  • “My uncle died of starvation in front of me.”
    We hear from a North Korean refugee who escaped their country twice. The harrowing story includes forced repatriation, famine, torture in North Korean labor camps as well as trafficking.
    Now speaking from the safety of the UK, they talk about what life is like in North Korea, reuniting with their son in China and the harrowing torture within the labor camps.
    Informer is a series where we hear the anonymised confessions and insights of people in positions of power on the inside of important institutions.

      @v a n i a ! yeah sure take down the worlds biggest trading and distributor country while also trying to take down a country that size. Even if the allies were to win, which they probably could, by the time the war ended the death count would sky rocket. Yes we have beef with China but nothing too threatening to go to war.
      Only realistic way to liberate NK is if NK makes the first move of war because China has warned them countless times saying if you invade we aren't helping. The last thing China wants is to go to war with the countries they trade with and to go against the allies in war. Yes they believe that they can win but they also know that the country would be in ruins at the end of it
