Thank you everyone for your heartfelt support đź’•
-
No families, no fathers, no mothers, no individuals. Sounds familiar
-
This woman is amazingly fluent and articulate in the English language.
-
What pains me the most is how she brought up “hunger” as the primary reason to leave her homeland. I can’t imagine, even in a parallel universe, having to leave your country out of something that no one should ever experience. God bless this woman and the innocent folks of North Korea
-
This girl is amazing can't even imagine how horrible her life was and still she managed to escape
-
Imagine being in such a horrible place that China is a level up
-
i remember watching her interviews 12 years ago and when she explained her story then she couldn’t even get thru it without crying, and now she can laugh and joke at her trauma, even how painful it is, she’s so much stronger now and looks at her life from many angles, so positive
-
"It was very painful to be free" - My God how spoiled are we in the West? This young woman went through absolute HELL, and would have gone back to it if she didn't know she would starve. This story is unreal. I'm so glad she was able to make it out.
-
Tim needs to repost this daily until everyone hears her story.
-
"It's painful to be free" is one of the wildest thing I've heard this year.
-
As a Cuban born and raised on the island, I understand her. I like listening to what happens in Cuba. communism is horrible.
-
She's absolutely right, hunger is the worst pain in the world, and if you're constantly hungry, you don't care, or can't focus on anything else but finding a meal.
-
She is describing how they teach CRT here in America.
-
Possibly one of the most eye opening accounts of North Korea I've ever heard. It's like listening to an alien who has arrived here from another planet.
-
Every school should be required to show this video to all students! Americans have no idea how good we have it!
-
So glad you survived all you went through, Yeonmi. You are now a Messenger of Hope for all those that are suffering under evil. May you continue to prosper!
-
When she said freedom is responsiblity, that really hit home.
-
The most chilling part for me was when she said "there is no concept of love in North Korea"
-
Being Australian it's hard to fathom that anyone should have to live under these circumstances. Your ability to tell your story should make all of use realize how lucky we are.
-
Thank you Yeonmi. Very grateful for you sharing your life experiences with the rest of us. To see and hear you explain these parts of your life in such a clear and concise manner makes it unlike almost anything else I have ever heard of taking place on earth. May your future be as bright as can be.
