In this episode of "Minutes With" we sat down with Jihyun, an incredibly brave woman who escaped North Korea twice.

Jihyun takes us through what life was really like in North Korea, how she manages to escape twice, and how he ended up being sold into sex slavery in China. Jihyun is one of the most remarkable people we have ever had on the show. We asked Jihyun what she would like to promote in the top comment and she said she only wanted to say the following: "North Korean dictators do not want the light to enter the North Koreans, but I accuse the North Korean regime of the cruel acts they have committed by the North Korean regime for the freedom of the North Korean people and the liberation of slaves."

    Just found out she’s stood out to be elected in her local area, she won 2018 chairman’s AWA award, humans right activist and Amnesty brave award!
  • @shivvWhore
    Wow when the HUMAN TRAFFICKER has more empathy than the government of an entire country you know something is messed up.
  • @emilyjane9901
    She survived so much... She survived North Korea twice She survived Starvation She survived North Korean prison She survived human trafficking She survived a sever leg infection She survived losing her child for awhile She survived abuse She survived childbirth all alone She is a literal warrior & I don't know many people that are stronger than her. She deserves the utmost respect. My heart breaks for those trapped in North Korea.
  • "people still speak about the Holocaust in World War 2, but it's still happening in North Korean concentration camps..." That part really hit me hard. God bless this woman and her family
  • @mira2492
    It's incredible how that injured leg and her knowledge of speaking Chinese would both save her trafficker's life and also gave her the chance of freedom by her trafficker who was thankful
  • @scrumpymaniac
    I feel like her level of badassery cannot be expressed in human words.
  • @junkejinx
    I burst into tears when she mentioned how her father sacrificed himself and how she had only a bowl of rice and a rag to leave him. We take so much for granted while this woman had to flee her home country and her beloved father to escape starvation. I can not imagine the emotional pain she went through.
  • I'm so glad this woman and her child made it here to the UK, I wish her and her family a long and happy life here.
  • She is aware of children's psychology, took very tough decisions and speaks at least 3 languages and managed to cross several countries and brokers. This woman is simply brilliant!
  • @mayte_j4008
    "I gave birth to my child, I was happy because he was my family". Im moved.
  • @sallyelliott121
    As a free person, I listen to this woman's life, and think...WHY???Why is this happening, and why isn't the free world fighting for these people??? It's so sad, and tragic, and unreal! She is brave and I pray for her heart to heal and to be reunited with her sone some day.

    I just can't hold my tears, when she said she had to leave her dad in north korea with a bowl of rice and can't escape with her one and only brother. She even saw her lovely uncle die in front of her. What kind of blessing life we have.
  • @Lootenant
    For me, the most touching moment was when the broker let her go because she saved his life by lying to the driver
  • @rukas2961
    Soo basically ive won a lottery by living in warm house with food, clothes, and internet. Makes me appreciate what i have.
  • @charl_lee
    “That is not history, that is real life” hit me hard
  • I am so pleased she and her son are here and safe and happy in the UK
  • @xbrandnewx
    Puts what I call having a bad day into perspective
  • Considering that she's North Korean, she actually uses English as her third language very well.
  • @Gochuzhe
    when she said that she gave birth while she was sad and suicidal but her child made her happy because now she finally has a family I 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
  • @henrykim3539
    Not to long after I watched this video I was talking about this with my father. I am Korean and I found out through my dad that my great uncle would help people escape from North Korea. The way that his uncle spoke Korean is very similar to how people in North Korean speak so it helped him blend in and he has helped many people to escape and it just makes me so happy that I’m related to such a amazing man.
