The only way to help the North Korean people is by speaking out about the regime. The world can't be silent anymore. People are starving every single day and no one does anything about it. Why won't the UN do anything for the NK people?
@@KitKat_momof3 Because they can't do anything about it. North korea has nukes and China supports North korea because both are communist. In fact China doesn't even acknowledge those seeking asylum from North Korea and China has become very powerful in the past few decades. There's 50% chance that even Russia might side with North korea so any aggression on North Korea would mean the beginning of world war 3. If you're talking about sanctions, then North korea would not be affected by any sanctions because it's an autarky. If you think you can somehow assissinate the dictator then even that is next to impossible because he has very very high security and all the people holding a gun around him are brainwashed ( literally brainwashed) and checked repeatedly if they show loyalty towards him or not. No one can do anything about the country even though almost all countries want to help people living in that country.
@@achyuththouta6957 China isn't communist, it's more capitalist than most countries (albeit with a strong protectionist streak). What China IS is coldly pragmatic. Like it or not, it's bad business to have North Korea as a neighbor. If the Kim Dynasty goes kaput, then Northeastern China is going to be swamped with North Korean refugees who would rather flee while they can rather than see what happens when the dust settles (very understandably). Unfortunately, the parts of China that are right next door to NK, ergo where the majority of the refugees would go, are pretty impoverished as is, so that's eventually going to cause a lot of tensions in an already hyper-competitive job-market. Meanwhile, if North Korea starts a war, it's also bad for business, since China would rather keep making money from the other nations, thank you very much. Either way, China doesn't want the NK situation to have a drastic change that will end in war OR refugees fleeing to their side of the border, which means keeping the status quo as is (for now).

Is this true? If it's true, is it discrimination by just SK people or the goverment as well? And lastly, why do they get discriminated? I'm very curious about the answers. Thank you in advance
@@ranmeh9936 Actually, they face discrimination from some citizens. The goverment even provide them a house rent free for 5 years. They also educate them about stuff that doesn't exist in NK such as TV, Internet, bus and so on. SK is really warm towards them, but yeah some people think they are ignorant, poor, uneducated, or spies from NK, stuff like that...
@@adakkk5883 it seems like ignorant privileged people hating foreigners is a universal thing...even if those foreigners are from your same common culture
I still remember that North Korean soldier making his daring desperate escape across the border, 1st driving as fast as he can as his fellow soldiers scramble to go after him, he drives as close as he could get then having to jump out and make a last mad dash on foot with a hail of bullets all aimed at him! I’ve never seen anything like! Then to watch him collapse on the other side and be dragged to safety by waiting soldiers and hoping he survives. Just crazy! He had intestinal worms, malnourished, bullets in him, really bad shape but survived.

dayum this gave me goosebumps, i feel so bad for those people who are forced to offer in North Korea. I can't imagine living a life where its a suicide mission to get human rights. ):
I imagine soldiers and their families are treated relatively well compared to civilians. That combined with the amount of brainwashing to get to that point would surely stunt any thoughts of betrayal.

That's not even the half of it, during the worse years of the 80s and 90s North Korea was in big trouble, their finances collapsed and the nation was in tatters. Food was so scarce that people turned to cannibalism, eating family, neighbours, anything, people were picking bugs out of the ground basically doing anything they could to eat.
North Korea is a reminder to me that when you lose your freedoms that it is a long, hard, dangerous road to get them back if at all. Don't give up any freedoms without a fight because this is where it ultimately ends up once you start down that road.

my deepest sympathy to the people of North Korea living in pain and agony while their leader is having a luxurious life. God bless u people of North Korea
why focus on the negatives? the fact that they are reporting these means more sympathizers can join in and help these defectors instead and thus opening up more escape plans or routes for them. Do not dwell too much in darkness.
You actually think these are the routes they take? You must be a bit dim. These are obviously not the routes they take, they're not stupid, they know what they're doing
+ i don't doubt a lot of defectors have news and contact from people there to say what's happening. I don't think the nk gov will talk about defectors on the news, but they probably have contacts saying "oh the border is full of military men". The defectors kinda all took this route, im not surprised if they talked about how they defected and how its the same.
Of course it will be harder. Every strategies of defectors have been publicized. NK knows everything now. NK will not just sit and watch like watching a movie, will it?
Bruh, these methods are the most logical and feasible ways to escape the country. Do you seriously think North Korean government never thought of these and are googling "how to catch defectors"?
NK already knew all of this. It simply allows some people to escape, because it would be too expensive to shut the border down fully. Letting some people out is also a good safety valve. Inevitably those who escape will be those most creative, bravest and most dissatisfied with the regime - prime material for internal rebellions, in other words. Let a few leave and you've starved the would-be rebels of their finest, who instead risk life and limb to starve the potential of any rebellion a little more.
The sad thing is that it works in China's favor for NK to exist. If SK had their democratic freedom and the military of NK it would be a serious danger to China right on its doorstep like that.
@@McHrozni They risk life and limb for freedom - it's easy for you to mock that from the safety of your own home in a free country when you never had to pay for that with your own skin. Their responsibility is to themselves - the concept of patriotism in an overdone western concept, more so than anywhere else in the US. That same patriotism becomes fanaticism under the likes of the Kim regime, that is precisely why they have no choice but to run - because being so much as suspected of dissenting against the govmt will get you a prime spot in an internment camp. Being known to have committed treason against the regime will just get you dead, and everyone around you. This isn't cops and robbers, or cowboys and indians - this is the grim, cruel real life these people have to live in 24/7.
It's a way more precarious situation than a lot of people realize. I can't speak for everyone else out there (nor do I claim to be an expert), but here in the U.S. a lot citizens say that we should just invade the DPRK and depose the government. But those same people don't understand how dangerous that would be for both sides. For example, if the North Korean borders were breached, many (if not all) of the people currently being held in their internment camps would be killed immediately to preserve resources and food. There's also the issue of China not wanting an influx of North Korean refugees crossing their borders to escape the chaos. On top of the DPRK being a "buffer zone" to keep U.S./European influence away from Chinese borders. Basically, there's many ways that trying to handle the situation can go wrong and very few ways that it can go right. Sorry for the long comment.
@@Akakaze22 there’s also the fact that both countries are nuclear powers. So, if they go to all out war there’s a very real possibility one of them may get trigger happy with nukes.

@@dodedidadodadido: "The logic of "it could be worse" could be used by literally anyone in any circumstance."

Absolutely.

The list goes on, and I’d much rather that than be under the control of that disgusting regime!
Well the border in south and north are way heavyly guarded because each country is checking on each other. Passing through the border of NK and SK is basically passing through a military camp.
I pray for all north Korean people that they will be free. I also pray, that the leader of north Korea's rain comes to an end soon and the people are set free.
God bless South Korea for welcoming these poor people with open arms and saving their lives.. no wonder South Korea s so prosperous and modern it's really blessing from God for their good deeds... 🙏🙏🙏
To be honest , if I was a North Korean , I would do the same no matter if chance of death is very high....that’s the beauty of a human spirit to never give up
Liberty did perish in NK - that's why they run. Idiotic that they call it defecting though - that's like calling a slave running from their beating master a defector.
I cried so hard. As a south korean myself living comfortably in New York, I felt so heart broken over the fact that someone from my half of the country must go through this to may of may not be able to cross a small border and eat what I have for 12 bucks or sleep on a bed like mine.
Oh you want to really cry South Korea was a dictatorship until the late eighties So South Korea was the dictatorship and it still is And you want to know the really fucked up shit that happens in South Korea elderly have to resort to prostitution just to have their medication. South Koreans are abandoning their culture they are abandoning their elders. And when they're not doing that they're committing suicide due to stress. It is a dictatorship of businessmen. During the time when it was under American military occupation they murdered and slaughtered Koreans in massacres. Because they thought wrong because they were socialists. But the South Koreans were doing were thought crimes
Probably the longest comment I've written - Having to risk your own life for freedom. Knowing, generations of your family are going to be punished. Probably one the hardest things to do. This is the year 2021 and there are still so many atrocities taking place. The poor, starving North Korean people deserve freedom, and some much more. I feel so very passionate about this. To see the little orphans lying down broke my heart.
Is there somewhere to donate funds to people like this guy helping others escape? Because that job description sounds badass and I'd like to provide fuel to that fire
I mean, the fact that he got into the position of power when he was the younger half-brother of the heir and the son of a not so liked concubine should have told people just how ruthless he was.
In China we learnt friendship between Chinese&North Korean ppl in elementary school but our gov also reward locals for catching&reporting those defectors, send them back to face death penalty, that's most ruthless friendship.
This is really sad, I wish I can help those people. I NEVER wish death on people but I'm wishing death on Kim Jong whatever his name is right now. This shit is what pisses me tf off
If you are placing maps on RUclips don't you think North Korean Spies see this? So you actually help more defectors get caught by showing routes for escapees.
I feel genuinely sorry for these people. They will come in peace and just want to be helped away from alone of misery. Lots say this but I feel their flee is genuine
People don’t realize how blessed they are. I am very thankful for my freedoms and hope one day the North Korean people can have better, freer lives too.

@@MyFirstHandle it's an interesting balance that has to be struck. People need to know about what's happening, North Korea likely won't stop on their own. By that same token, telling your captor how you escaped is not what should be happening.
A part of my family came from the border town Tumen right across North Korea. The river is shallow that most defectors cross from there, but Chinese have been constructing tall fences and cutting down dense trees on their side to remove any hiding spots. This was in 2019 summer and I assume that it may have been worse by now
One man just has a whole land with a lot of people as his personal toy. Just like Turkmenistan for example. And the saddest thing - their victims will never get justice
But the sad thing is that there are foreign countries and governments who have business with these dictators, both with the North Korean regime and with the Turkmenistan regime. China and Russia are the biggest supporters of these dictators and do support them, because they benefit from it.
@@angeldreamzzz9692 I think if you google it you will find relevant information. North Korea is probably the most hard-core communist regime in the world, and so is China (if not as strict and hard-core as North Korea). China is also a communist country, so they have of course a lot of common ideologically. Russia is a former communist country but they still have quite some of that communist heritage. So ideologically and based on politics these countries have a lot in common. As both Russia and China have veto right in the UN, basically every time a UN resolution wants to condemn North Korea, it is blocked by Russia and China, because they want to protect and back-up North Korea. Beside politics, they also have a lot of business together. North Korea has some mineral resources (coal and more) and also some natural resources (rivers and seas from where they get fish) that they trade with Russia and China. So Russia and China don't want this relation to disappear, because they get it cheap from North Korea as they can't sell to many other countries. Lot of people in North Korea are starving and have hard times finding enough food on everyday basis, yet the North Korean regime puts most of its revenues on its army and its nuclear weapons. For the money they get by selling their resources to China and Russia they buy materials to develop more weapons and buy more equipment for their army, mainly from China and Russia. China and Russia want to keep this business no matter what. They only see the money, and not the harsh brutality of the North Korean regime. The Turkmenistan regime is not as brutal as the North Korean one, but they also have some oppression and it's basically a dictatorship (although perhaps not as harsh as in NK). They too have plenty of business with China and Russia. Turkmenistan has also some natural resources, mainly natural gas and perhaps some oil, that they export till China and other countries. I assume China gets this gas cheap (because few other countries do business with the Turkmen dictatorship). Russia has their own gas, but they do business with Turkmenistan including other products. So both Russia and China support Turkmenistan. Also, geographically both Turkmenistan and NK are in the same geographical area as Russia and China. North Korea shares borders with China and Russia. So not only politically, but also geographically they do share some interests. China and Russia don't want change in either of these countries, because it could spread to their own countries and inspire their own citizens to start protesting and demanding change. For these reasons, China and Russia support Turkmenistan and North Korea and several other dictatorships, because they both benefit from it.
@@angeldreamzzz9692 No problem. My honor. Sadly, politics can often get dirty. Some regimes and leaders at least try to make a good image, but some don't even care. No doubt that people in North Korea are suffering. That's one of the most brutal regimes in the world. I wish we could all live in a free world, but I'd say we are far from that. I don't know how much longer the people of North Korea have to wait to get their freedom. I wish everyone could enjoy freedom.

The fact you are reporting this, limits the possibility of future defectors’ s livelihood
why focus on the negatives? the fact that they are reporting these means more sympathizers can join in and help these defectors instead and thus opening up more escape plans or routes for them. Do not dwell too much in darkness.
You actually think these are the routes they take? You must be a bit dim. These are obviously not the routes they take, they're not stupid, they know what they're doing
No
Those are old routes, and if you succeed you're stuck in china for years, they probably mostly don't take those routes anymore.
+ i don't doubt a lot of defectors have news and contact from people there to say what's happening.
I don't think the nk gov will talk about defectors on the news, but they probably have contacts saying "oh the border is full of military men".
The defectors kinda all took this route, im not surprised if they talked about how they defected and how its the same.
Of course it will be harder. Every strategies of defectors have been publicized. NK knows everything now. NK will not just sit and watch like watching a movie, will it?
If there's one thing Kim underestimates all the time, it's human creativity.
Bruh, these methods are the most logical and feasible ways to escape the country. Do you seriously think North Korean government never thought of these and are googling "how to catch defectors"?
NK already knew all of this. It simply allows some people to escape, because it would be too expensive to shut the border down fully.
Letting some people out is also a good safety valve. Inevitably those who escape will be those most creative, bravest and most dissatisfied with the regime - prime material for internal rebellions, in other words. Let a few leave and you've starved the would-be rebels of their finest, who instead risk life and limb to starve the potential of any rebellion a little more.
The sad thing is that it works in China's favor for NK to exist.
If SK had their democratic freedom and the military of NK it would be a serious danger to China right on its doorstep like that.
@@McHrozni They risk life and limb for freedom - it's easy for you to mock that from the safety of your own home in a free country when you never had to pay for that with your own skin.
Their responsibility is to themselves - the concept of patriotism in an overdone western concept, more so than anywhere else in the US.
That same patriotism becomes fanaticism under the likes of the Kim regime, that is precisely why they have no choice but to run - because being so much as suspected of dissenting against the govmt will get you a prime spot in an internment camp.
Being known to have committed treason against the regime will just get you dead, and everyone around you.
This isn't cops and robbers, or cowboys and indians - this is the grim, cruel real life these people have to live in 24/7.

These idiots are dumb for telling the real routes. If I was them I'd just say I don't remember and that'd be the end of that.
😟
China and North Korea figured this route long before defectors used it themselves. People still escape despite that. So don't worry.
Its a matter of lobbying and money, these routes were already known by the NK authorities long ago
Rookie mistake from the BBC
Makes me wonder why on Earth is the world tiptoeing in that direction.
It's a way more precarious situation than a lot of people realize. I can't speak for everyone else out there (nor do I claim to be an expert), but here in the U.S. a lot citizens say that we should just invade the DPRK and depose the government. But those same people don't understand how dangerous that would be for both sides. For example, if the North Korean borders were breached, many (if not all) of the people currently being held in their internment camps would be killed immediately to preserve resources and food.
There's also the issue of China not wanting an influx of North Korean refugees crossing their borders to escape the chaos. On top of the DPRK being a "buffer zone" to keep U.S./European influence away from Chinese borders. Basically, there's many ways that trying to handle the situation can go wrong and very few ways that it can go right.
Sorry for the long comment.

Is hard to believe making all that journey is safer than just crossing the boarder to South Korea
Well the border in south and north are way heavyly guarded because each country is checking on each other. Passing through the border of NK and SK is basically passing through a military camp.

But the sad thing is that there are foreign countries and governments who have business with these dictators, both with the North Korean regime and with the Turkmenistan regime. China and Russia are the biggest supporters of these dictators and do support them, because they benefit from it.
@@sarkaniemi Wow how do I learn more
@@angeldreamzzz9692 I think if you google it you will find relevant information. North Korea is probably the most hard-core communist regime in the world, and so is China (if not as strict and hard-core as North Korea). China is also a communist country, so they have of course a lot of common ideologically. Russia is a former communist country but they still have quite some of that communist heritage. So ideologically and based on politics these countries have a lot in common. As both Russia and China have veto right in the UN, basically every time a UN resolution wants to condemn North Korea, it is blocked by Russia and China, because they want to protect and back-up North Korea. Beside politics, they also have a lot of business together. North Korea has some mineral resources (coal and more) and also some natural resources (rivers and seas from where they get fish) that they trade with Russia and China. So Russia and China don't want this relation to disappear, because they get it cheap from North Korea as they can't sell to many other countries. Lot of people in North Korea are starving and have hard times finding enough food on everyday basis, yet the North Korean regime puts most of its revenues on its army and its nuclear weapons. For the money they get by selling their resources to China and Russia they buy materials to develop more weapons and buy more equipment for their army, mainly from China and Russia. China and Russia want to keep this business no matter what. They only see the money, and not the harsh brutality of the North Korean regime.
The Turkmenistan regime is not as brutal as the North Korean one, but they also have some oppression and it's basically a dictatorship (although perhaps not as harsh as in NK). They too have plenty of business with China and Russia. Turkmenistan has also some natural resources, mainly natural gas and perhaps some oil, that they export till China and other countries. I assume China gets this gas cheap (because few other countries do business with the Turkmen dictatorship). Russia has their own gas, but they do business with Turkmenistan including other products. So both Russia and China support Turkmenistan. Also, geographically both Turkmenistan and NK are in the same geographical area as Russia and China. North Korea shares borders with China and Russia. So not only politically, but also geographically they do share some interests. China and Russia don't want change in either of these countries, because it could spread to their own countries and inspire their own citizens to start protesting and demanding change. For these reasons, China and Russia support Turkmenistan and North Korea and several other dictatorships, because they both benefit from it.
@@sarkaniemi wow thank you for writing so much. This is crazy!
@@angeldreamzzz9692 No problem. My honor. Sadly, politics can often get dirty. Some regimes and leaders at least try to make a good image, but some don't even care. No doubt that people in North Korea are suffering. That's one of the most brutal regimes in the world. I wish we could all live in a free world, but I'd say we are far from that. I don't know how much longer the people of North Korea have to wait to get their freedom. I wish everyone could enjoy freedom.
This is like GDR all over again.
gdr was cool though
Even worse....
