Is there any doubt that without "an immaculate" curriculum for re-education, being a soldier is being a dark age, married-to-a-timeshare refugee who is in the middle of a political demonstration and making that stupid face (you know the face)?
Even the devil knew who Jesus was and feared him! What an irony that the regime actually knows the power of true light and fears it. Darkness can never overcome light. This interview was such an encouragement, thank you Yeonmi! Let us keep praying for NK unceasingly 🙏🕊
This is incredible. A missionary serving time like that in a labor camp, that's so awful. For anyone. Everyone. That's someone I'd like to meet as well. :)
He hit the nail on the head...the NK regime is more afraid of religion than any military threat. And there is no military threat unless NK attacks someone...and the regime has it so good they won't do anything to upset the applecart. This guy looks great for his age; he must be blessed!
The fact that he survived to testify is a miracle in itself! Thank you God and thank you both for standing up against such evil! God bless you both and North Korea.
Thank you Yeonmi. I LOVE you. You are so fucking brave and strong. You are a true inspiration. I don't know why you're not even more famous. You are loved!!!!!!!!
Kenneth Bae! I've wondered how this gentleman has been doing. Great interview, Yeomni! As much as I like what you have to say, today I give you even more credit for your ability to listen & let Mr. Bae share his story. Many hosts talk over their guests or try to force them to wrap up. Not you, you let your guest have the stage. Thanks for continously producing genuine, heartfelt content. ♡♡
Thank you Miss Park for this interview. My family sometimes have a prayer meeting and we to pray for the North Koreans. The English ministry. Pray for the North Koreans. Not only that but pray for all the sufferings and tribulations that goes on in this world. Thank you Miss Park for showing this interview. God Bless.
This is a lesson about why it is bad to imitate a system that is the biggest proven failure in history. The trashy geeks on CNN, College campuses and Hollywood may be stupid, evil and neurotic, but they don't have nukes. Yet.... Spread this message and fight for what is right here at home!
@@parrotraiser6541 Kim hasn't even proven he has the nukes to make it to any enemy land, except Japan. He might have a couple missiles, but he'd have to think twice when he has HUNDREDS pointed back at him.
@@macD723 As they used to say, it only takes one nuclear weapon to ruin your whole day. One would probably flatten Pyongyang, and the rest of the country's as derelict as it can get anyway. In addition to the nuclear weapons, all of Seoul is vulnerably to artillery that the DPRK has buried in a mountain just across the border.
RESPECT, SIR. yes, it was largely the contemplating of north Korea and china's treatment of Christians that called me to reassess going back to Christianity. I tell people that in these countries there are underground congregations that feel so strongly about what they have experienced with Jesus that it has moved them to risk their lives and sometimes the next generation also to practice this together. I ask, if Jesus is some myth, story, whatever, do you really think anyone would risk torture, execution, ect if there wasn't a very real phenomenon being experienced. you sir, have been an inspiration for me even though I was not aware of your existence.
Jesus is amazing. God has answered SO many of my prayers directly for myself and my family and friends. I believe in miracles because I’m a miracle myself :)
Countless have suffered and died for thousands of religions before and after Christianity. Are they all correct?? Human being have even suffered for cult leaders. Our brains are wired to succumb to anything we perceive as a higher authority
Wow. Thank you for this Yeonmi What a warrior. He truly knows the promise and provisions of God🙏🏽 I despise that he had to experience this, however He is a true missionary
What a great man. He has courage. Those people really needed someone like him. He gave hope to people without hope. I bet when he got home after his captivity he went to an ALL YOU CAN EAT buffet.
I ended up buying a nice hard cover of his book, reading it and then donating it to my community in a "take a book, leave a book" setup that my neighbor had put up.
Just incredible to hear his story of imprisonment and faith. What a powerful and moving story. His story shows the power of faith and prayer. Very touching and moving video. Loved it.
This is fascinating and hearing this from a devoted Christian is interesting, the fact that God played such a huge roll in his coping leaves me wondering how someone who has no religious beliefs would cope.
I don't believe in God or heaven. That makes me more determined to live, in my opinion. Once I'm dead I'm gone so I will fight as hard as I can to avoid the void. If I believed in heaven, why wouldn't I be keen to go there? Makes no sense to me.
This guy is a lot stronger than I could have ever been. Wow. Can’t help but crack up a bit of the thought of Jesus and Kim Jong Un’s names being interchangeable in NK worship songs.
@bina nocht ppl go through suffering in life. We all do. To not endure suffering is to not be human. Don’t belittle or mock my God. He has literally saved my life so many times.
@bina nocht I’m not. I’m just making a point that everyone goes to their hard trials and tribulations. How? We don’t know. I have my own suffering daily. Not it’s not prison, but suffering is suffering.
@@Komerican10 you’re right I don’t understand how an all knowing and all powerful eternal being would make that decision (and continue to make it throughout the last 10s of thousands of years across all civilisations). I mean I hope that if you had the ability to control the suffering of innocent people and innocent children that you’d choose for them to not suffer??? It would be pure evil if you did otherwise yer
Thank you for your channel and spreading awareness. I am reminded of the quote "knowledge is power" which given the circumstances is a bit cringey.

You are so amazing for taking the time and efforts to do this for everyone. You are helping to build the foundation on which future change can occur. Without your support (and others who are supporting the cause) there would be no change. You are a part of the history of change. : ) You are truly inspiring and remind me that there are genuine, loving people in this world who assist bc they care about other people that they don't even know. It takes a special person with much wisdom and perspective to be so selfless. Stay strong and sweet, : ) Best, Lily (PS, many apologies if any part of my text is off--I am incredibly tired and used up the last of my brain trying to write this, so no proofreading to ensure my writing is clear and corrected of my many typos as my dingos are too fat for the phone keyboard--at least that's what the phone messaged to me. : ) All the best. : )
The energy and time used to brain wash people is alarming and amazing! Why doesn't he just spread love and do the right thing for his country? People will be more greatful to him this way!!
Such a powerful testimony! "I am surprised to know that President Obama knows my name. But what's more important is that God the Father knows my name."
Just a comment to remember my friend the late Col. Chuck Maultsby who spent 22 months as a POW after getting shot down in the Korean war. A great American!
Amazing how he got letters, visitors, a defender, and he got out of prison. All the other stories I have heard about N. K. prisons are very different tragic stories. Seems like he is getting to know all the N.K. people who have escaped. Odd too how the N.K. officials thought it was great to support reunification of the Koreas... I thought the N.K. elites had no interest in that at all. there are stories too of prisoners who make a deal with the officials, and get out.
"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied. Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account."
Praise the lord what a powerful testimony God has showed great mercy towards this man & he is the same God that can show mercy to the North Korean people and the rest of the world God bless you
Upon arriving in Pyongyang with two medical staff on a special U.S. Air Force plane on June 12, 2017, Special Representative Joseph Yoon left for the U.S. with Auto Warmbier after hours of negotiations. It was later revealed that North Korea demanded $2 million (KRW 2.3 billion) from the U.S. as a condition for Warmbier's release, and that Ambassador Joseph Yoon accepted North Korea's request with President Trump's permission. Controversy has also arisen in the United States because President Trump pledged not to pay for the hostage no matter what. Later, it turned out that this was Warmbier's medical expenses. Warmbier returned to the U.S. on the 13th with envoy Joseph Yoon and medical staff, and was found to be in fact a vegetative state, shocking the world. When asked by a U.S. doctor who first arrived in North Korea, North Korean medical staff claimed that Warmbier fell into "Botulinus Addiction," a food poisoning, or overdosed on tranquilizers, was a problem. Don't go to North Korea.

If this doesn’t convince the free world to take major action, then I don’t know what will
It's rather difficult to take major (or any) action against unscrupulous sadists with nuclear weapons. It could be a serious health hazard.

It’s surprising to me that he would ever be released. You would think they’d not want you to talk about the conditions in their camps to the world.
Very few people sentenced to North Korean labor camps with hope of release make it out of their sentence alive.
Much respect!
