold anything against him for what he didn't know to do. He busted his ass to show us how much he cared, the only way he could show his love for us.
My father was raised by an alcoholic, abusive North Korean father. My father's also an alcoholic. I graduated from an art school but never persude a career in it due to my depression. I'm in my 30's now, still fighting my demons. Point being parents, please raise your kids with love and care bc it'll affect your child's life, even till adulthood.
Something that has helped me is to remember that the negative thoughts throughout our heads and the demons are there to stop you and prevent you from your full potential
It sounds to me like your father and grandfather may have had depression too. I have it myself, and I don't know how I would get through it without the support of loving parents. Hugs and prayers from Canada
It’s total propaganda. It assumes that only American fathers are like this. There are great and terrible fathers in every nation. The issues between DPRK and the U.S. are obviously not about which ones have the best fathers. But people eat this shit up anyway.
I’m 100% sure that if the video showed loving DPRK fathers and an American reacting positively to it, it would be denounced as propaganda. But when the west does it, it’s ok.
Seriously. I’m getting so mad with all these double standards. I used to have more patience and try to educate as many as I could when I was younger but as I’m getting older I’m done with that. Because I don’t know how little critical thinking and ignorant people are to not recognize this.
Even in the West, it’s a stereotype that black fathers are absent or “bad”. It’s a stereotype that Asian parents are firm and strict, unloving. It’s a stereotype that Spanish parents are hotheads. This video isn’t just propaganda, it’s racist.

When she said "Why couldn't my father have done that with me?" my heart wept for her. I didn't have a good dad either, but every child deserves a loving father -- including her. May she have the love of a man who will be a loving father to her family one day. ❤️
Crying listening to your stories of your dad. I'm so sorry you were treated like that.
As a father of five, I can tell you this is a huge cultural difference. Those fathers in North Korea just don't know what they are missing. Those children grow up fast and you miss out on a lot of fun and good memories if you don't get actively involved in raising them, playing with them, loving them and teaching them. Parenting is probably the toughest job in the world, but it has the biggest payback. They grow up and become good people, and your best friends. And if you are lucky, they give you..... grandchildren!
North Korea Is a very tough country where people mostly aren’t fortunate enough to be able to spend time with their kids since they have to do their jobs to get enough money and stuff
It’s very sad :c

She's grown now. A married medical professional who recently purchased a home...right around the corner.

Now that's a comment I can relate to whole heartedly. I didnt care about myself and my first kid was my daughter and I knew I had to do better for her. It snowballed and I kept progressing. Two kids now with my wife and we are happy and ok. Damn my little girl is 15. Time passed so fast.
The fact she can recount these stories of a horrific upbringing by her father, while smiling, is incredible.
What a brave and amazing woman. My heart breaks for the cruelty she lived through, while still remaining someone able to laugh and smile and enjoy interpersonal warmth. She's so articulate; there are no words for how much I respect her and feel for her.
I was raised by a German father. I heard "I love you" twice in my life from him. I had food in my belly, clothes on my back, a pair of new shoes at the first of each school year and a roof over my head. I'm 70 now. His father was meaner than a junk yard dog and hateful! My father never had a chance to know what being a good father meant. He and his siblings were treated worse than anyone I've heard of. I'm not going to judge him. He did the best for us with what he had. I took care of him as he died of colon cancer a few years back and he always heard from me, "I love you, Dad". Right up to his last breath. You mention caning. Oh, how terrible for you and I wish you were never caned. My Dad would use his huge hands when he got angry. My poor brother was treated more poorly than me. He decided never to have kids. We cannot control how we are treated by others, including our parents. We can only decide how we will react. Seeing you in your videos, I'd have to say you turned out pretty well. Blessings to you. United States, Oregon :)
omg..
I'm German and my dad is also in his 70s. And with what you described it sounds like your father and mine grew up in similar circumstances. My dad's father was an absolute tyrant. Dad wasn't a perfect father but not once did he raise his hand at me or my brother. Also I want to let you know that it's not common for Germans to tell others "I love you" - even if it's their own kids. It feels strange and it's hard to say it out loud. But that doesn't make the feelings of love and care we carry in our hearts for those close to us any less. So please don't be too sad that your father couldn't say it back to you. My parents too showed their love in other ways. I hope you could heal and that you can look back without a heavy heart.
When were the two times he said he loved you?
You yearn for tenderness. But I think the German Traditions are like the N K ones. It takes generations to heal it. I'm 70 too, the 4th gen of American s. And it's just now healing. WW II didn't help Dads be vert cuddly either.
This stuff always hurts. I feel somewhat similar, i think my dad was probably nicer than yours but he’s still not the greatest to put it lightly. It really hurts when you can’t trust or speak to a parent. And it sucks when you want to but know if you open up again, it won’t end end well.
But I know he had it worse in many ways, so how he treated us was better than what his life was like. He didn’t have a bad dad, but the general circumstances were bad. It’s hard to blame them for what they’re like, but at the same time you wish they could have taken the steps to be better.
I won’t have children either, I don’t trust myself to be better.
I hope you take care.
Who else wanted to give her a giant hug when she talked about performing in front of her dad’s work as a child of 7, and making a couple mistakes, and getting caned that night? 😔 And how bad she said it made her feel.

@@ErrorDude See, that's the thing... Those things aren't considered abuse in lots of countries. It's just considered the norm.
That broke my heart.
Me and my dad have never been close. He lived with us, but he was narcissistic and abusive. Seeing the smile on her face but the sadness in her eyes is so relatable. Obviously her situation was much more extreme but it hurts to see love you could’ve been given but weren’t. Im glad these dads seem to really care about their childrens happiness.
My dad was strict at times, especially when I was younger, and he made a few mistakes that hurt my feelings. He always meant well though, and he made it a point to be at home with me and not at work all the time. I had lots of fun playing with him, and I still love talking about baseball with him even if I'm not super into the sport.
My dad grew up in a family where his dad was hands off. When I was older my dad asked me one day if I remembered feeding the ducks and running away from swans. I said yes, it was scary but fun and he said that he really enjoyed days where he could take the day off and was in charge of me that day, because he said it felt like he was actually contributing to the family on those days. I asked him a few years ago if he wanted to go feed the ducks and he just laughed saying, "I don't think I can carry you and run away if a swan bites you and you start crying."
No swans that day only geese.
Awwww
sounds like a Good memory
"I can't even imagine that in North Korea, never."
This went dark *REAL* fast.
I guess my parents were that different kind of affiliation :/. I really just went through the time line & associations. Right down to how I even got my name. I was actually named after an English teacher.
But I remember when I was youngen, not even bothering to ask my parents to show up to anything bc idekw. I guess I assumed it just wasn't the Asian thing to do. When I got a little bit older, I kind of yearned for it more, but in the physical realm I still didn't want them to bc they just seemed so hateful. I remember graduation & my dad showing up at an entire 2 events... Well, 3. A soccer game, a soccer scrimmage thing, I dont even remember what they're called, (I was just not trying to stay at home) & either my kindergarten/ 1st grade graduation. Apparently this is just an American thing. But when I was a munchkin, I did love my dad at some pt. He surprised me on my bday celebration,... im a summer kid, (I'm not even sure if this was different days. W/ my graduation day.* so maybe, 4) I was like 😍 my dad! I got cake & apple juice! & the some of the kids were like but I dont even like apple juice. So I went to go sit on his lap & said,"it's OK dad. I like apple juice tho." He did show up w/ a lot of gaterade at that game tho. & I thought, wow, he went all out. & this 1 girl who always had a problem w/ me showed up w/ a whole bunch of those barrel looking juice things on my day, idk what they're called. Those old school things but I just thought, wow, she's weird. I told my dad that's the girl that picks on me. He didn't say much but just acknowledged her. I remember coming off the bus once ( this is how young I was) crying. Bc her & some other girl said I smelt like fish ( bc I slept around alot) & that I stuffed my bra. I absolutely never even slept w/ anyone in my senior yr., I sure as hell wasn't doing it that young. But I didn't stuff my bra either & walked off that bus crying & my mom saw me, & asked me whats wrong. Some time went on & my dad asked me "out of the blue" if those girls were still bugging me. But I told him no. I told him bc my snap back was 1 was a flat chested bish, & that the other 1 was a fat ass & then they never bothered me again... & he thought I was just the most hilarious thing ever. :/ but I do remember all he times he was around tho. I did not want him to leave me on my 1st day of kindergarten & I absolutely cried for him to not leave. He was the 1 who taught me how to ride a bike too. He only pretended he was behind me & I'd only crash once he'd start get all excited like, " you're doing it by yourself!"
I love my daughter more than I can ever fully express. She loves being in dance, cheer, and softball. Allowing her the freedom to find the things she enjoys then supporting her in them is rewarding as a father because I know that she is finding happiness in her own way. At no point in her endeavors will mistepping on a dance or routine, or making an error in a game bring any amount of shame to anyone. Being able to love her regardless of anything is my reward for having a wonderful daughter.
My father took his own life when I was 13 (Im 19 as of writing this). He was a hard working man with a backbreaking job in a factory living paycheck to paycheck, yet he always found time to spend with all 6 of his children. I miss him every day, I could never imagine what my life would've been like without him.
Her accordion story is heartbreaking.
Imagine your child being so anxious to perform for you that she messes up,
And in response you hit her with a stick that night 💔 oh, I am so sad thinking of that

Hearing her stories about her father and how she wished he was warm and loving makes me wish I could have been her father and given her that love. Breaks my heart to hear about her upbringing.
First of all, thank you for being so honest and genuine! And for sharing at all. Thank you for appreciating the differences. I have to say, I'm not really in an emotional place or anything, but hearing about you being caned and told you disgraced the family at seven...for a few missed notes, just made me cry. I'm sure that your father loves you very much. But I can't imagine how much that hurt your little heart. You didn't deserve that. I'm so glad to hear how you raise your children more with love than caning.
Seeing a father with his children having fun is truly a wonderful thing. When our 4 girls almost knock their dad down with hugs when he comes home it is the highlight of his day.
I'm sure that he will always remeber that kind of thing....even when your girls get old. ^^
As someone who's father was a military man, whenever my dad would come home, I too would almost tackle him. Those are one of my favorite memories of him. I still almost tackle him now as a full grown adult 😅

yep guy must be off his meds. Remember his name, might be on the news some day.
American father's for the most part love spending time with their kids. So do father's in other countries. That has no barrier.
I, too, wish I had a loving dad as a kid. You don't realize how important it truly is until you're an adult and feel like you missed out on a key part of life. I love that so many American dads are doing great jobs and I hope it continues to spread. ❤
I had a dad from the depression era. He was short on affection, long on punishment, and crushed me with criticism when I was a little boy. I still remember that day he laughed at my little model of dinosaurs and bushes made from cut up sponges. So derisive, and my mom made him come down where I was crying and try to make up, but it was too late, he'd broken my little spirit. I took care of him until he died, because it's a sons duty to do so. I just wish that anything I've ever done was good enough. I've written 12 novels, but published none. I found God, and at least He loves me. Even at the age of 67, a father's words can cut so deep and it never really heals.
I’m sorry your dad treated you that way.
I'm so sorry that his brokenness hurt you ❤ My dad was also broken. Thankfully, it IS possible to heal! I've been blessed with a couple of amazing therapists and an endless supply of Help from Above, and today I look back on those years of pain and, while I remember being hurt, I'm no longer re-living it! There is a way to heal and be happy, I promise! 🥰
God bless and I'm glad you found Him and His love! As a fellow author I encourage you to publish those books, even just for you! 😊
When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take care of me. Psalms 27:10
Sorry bro 😢
I feel bad for her dad. Imagine being taught to be so distant from people that you don’t have anyone who truly loves you.
One NK woman on another channel said that they do not naturally have a word for “love” in traditional Korean that they speak. There are no words for “rape” nor “assault” either. The women get attacked and move on with their days because there is no such things as “rights” for them either. She said that several times soldiers would break into their home and rape her mother, but she didn’t know what that was nor what they were doing until she got to SK and learned more of the language and ways of freedom there. She said, many women in NK will say that they are married and sometimes that makes the soldiers leave them alone, but not always. If you flat out say “No!” they may kill you or imprison you so women rarely fight because they are literally at the bottom of the societal totem pole/food chain meant for breeding, and pleasures. They do not “date” either. It’s all mostly arranged marriages and the women do not get to complain to their parents. The parents are making a deal between families they think uplift the household in some way. Like back in Bible days.
@@ThatBlackPiano I think that was "Voice of North Korea by Yeonmi Park", correct? She is very well spoken.
@@welshie2007 Ah yes, the BIBLE is why (some) women in western countries have had increased rights for about a hundred years. Here I thought it was because the industrial revolution created a role for women outside of the home, in a workforce which undervalued and underpaid them, leading to their promotion of better living and working conditions and giving rise to the suffrage movement, with activists having to go to such lengths as committing arson and planting bombs for their right to vote.
@@natsinthebelfry actually jesus at his time did defend women a lot, just bc his fandom was and is crap, mostly in America, it doesn't mean he did not do anything. At the time he did help. Why do you think that someone doing something is stating that nobody did nothing else, or that it was over there? Oh sure "why would I not have rights, I have a constitution" it's what you are saying lol you are just salty but it is your problem. Someone saying a certain person did a good thing or an advance doesn't mean the deal is over or nobody else did anything, that is literally what an advance is about. Maybe if you focused on getting things done like he did instead of crying for something that is literally true, as you can see in a lot of times when jesus protected women and rejected their sexualisation (like in Matthew 5:29, when he is asked to tell the women to dress more "appropriate" since the men found them temtating, and he told them that if their eyes caused then to sin they should pull them out and throw them away instead) you could reach to actually make honour to the rights you seem to know that much about. Maybe making an enemy of anyone you don't know about because it looks edgy is not that good of an idea. I'm agnostic, but at least I try to know when to shut up and realise I don't know honey, and you missed that chance
@@unlimon6382 For an agnostic you sure sound mad that I shifted the conversation away from the bible and gave credit to actual women who fought for their actual equality.
Makes me feel like the luckiest person in the world to have the Dad I do. He is my buddy. He taught me my multiplication tables and drove me to school every day in High School. I've lost count how many times that he told me that he was proud of me. I wish I could share my Dad with those who didn't get those experiences.
My father raised me in the garage teaching me how to change a tire or the oil. He built race cars for the drag strip.....he done his own body work, painted cars & rebuilt engines. I too know how to do all of that stuff thanks to him 😊 After the work was done we went to McDonald's for a happy meal. My parents divorced when I was 3. I went to my father's house every weekend & I have the best memories......memories I still cherish. My children even got to experience the McDonald's happy meals with him when he would take them for the weekend ❤ They are 19 & 21 now. We've been very lucky to have a man like him in our lives.
I'd love to see her react to Father daughter dances at weddings, first looks from the father before weddings, parents reacting to pregnancy announcements that they're going to become grandparents, grandpa's playing with kids, father's reactions to foster children asking to be adopted or when adoption papers are approved, Father's reactions to their children playing sports and being in the Olympics etc.
I'd like to too, but I also can't see her in ny more pain
It’s total propaganda. It assumes that only American fathers are like this. There are great and terrible fathers in every nation. The issues between DPRK and the U.S. are obviously not about which ones have the best fathers. But people eat this shit up anyway.
I’m 100% sure that if the video showed loving DPRK fathers and an American reacting positively to it, it would be denounced as propaganda. But when the west does it, it’s ok.

Even in the West, it’s a stereotype that black fathers are absent or “bad”. It’s a stereotype that Asian parents are firm and strict, unloving. It’s a stereotype that Spanish parents are hotheads. This video isn’t just propaganda, it’s racist.

@@tungsten8290 this Patrick dude copy pasted he's monologue to like every top comment there is. He's propaganda trash himself.
So used to abuse that she is embracing her father actions instead of condemning them. I was abused in many ways as a child and I just couldn’t justify it. My mom apologized before she died and I forgave. But her story of being beat because she messed up in a musical recital breaks my heart for her. I agree it makes you a strong person as an adult to have survived abuse as a child, but that really shouldn’t justify the action thereof.
It is very possible to become a strong person without having to carry all that mental baggage , some parents think that abuse is justified and that they are just being strict but one can be strict and nonabusive . Whenever i think i need to be strict to a child i try to do it in a constrictive but kind calm manner and just talk and try to explain why they cant have or can do certain things.
I think a better way of looking at it is, you're a strong person, in spite of the abuse.
I think the key to why, is how general a certain thing is. Like after WWII, there were so much violence at home in German families, that the children did not care. Seen with todays eyes it is horrible, however back then it was just normal.
My father have only done physical punishment one single time. That was when I thought it was a good idea to rip up the outer leather bindings of a book from 1725 and chew on the pieces. Mostly because that leather contained heavy metal like mercury that was used in production.
@@brostenen Normal yes, right, no. But I understand, they didn't know any better or the lasting effect. My dad had a violent temper and I was supposed to do homework but I went to pet the neighbourhood cat and met them, he knocked my head against the floor and I had that funny feeling that I was use to. Turns out, I was having a concussion and didn't know about it. It wasn't the first time I had but I grew use to it.
My father was Maltese, older sister always argued with him. She would always tell him he didn’t love us, he’s reply would be I put food an the table, clothes on your back, and a roof over your head. I think that was he’s way of saying I love you. One day my mother sat us down and told us that when we were asleep he would come into our rooms give us a kiss and say he loved us, same thing happened before he left for work. If my father was alive today he would have been 105, I’m 73. Men we’re different than.
Love you dad and thank you.😘❤️
It brings me such joy seeing my husband interact with my children like this. He dressed up as Spider-Man for my sons birthday party and my son thought it was the best thing ever! ❤️❤️❤️
I must say, considering her past, she has grown up to be a positive, charming person.
Yes, but behind all that positivity, is a lot of sadness, and that can never go away.
It’s amazing to see how everything she wanted from her dad is something so simple; just a hug or to be a really engaged dad at her school concert or just for her father to hold her in her lap.....I’m really at a loss for words.....

I had a very strict father. He was strict because that’s what he knew and because he loved us. Father’s aren’t perfect, but we love our children!
As kids, on weekends my dad would watch tv and my sister & I would climb all over him, even on the back of the couch. I'd play with the hair on his head, my sister played with the hair on his arm. He loved every minute and never ever told us to stop. When we had birthdays, he'd go the piano (he was a musician) and play Happy Birthday, and sing to us. He never hit us, has always been patient, soft spoken, and slow to anger. We've never feared our dad. Now we're in our early 50s, and he's still the same, kind, loving father to us. He'd do anything in his power for us. We've been so fortunate to have him as a father.

My dad and I have a difficult relationship and we piss each other off constantly, we've gone periods without speaking to each other, but I still can do dumb things and laugh with him and this makes me appreciate those moments more.
@@patricks1333 There are absolutely differences. They're just using American fathers as one example. I'm not from the US, and I would say that I'm from a country where fathers are more engaged in their children's lives than Americans, but that's not important here. Different cultures have different traits. That's what makes them different cultures. Not all traits are good. That's how it is. Cultures also influence each other and develop and change, and while Korean fatherhood might need to change nobody is denying that Korean culture has nothing to teach Americans.
@@patricks1333 can u shut up?
Keep in mind that kids really bring out the best and most fun sides of their dads when they're small. And these are not the times that we are old enough to remember later on in life. Whatever negativity your dad may have in his life, guaranteed he still loves his family very much.
She has cptsd obviously, so I’m in awe of her ability to not dissociate in this scenario where she’s both reflecting on past trauma and having to compare her experiences with infinitely more positive childhoods. What a difficult thing for her to do… I imagine she’s done tremendous work to come to terms with her past. Very impressive
As a father of two amazing little girls...I could never think of caning them. I hope that is not the "normal" thing to do to young children in NK.
There are exceptions for sure, but unfortunately, listening to the stories of the people from NK in various media, it seems to be common there. It's scary to think about what behaviors can be considered as "normal" when they are installed in people from the start. You'll still find people like that in US and elsewhere too, they're often hiding behind being "traditional" and the whole communities are like that, so it normalizes such behaviors there as well. These are the same people who are saying that kids today are "lazy" and "spoiled". I'm not a parent but most kids I know are even smarter and more creative than my generation ever was, so I'm often wondering - are we even living in the same reality?
@ It is absolutely true that American parents can be highly abusive. It is far from the norm, though, whereas in a lot of Asian and perhaps African countries abuse is very common.
Being an Indian, I can confirm that beating children is a norm and even considered necessary in many Asian Societies. And especially Fathers are exactly like the way she described and Mothers are the ones who try to protect or save kids from their fathers by either covering up their kid's 'mistakes' or directly coming in between the physical violence.

I spend hours playing with my daughter just because the sound of her laugh is the best part of my day. I couldn't imagine not being hands on with my baby 😭
I've always felt I was the luckiest daughter in the world when it came to my parents. One small instance I remember, I had a really strong sentimental attachment to this tiny yellow bear and I took it with me to school one time. Came home and couldn't find it on me so I thought I accidentally threw it away and it got chucked in the outside bins. I felt extremely devastated but I didn't cry or sulk, yet when I told my father about it he could immediately tell it meant a lot to me so he went out to the bins and looked in all four of them (and these are massive sized bins meant to take in the rubbish of all the council flats in our area). He spent at least 20 minutes rummaging in those bins just for a tiny toy. He came back and siggested I look in my jacket pocket and we found them. He didn't get mad or even looked annoyed, just laughed at how he should have suggested it first before anything else, and my mother joined in the laughter by teasing him about how he was a "servant" to his daughter, to which he agreed.
No matter how small my problems were growing up he always went as far as he could to solve the situation. He's done so much more for me even though some of the situations would have gotten a mere dismissal from other types of parents. I just hope I can be as good of a parent as mine have been to me, and I make the effort to write down the things they've done as a parent so that I can continue this type of parenting for when I later have children.
I'm happy for you and also I strongly resonate with your username.
I feel the same as you. I feel that the best gift I could ever receive from the universe is my loving parents. I savor every second I am with them. And they showed me how I should be if I have children too. I'm glad you feel this way too, we are so fortunate, and I grieve for everybody who never was able to feel this kind of love and support from parents.
Amazing username
It's nice. For me, my father probably wouldn't care, would have said "that's what you get for being forgetful" and even if he would've searched, he would've probably blamed me for teddy being in my pocket and making him to search.
Worst part of it, I probably would blame my own kid same way he would...
That is so wholesome. *happy tears* So wonderful.
my father dealt with alcoholism his entire adult life and he was never able to beat it. it altered the way we lived, the way i was raised, altered my entire life. he did his best while also dealing with his own battles, but there were more bad days than good. despite that, there was never a day in my entire life, even now, that i doubted he loved me and my siblings with everything he had in him. when he was sober he was the most incredible father anyone could ever dream of having. to see such simple acts in this video be considered remarkable in other countries and cultures really really changes my perspective on a lot of things.
I fought in three wars. Life is too short and nasty not to let kids have their fun. It’s a joy that life mostly disappears. I’ve got five kids and they all get their hugs.

God bless America and the great Dads that it produces. People take that amazing country for granted.
My dad was the best. As far back as I can remember, he was 100% involved my and my sister's lives. He went to school events, read to us, played kickball in the backyard, taught us to swim, rode roller coasters with us, and made sure we knew we were loved. He wasn't afraid to show emotion either. He'd cry right along with us at sad movies and would cry with happiness when we accomplished major things like getting married, graduating from college, and having kids. I miss him. Around the age of 10 I first realized not all dads were like that, and realized I was lucky.
This makes me appreciate my husband so much. He's an amazing father.

you may be right in that this is a form of propaganda, but cultural differences of what parenthood means does very much exist. no matter the culture, a father's role is to provide for their children. but what that looks like varies and there are good and bad fathers within those variations. of course, there are outliers that step outside of cultural norms, too. I lived in Japan and stayed with 5 different families, it was really interesting to see how different their family systems are (and how similar, too!) It's totally true that if the roles were reversed and it was N Korea showing videos of good dads, we would scream propaganda at them. but I'm almost certain that what those good Korean fathers would be doing would look different from what our standards of a "good father" looks like.
When i was little about 5 or 6 my dad would load me up in the truck after it rained and he would take me looking for rainbows. He said one day we would find our pot of gold. He’d say which way? i’d scream go left go right. we would drive the gravel roads for hours. After he died i was driving those same roads and passed under a rainbow that was over the road. I really miss him. He was my hero.
I would've given you a big hug and jumped p and down screaming That's MY daughter ! Even now I am sending you a big hug and clapping . You are very sweet.
It's also a generational thing. I'm a 65 year old Canadian 🇨🇦 and my Dad (who's 91 now) never played with us. It makes me so happy to see young Dad's goofing around with their kids. They will have the intimate relationship I wish I could have with my Dad.
I can't believe how still optimistic she sounds while describing her cold father and even crying because of these memories
I can honestly say that despite all the stupid or thoughtless things that I did as a kid my father never once disciplined me in anger. He was thoughtful and patient with me my entire life. He passed on three years ago and I have never missed anyone as much as my Dad.
Fathers play with kids very differently than mothers and both create a wonderful balance.
some kids version of play wont like some fathers, especially if your kid is autistic... getting bitten, scratched, attacked a daily occurrence in our home, but would defend my son to the death is he was attacked.
