Whenever I watch your videos I feel like I’m in a class dedicated to learning about North Korea you are a great teacher and I’m proud to be one of your students 🇰🇵
Feel the same way. And I would like to follow here in Bulgaria and help more ppl know about it, know about her, watch her videos and I am sure many will feel it, especially when we have been under communism for 50 years and we still feel the harm of it.

When i lived in north korea i was good at ballet and i was asked to perform for the leader in 2000 year junbun 63, i was then asked to join a dance club dedicated to the leader but broke my leg, after just 2 weeks we was all paid very well 50 dollers a week one day there was famine and i fell asleep on this train track and woke up in the USA and realised i have never set foot in North korea and all this is pure garbage just as much as what comes out of miss park.
The higher officials are a disgust. Living in shame and the irony teaching their citizens what is supposed to be indoctrinated in their minds all their lives....their citizens are PRISONERS OF THEIR OWN COUNTRY.so much SHAM & DRUDGERIES... their leader's name should be KIM JON ILL!
Women are NOT objects. Women are NOT things. Women are NOT your toy. Women are NOT things you can throw around and play with. Women are NOT people who are in this universe to pleasure you. Women ARE humans. Women ARE people. Women HAVE feelings. Women HAVE rights. Women HAVE choices.
@@void_serenade The problem is mass obedience rather than mass violent resistance and the use of deadly force, North Korea would be better off in anarchy.
Just ignore these people who don’t know what they’re talking about. They’re trying to convince people that these stories are lies and maybe they work for the NK government. Don’t even acknowledge their comments because they sound like idiots themselves. That’s all I will say about this because I want to educate myself about what this amazing woman is telling us. Not give the ignorant more power by focusing on their rude comments about Ms. Park telling lies. I believe you and respect what you’re doing Ms. Park. Good luck and keep up the great work.
The more you show the clips of the women performing. The more I got sad. They were obviously talented and athletic. It was truly impressive. In any other place they would have been great artists in their own right.

I'm so proud of this young lady she has overcome so many obstacles and slavery, even as we hear her tell us about things happening to human beings from her home country, I know this story was not personally about her it is about what is still happening to young girls in her home country, we hear this stuff and feel so terrible about what's going on and it hurts my heart but yet we still can't imagine just how terribly all these people are being treated and the conditions they are forced to live in. I pray that this all these type of horrific things being done to any human beings will stop and no longer be tolerated by anyone in this world. She is speaking such truth that desperately needs told even though she knows it is putting her in danger still today. May God be with her and protect her and her family from any evil doings
This is horrible. There is nothing I can say that anybody else won't on the comments. Despite this I still want to comment and say how empathetic I am feeling right now watching this video.
how can things change in NoKo if South Koreans care more about having the latest gadget/clothes/makeup/shoes than about the welfare of their brothers and sisters?
@@oh.hey.2045 but that's not true it's all China's fault. The south korean voters want to keep living their first world lives instead of fighting for the freedom of NoKo. I understand chinese politics keeps the USA at bay, but South Korea could navigate this issue way better if there was political disposition. Regarding starting a war, remember how european and british politicians were appeasing Hitler for years? Lives will be lost regardless. What is happening in NoKo is a disgrace, it's worse than death for millions of people
@@IRosamelia This has nothing to do with capitalism, there's absolutely nothing South Korea can do about the situtation in North Korea. The hard truth is that there's only way to stop this and it's to declare war as you cannot reason with these corrupt politicians and you cannot replace them either. So the question is, would the west be willing to risk a new world war to stop the injustices in North Korea?
I just finished your book and you are such an incredible and inspiring person. We are the same age and I can't even begin to imagine going through what you went through. I hope you have found peace and happiness with all that you do :D Thank you for sharing your story with us.
Imagine you live in a country and you want to flee just because you are scared you are going to be executed some day or die because you have no food. And the moment you make it, you realize you lived in a completely different world and there are so many thing you never even heard about. This must be so scary and frustrating.

‘In order to live’ is an incredible book that will open your eyes and make you think twice about taking anything for granted. I have to say, I was captivated by the story and at times, had to remind myself I wasn’t reading fiction. One of the few books that really moved me and I see things differently.
Eventually this whole system will be broken and changed. You're doing a great job, I think your videos will get a LOT of views and cause a lot of discussion world wide
@@jpsholland I used to believe in god because I wanted hope and didn’t want to accept reality as I had a really bad childhood and my mom taught me to be Christian, after my mom died I stopped believing in god because nothing ever happened to help me, religion is just to give people hope and make them forget reality.
Thank you for your hard work. You deliver the information well. I'm am so sorry for North Korean people and thier struggle. I have such empathy to give.
Yeonmi videos like this break my heart seeing how these women are treated like disposable objects and are expected to be thankful for that. That is awful. It also makes my heart sing for even the simplest of freedoms we enjoy here in the west. I just wish there was a way for us here in the west to open our homes to North Koreans that they could know freedom, empowerment and plentiful food and never have to worry about being oppressed or executed again.
@@niakum7813 Agreed. That is why we have to keep people like tRump out of public office. How he kowtowed to KJU was disgusting, giving him all that respect. Then again, he loves this type of 'pleasure squad' thing. Like he and his buddy Jeffery Epstein had and all the sexual assault he committed on young women and girls throughout the decades. He also sees NK as a place to expand his golf resort business.
Ya well our freedoms are slowly being stripped away from us day by day because of people our dumdasses elected into office.gov is no longer by the people for the people.maybe elected by us but yet our gov anymore isn't for you unless you an elite.our freedom isn't going to be free for long especially if these assholes like Biden somehow get a bill passed saying that we are no longer allowed to bear arms and have to turn them in.idk about anyone else but if that happens you can pry my guns out of my cold dead hands because ill be damned if I'm handing anything over especially when its my constitutional right.the day I give up ANY of my constitutional rights is the day im 6ft in the ground and believe me you I will fight till then to preserve them.wants to take our guns from law abiding citizens like myself but yet all the criminals will still have theres so they'll be able to take advantage of anyone they want because we won't be able to fight back.people are soo worried about another war breaking out over China and whatnot but yet were close to having another war rite here in our own backyards.idk about you or anyone else but im willing to fight and die for what I believe in.this is the time for all of us to make a stand if you want to preserve the freedoms that we still do have.otherwise well be living a sad horrible life just like to poor North Koreans are.imo if people are not willing to fight to protect our freedom or rights they should just pack up their shit and get the hell out of the US cause to me your not a real American and truly don't care about our own elected officials pissing on our constitution period.
@@richardsalinetrojr1957 I can't believe you are trying to make this video about yourself. This video is not about you and your deluded beliefs and insecurities. You do not know AT ALL what will happen when Biden is president. Every time a Democrat is elected all you far right wing people do is worry about your guns. Tell me one Democrat president in history that has successfully taken guns away from the American people. Tell me. One. Just one. And not a Democrat president who "has tried". One who has successfully taken your guns away. Can you do that? Just one. It shouldn't be that hard if it has gotten you so scared. In the meantime did you know that THERE ARE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS IN SOCIETY THAN POSSESSING FIREARMS??? Like the health, safety and well being of your fellow man? England doesn't have guns and they're doing pretty good. We here in Australia don't have guns and things are going pretty well for us too. Seriously dude, take a long and hard look at yourself. You sound like a petulant child throwing a tantrum for not having things your way. Republicans are not the sole source of truth and justice in American society. And before you think it, I am not a Democrat either. I think there is equal parts sense and stupidity in both the left and the right. Your comment has done nothing but demonstrate the stupidity in the right to which I alluded. And let me know when you come up with a Democrat president that has successfully taken guns away from the American people. Not one who has tried. That is invalid. One who has successfully done it.
Yeonmi, as you continue to explain more details about life in North Korea, you are doing a splendid job of raising awareness of the atrocities taking place over there in 2020 and beyond. Bravo for your courage and tenacity! I commend you for your outspokenness.
North Koreans see the Kims as gods and they don’t know their true selves they don’t even know what freedom is because they are taught how great the leaders and the country and how bad japan USA and South Korea is
@@ameraboukoura6091 i can assure you that not all of them think the Kim family as gods.. in communist romania there were still jokes about ceausescu and the securitate, and some people knew that in the west the life was better, and that s why the revolution began because the folk was tired of over 40 years of communism.. i think it s the same in nk but everyone keeps quiet.
One must questions why the young Kim is so obsessed with protecting his country and keeping North Koreans living like a “ hamster”. Why Vietnam have made far better progress than North Korea.

Someone once pointed out a very valid question, there seems to be so many medals pined on military officers when N.Korea hasn't been involved in a war for many years.
It's surprising that so many images of this got out. The only redeeming part of those parties is that they accelerated Kim Jong-Il's death. He drank himself to death with those.
You are so brave, and I love so much how you talk about these extremely difficult feminist topics while also rocking such cool, sexy fashion and makeup. I'm sure you must have encountered the kind of sexual shaming of women that occurs in America, despite the much higher level of personal freedom. I applaud you for still embracing your own femininity and dressing the way you want to, looking hot, because you finally have the freedom to look the way you want! Your testimony and interviews are amazing but your implicit self-expression while doing it is also so important. Thank you! Praying for freedom for all your sisters and brothers.
I wanted to get her book but I swear it keeps selling out on Amazon Edit: ya gril just checked and paperback is in stock foe prime. Merry Christmas to me
@@losthope98 lol. But honestly its SO GOOD. I stayed up nights reading it and it's one of those books where you can feel the pain and happy times like your with Yeonmi and I dont really like reading
I'm sure she would if it helped her people -- but, in fairness, the answer should depend on the context of who is making the movie about NK rather than a blanket pre-agreement, no?
Yeonmi Park is so aware and so amazing to speak her voice out! 💖💖 I really don't understand why North Korean dictators call their country and system " communism" when they reserve "qualified" services for themselves and objectify, and sexualize women. As a Vietnamese - South Korean I feel very disgusted and exasperated. I can't believe why this happens in the 21st century. Physically and emotionally, it's wrong how those old men force young girls to please them just bc the innocent ladies fit a certain toxic standard. It's just awful...
You can only destroy the regime by destroying the innocent, but brainwashed population of North Korea. The innocent citizens have been filled with an enormous level of hate for America and the west. Most would slit your throat before accepting your help.
As someone with three sisters, a mother, and many loving aunts, and many female cousins, this makes me sick to my stomach. I'm a midwestern American, we know what to do with deviants like them!
Maybe this is a good time to tell you that in my country the most intense human trafficking activity happens within miles from the American military base we have here. Underaged girls are kidnapped from their way from school to home, never to be seen again, because those brave, strong, young soldiers need relief. So when you say that you know how to deal with deviants like them, what you mean is you put them on a pedestal and praise them for their service.
No, it isn't "Rape Squads" - I understand what you're saying, but this is different - and in a way, even more horrifying. These girls go through a 'selection process' around middle school, selected by women and men for ones who will please the "Great Kim" - the ones selected undergo years of training (we don't even want to know), and then they become the personal sexual property of Kim and must do whatever he wishes under a system of punishments meant to keep them in line. These aren't "rape squads" because only Kim ever has sex with them - they are his property. I imagine the penalty for anyone not given permission to have sex with one of them is at least the loss of one family jewel - and may be more severe. It's sad, it's horrifying, it's legal, it's State-Sanctioned, and that's what makes it different - and in some ways even more terrifying than rape at the hands of a group of soldiers: this is a lifetime of sex slavery to one man, until you get a little old, slip up and displease him, or he simply tires of you. After they are used up - they are used for cleaning, labor, whatever degrading job there is to do. The exact horror of it, is that it ISN'T "Rape Squads" - it's legalized Sex Slavery, simply accepted as part of N. Korean life.
@@yoohyeonforever7067 How? He/she is pointing out how it works and how horrible it is. Just because he said it's not "rape" doesn't mean he/she is defending. Educate yourself.
Your testimony is heart-rending. I would like to help the unfortunate women of North Korea. I highly admire the stioc courage with which your women are putting up with.

I just started watching the handmaids tale with my boyfriend before we discovered Yeonmi, and he literally said “this is like the North Korea for women”
Was introduced to the site just three days ago. The knowledge gained has years of value. My greatest thanks, appreciation, gratefulness, and love to you for educating me.

You are amazing for your strength and sharing your story. Especially seeing as you still receive death threats. As a woman I’m so bothered by thoughts of how it must’ve felt to become the person you are today. I can’t believe how strong you are! I admire you so much!!!
The fact that people have to be subjected to this and everything the Kims have done... I hope that people realize how bad it is and overthrow those monsters.
Your courage is amazing. I was telling a friend recently about a young woman who stood against the military junta in Chile "For me these people are shining beacons of hope in this world". With total respect

It makes me shudder to even imagine being in a place where you could suddenly be pulled aside at school, told you're going away from your family and will never see them again, and then being taken to a place where you're pretty much told your body isn't yours any more.
"Obey, and your family will live. Disobey, and they will spend the rest of their (short) lives in prison labor camps - or be shot in front of you - and you will still serve as a slave to Kim."
The men work hard, have honorable family, serve their country. They deserve to be pleasured and it is a great honor to be the girl that gives them pleasure
I have been watching many of your videos over the last few weeks, I don’t comment on RUclips much but I’d really like to leave you a comment. You are incredibly brave, both for escaping North Korea knowing the possible repercussions, and you are also very brave for speaking out to people like us about the reality inside there. Everything you say makes me gasp, it’s shocking that such things still happen is some parts of our world, and it makes me really really appreciate what I have ... I used to feel downtrodden for being disabled and having low income, now I realise I receive government help and my housing is payed for, I have food in the cupboards albeit basic food, and my home is warm and heated, I have clothes albeit not the best clothes, and acess to healthcare. I’m exceptionally blessed, I have life and freedom. On the same subject, the things that particularly shocked me were when you mentioned finding grass and leaves on the mountains to survive, this is absurdly crazy to me. The forced abortions, the police force and the healthcare or lack of. When you had your appendix removed without being put to sleep, hanging old drink bottles to use for IV drips and the nurses using the same needle and syringe for every patient. The forced abortions of the pleasure squad, the pleasure squad itself. Thank you for sharing these truths. You are very pretty and have a good kind heart, and thank you again. I pray for your continued safety, and the safety of your family. I pray for all victims and citizens of North Korea, I pray for all oppressed people in this world.
How long has she had a page? I love her story and the facts that she's really beautiful but insanely strong to have survived what she's gone through. Makes you grateful for where you live.
but are those people forced? if they escape and go to the police they can be helped. I know the police is USA have caught many human traffickers in Texas, Ohio etc the sad thing is that in North Korea no one will help those girls and they can't go to the police.
It breaks my heart to see an entire nation so oppressed. The lack of freedom and the subjective abuse of women by the elite of the country is deplorable. The Lord will break that ruler out of hand and this will not be tolerated in the world to come. They are getting by with it for now but not much longer. ✝
I am reading your book and I love it so much .Thank you for sharing your story with us . Love you ,your book and this channel !Your big supporter from Iran ❤❤❤
I thank you for devoting your channel to bring awareness to the horrors happening in North Korea, I shudder to think how many victims there are suffering in silence. There are many victims in this world, and North Korea is no different where people who need their voices heard are being restricted.
Park Yeonmi, thank you for your video's. I want to cry hearing of all the horrible things you've had to overcome and about the life you lived in N. Korea. No humans should be treated that way. Then I want to cry with joy that you escaped! You are a strong, beautiful, caring and personable woman and I hope that America provides you with every opportunity in life. Keep up the good work.
I've read a couple of books by N Koreans who've escaped, leaving their families behind. Very hard to read - very emotional. NK is far worse than anything your western mind can imagine. Country is run by sadistic evil barbarians.
@@asthamehta388 Sure. Happy to do that: -- "A Thousand Miles to Freedom" by Eunsun Kim -- "The Girl With Seven Names" by Hyeonseo Lee -- "In Order To Live" by Yeonmi Park (who did the video above. She has other videos too on her RUclips channel.) I think there's more if them, but these were very informative. I think they are all available in printed and ebook form.
"NK is far worse than anything your western mind can imagine..." You vastly underestimate the knowledge that "Western minds" have, and how much we know about the world's condition. Do you think we don't understand the looks of horror, helplessness, despair, and terror on the faces of those young women in the "Satisfying" squads? Do you think "Westerners" are strangers to horror, hopelessness, terror, and have never suffered as they were tortured as Prisoners of war, and many gone through poverty and hunger? Our soldiers liberated prisoners at Auschwitz, Birkenau, and many other German Concentration camps during WWII. They died by their thousands defending France - in trenches filled with poison gas. Do you think the things they saw and experienced had no effect on them, as they held these lice-ridden, shriveled human beings, as they died (when they liberated the Concentration Camps)? My Uncle came home after that war, and was so horrified by what he had seen, and been through, that he committed suicide. Thousands and thousands of "Westerners" were brought by Dutch Slave ships from Africa, originally, , and sold to American plantations - where they were bred, like animals. They were hung by the neck until dead for tiny infractions - or for amusement. Tens of thousands of Americans lined up - North and South - the North to end this slavery, the South to break away from the North and keep their slaves. Tens of thousands of men on both sides were crushed by cannon-balls, rolling through their ranks and tearing and crushing whole bodies or just legs as they rolled - propelled by the "Easterner" invention of gunpowder, but used for something far more lethal than the Easterners who used it as "range signals" - Westerners used it to propel huge rolling balls of steel and lead, and left nearly an entire generation mutilated, legless, burned, blind.... all to end the horror of slavery - of owning other human beings - and you think we cannot understand this? Oh, believe me, brother, there are no depths of horror perpetrated upon one group of human beings by another - or for the pleasure of one man, at the expense of many, that we understand quite well. Believe me, brother, when I tell you that throughout history, the horrors visited upon others for the pleasure of one - or many - is no more a stranger to "Westerners" than it is to "Easterners." This is NOT the land you think it is, and we are NOT the people you think we are. It isn't "Westerners" or "Easterners" who understand, and have both victimized others, and been the victims of, the cruelty that passes all human understanding - It is the entire human race, throughout its long, horrifying, cruel, and bloody history - and if we (both "Easterners" and "Westerners") can't find a way to stop it, the horror will consume us all. Never imagine or believe that "Westerners" do not understand the horrors of slavery, lynchings, the public sale of human beings, dying by the thousands like cockroaches twitching in the mud of Trenches, and the horrifying cruelty of the German "Westerners" who simply rolled over these twitching bodies by tanks and Troop transport trucks until they became a part of the mud.
You know, every single day I wait to see you upload a video to make sure you are alive and ok. What you do is one of the bravest things I have ever seen and definitely commands respect.
The comparison to Handmaids Tale, helps really understand the mind and power control they have over every aspect of the average person life but also the moral hypocrisy. Thank you for sharing. All the best to you
Just come across your great work. Too sit here as a human male in the 21st century and as a father with a daughter, makes me want to ask when will we truly ever be equals and live in harmony. Male attitudes to females starts with their fathers. Respect and kindness demonstrated at every level is essential. Without this future generations in all countries will still not move forward. Good luck with your campaign and enlightening.

You can only destroy the regime by destroying the innocent, but brainwashed population of North Korea. The innocent citizens have been filled with an enormous level of hate for America and the west. Most would slit your throat before accepting your help.

Revolting.
Maybe this is a good time to tell you that in my country the most intense human trafficking activity happens within miles from the American military base we have here. Underaged girls are kidnapped from their way from school to home, never to be seen again, because those brave, strong, young soldiers need relief.
So when you say that you know how to deal with deviants like them, what you mean is you put them on a pedestal and praise them for their service.
Let's call it what it is. Rape squads! This is so sad!
No, it isn't "Rape Squads" - I understand what you're saying, but this is different - and in a way, even more horrifying. These girls go through a 'selection process' around middle school, selected by women and men for ones who will please the "Great Kim" - the ones selected undergo years of training (we don't even want to know), and then they become the personal sexual property of Kim and must do whatever he wishes under a system of punishments meant to keep them in line. These aren't "rape squads" because only Kim ever has sex with them - they are his property. I imagine the penalty for anyone not given permission to have sex with one of them is at least the loss of one family jewel - and may be more severe. It's sad, it's horrifying, it's legal, it's State-Sanctioned, and that's what makes it different - and in some ways even more terrifying than rape at the hands of a group of soldiers: this is a lifetime of sex slavery to one man, until you get a little old, slip up and displease him, or he simply tires of you. After they are used up - they are used for cleaning, labor, whatever degrading job there is to do. The exact horror of it, is that it ISN'T "Rape Squads" - it's legalized Sex Slavery, simply accepted as part of N. Korean life.

The picture of Kim Jong ill in his underwear make me laugh
What a pig he is.
it’s photoshop bruh
@@stacieberries Um no
@@stacieberries Kim Jong your dad 😂😂😂
He will have no need for clothes, as he burns in the fiery pits,
of hell for all eternity...for his dammed soul...May he rot forever in the place of the evil and wicked, as Satan is his god!
It makes me shudder to even imagine being in a place where you could suddenly be pulled aside at school, told you're going away from your family and will never see them again, and then being taken to a place where you're pretty much told your body isn't yours any more.
This poor girl’s don’t have to choice. Just obey, to this psychopaths
NK is just one big prison with Kim being the warden and absolute master. And he had nukes and goon squads to protect him from any opposition.
The world is ruled by psychopaths
They are the king .
"Obey, and your family will live. Disobey, and they will spend the rest of their (short) lives in prison labor camps - or be shot in front of you - and you will still serve as a slave to Kim."
The men work hard, have honorable family, serve their country. They deserve to be pleasured and it is a great honor to be the girl that gives them pleasure
Lord, I know you’re there at your people, please protect the oppressed citizens of North Korea🙏.
I have been watching many of your videos over the last few weeks, I don’t comment on RUclips much but I’d really like to leave you a comment. You are incredibly brave, both for escaping North Korea knowing the possible repercussions, and you are also very brave for speaking out to people like us about the reality inside there. Everything you say makes me gasp, it’s shocking that such things still happen is some parts of our world, and it makes me really really appreciate what I have ... I used to feel downtrodden for being disabled and having low income, now I realise I receive government help and my housing is payed for, I have food in the cupboards albeit basic food, and my home is warm and heated, I have clothes albeit not the best clothes, and acess to healthcare. I’m exceptionally blessed, I have life and freedom.
On the same subject, the things that particularly shocked me were when you mentioned finding grass and leaves on the mountains to survive, this is absurdly crazy to me. The forced abortions, the police force and the healthcare or lack of. When you had your appendix removed without being put to sleep, hanging old drink bottles to use for IV drips and the nurses using the same needle and syringe for every patient. The forced abortions of the pleasure squad, the pleasure squad itself. Thank you for sharing these truths. You are very pretty and have a good kind heart, and thank you again. I pray for your continued safety, and the safety of your family. I pray for all victims and citizens of North Korea, I pray for all oppressed people in this world.
Hello pretty lady how are you doing I hope you good 🌹?
Hello please can i really know more about this 💜💜❤️💜
@@liwbyung8538 if you watch the video, or any of the videos on Yumni Park’s channel, you can find all the information you need there, good luck. 😊👍
@@jojo1234athanks, my lovely friend you are doing nice to meet you 💚💚❤️💜💜
okay dear thanks please here's my WhatsApp number just add me +1248144736075💚❤️💜❤️
Very brave young lady that's sharing this truth to the world 💖
How long has she had a page? I love her story and the facts that she's really beautiful but insanely strong to have survived what she's gone through. Makes you grateful for where you live.
If you click on her channel it tells you when her first upload was. You can also google her name.
her oldest video seems to be from 3 years ago, though her account was made 7 years ago (based on what it shows when you click on the channel)
Why do all those generals have so many medals when they’ve never seen a war. We laugh at these people but what they do to their people is horrific
The generals got those metals for underaged female human trafficking.
lets be real, a large majority of mega rich people have a pleasure squad as well...
.....with children in them.
Absolutely. And living in the ‘free world’ doesn’t mean they are free to leave if they wanted to.. many are trafficked or blackmailed in someway.
It's because a strong law doesn't exist .
@@mitraavesta7548 psychopaths don't care about the law.
but are those people forced? if they escape and go to the police they can be helped. I know the police is USA have caught many human traffickers in Texas, Ohio etc the sad thing is that in North Korea no one will help those girls and they can't go to the police.
It breaks my heart to see an entire nation so oppressed. The lack of freedom and the subjective abuse of women by the elite of the country is deplorable. The Lord will break that ruler out of hand and this will not be tolerated in the world to come. They are getting by with it for now but not much longer. ✝
It reminds us of Jeffrey Epstein, his girlfriend Miss Maxwell and all their noble guests.
Bill Gates, Bill Clinton and many others.
I am reading your book and I love it so much .Thank you for sharing your story with us . Love you ,your book and this channel !Your big supporter from Iran ❤❤❤
May you always have the strength to shine your light Yeonmi.
So much courage..kudos to you Yeonmi Park...God is blessing you to be the light in this dark world...❤
I thank you for devoting your channel to bring awareness to the horrors happening in North Korea, I shudder to think how many victims there are suffering in silence. There are many victims in this world, and North Korea is no different where people who need their voices heard are being restricted.
Park Yeonmi, thank you for your video's. I want to cry hearing of all the horrible things you've had to overcome and about the life you lived in N. Korea. No humans should be treated that way. Then I want to cry with joy that you escaped! You are a strong, beautiful, caring and personable woman and I hope that America provides you with every opportunity in life. Keep up the good work.
I've read a couple of books by N Koreans who've escaped, leaving their families behind. Very hard to read - very emotional. NK is far worse than anything your western mind can imagine. Country is run by sadistic evil barbarians.
Can name them or give their links in reply!!
@@asthamehta388 Sure. Happy to do that:
-- "A Thousand Miles to Freedom" by Eunsun Kim
-- "The Girl With Seven Names" by Hyeonseo Lee
-- "In Order To Live" by Yeonmi Park (who did the video above. She has other videos too on her RUclips channel.)
I think there's more if them, but these were very informative. I think they are all available in printed and ebook form.
@@bereabeard thank you!!!!!!💜
The world is run by people like this. The west included.
"NK is far worse than anything your western mind can imagine..."
You vastly underestimate the knowledge that "Western minds" have, and how much we know about the world's condition. Do you think we don't understand the looks of horror, helplessness, despair, and terror on the faces of those young women in the "Satisfying" squads? Do you think "Westerners" are strangers to horror, hopelessness, terror, and have never suffered as they were tortured as Prisoners of war, and many gone through poverty and hunger? Our soldiers liberated prisoners at Auschwitz, Birkenau, and many other German Concentration camps during WWII. They died by their thousands defending France - in trenches filled with poison gas. Do you think the things they saw and experienced had no effect on them, as they held these lice-ridden, shriveled human beings, as they died (when they liberated the Concentration Camps)? My Uncle came home after that war, and was so horrified by what he had seen, and been through, that he committed suicide.
Thousands and thousands of "Westerners" were brought by Dutch Slave ships from Africa, originally, , and sold to American plantations - where they were bred, like animals. They were hung by the neck until dead for tiny infractions - or for amusement. Tens of thousands of Americans lined up - North and South - the North to end this slavery, the South to break away from the North and keep their slaves. Tens of thousands of men on both sides were crushed by cannon-balls, rolling through their ranks and tearing and crushing whole bodies or just legs as they rolled - propelled by the "Easterner" invention of gunpowder, but used for something far more lethal than the Easterners who used it as "range signals" - Westerners used it to propel huge rolling balls of steel and lead, and left nearly an entire generation mutilated, legless, burned, blind.... all to end the horror of slavery - of owning other human beings - and you think we cannot understand this?
Oh, believe me, brother, there are no depths of horror perpetrated upon one group of human beings by another - or for the pleasure of one man, at the expense of many, that we understand quite well.
Believe me, brother, when I tell you that throughout history, the horrors visited upon others for the pleasure of one - or many - is no more a stranger to "Westerners" than it is to "Easterners." This is NOT the land you think it is, and we are NOT the people you think we are. It isn't "Westerners" or "Easterners" who understand, and have both victimized others, and been the victims of, the cruelty that passes all human understanding - It is the entire human race, throughout its long, horrifying, cruel, and bloody history - and if we (both "Easterners" and "Westerners") can't find a way to stop it, the horror will consume us all.
Never imagine or believe that "Westerners" do not understand the horrors of slavery, lynchings, the public sale of human beings, dying by the thousands like cockroaches twitching in the mud of Trenches, and the horrifying cruelty of the German "Westerners" who simply rolled over these twitching bodies by tanks and Troop transport trucks until they became a part of the mud.
the image shown at 3:13 is clearly badly photoshop'd. How can you show us fake images? How can i trust anything else you show or say?
If you logged into the internet, you kinda did _yourself_ in on trying to find trustworthy information.
It's not a secret anymore thanks to voices like yours. 👍👍👍
And they sang South Korean songs!!!
This makes me si k to my stomach. Only a demon spawn can do this because they have no conscience. So sad.
Mon coeur brisse pour ces filles et femmes innocents, victimes de saduction d'un home maliceux!😢😢😢
You know, every single day I wait to see you upload a video to make sure you are alive and ok. What you do is one of the bravest things I have ever seen and definitely commands respect.
Let us pray for these women that are being sexualized, let's pray for them and their familys. 🌻
Your prayers do NOTHING.
Yes Prayer for them will release
I am praying to Sai Baba for a miracle
@@chrisgraham2904 Be quiet
@@captainswan3079 If people are quiet, or use useless gestures of prayer, nothing will change.
The comparison to Handmaids Tale, helps really understand the mind and power control they have over every aspect of the average person life but also the moral hypocrisy. Thank you for sharing. All the best to you
Just come across your great work. Too sit here as a human male in the 21st century and as a father with a daughter, makes me want to ask when will we truly ever be equals and live in harmony. Male attitudes to females starts with their fathers. Respect and kindness demonstrated at every level is essential. Without this future generations in all countries will still not move forward. Good luck with your campaign and enlightening.
Mike,it's so refreshing to be reminded that there are a lot of true gentlemen out there
Amazing video. I’ve been watching your Chanel for a bit now, and I think that you are an amazing woman, and I may buy your book soon. Your compassion and empathy is amazing, and you have an iron will.
The Kim hypocrit mafia needs to be taken out. Look out Kim's we're coming one of these days.
he has the Chinese communist party support. He is a puppet of China. And China will not allow him to be toppled unless there is some big benefit for the CCP.
@@amvora777 Wow, I didn’t knew my country supported him
@@chenmae9747 Its the only way they can survive
If you starting a group call me too im ready to sacrifice to free north korea
@@amvora777 china's economy is heavily dependent in westerners buying its goods. Consumer strike? #freenorthkorea
I feel so much empathy for the ppl living in North Corea. I can only imagine the fear, the immense stress, the inner and physical pain they go through every day.
I hope that there will be a stop to this kind of tyran with time and evolution.

so eye opening. thanks for sharing the truth.
