      Additionally most are at least in a way aware of that they need communism for themselves in order to have a nice life which they are not able to provide for them in normal societies.

    Yeonmi your laughter is very contagious. Yuna, Yeonmi, and Eunhee are beautiful gems from the North. We all love the beautiful escapees from North Korea :) My life journey started in Thailand 1981 after my parents escaping the 'Red' Laos goverment. They hunted down everyone who supported America and General Vang Pao after The Secret War of Vietnam War. My dad was in the special forces supporting America and working under General Vang Pao. My dad and mom escaped Laos through the Mekong River and to Thailand. They lived in the refugee camp where I was born. Anyways my family of five of us got sponsored by my mom's sister to America in 1988. Coming to America is a true culture shock. True freedom requires blood and sacrifices.

Yeonmi does not deny there were mischaracterizations and such.. considering the trauma she went thru as a child and the language differences it's understandable. She also wrote a book explaining those mischaracterizations. So take your pro communism pro kim jong un bullshit elsewhere

    Both you ladies are amazing people - certainly an inspiration to anyone who listens to you. Yeonmi many in the new generation in America don’t have the appreciation that you possess. It’s because life came to easy for them. So your story not only helps us understand in depth why the North Korean people need to be free, but it also helps the younger generations in the USA understand how fortunate they are to live in this beautiful country.
    I’m not looking for extreme wealth, nor am I looking to find a mate as I have been happily married for 42 years, and I’d marry the same woman again if I had to do it all over again. I see the prudence, virtue, kindness, intelligence, and personal drive within you. I see your determination to make your life better along with everyone else that lives in your country. You also make anyone’s life better that you come in contact with just by listening to your story, and that is why I view your podcasts. I wish some way that I could help you with your position to free the people of North Korea. At this point all I can do is vote accordingly, and support your podcasts. My best to you both......you are both such sweet determined ladies. America loves you! If you have any negative comments, those are from the lowest of low in this country. I support your positive outlook. Thank you! Paul Petrulis USA

So every little thing in life that does not go their way, they make themselves to be victims. They ought to be ashamed. The way you lived, and what you had to do to be free is an example for us all. I respect you very much because you have a real good reason to love your freedom. That is how Americans used to be. We knew the cost for that freedom was shed in American blood. And my respects also to the young lady that you interviewed. I wish her the very best, and pray that she has a wonderful and prosperous life of freedom.

Eunhee tells about the beauty if the city of Wonsan (around 59:36) (a pretty picture of Pyongyang is also shown). On the other hand, Eunhee tells that she had to endure a stressful life in South Korea for a long period, with lack of sleep and nutrition, and that she got tuberculosis as a result (around 49:49).

    Both of you are incredibly inspiring! You were so brave to escape and braver still to continue to fight to bring awareness about North Korea and help someday free your fellow countrymen. Thank you for your ongoing fight against oppression.

    Eunhee, talking about height in centimeters and not knowing conversion of height in feet/inches:
    "I don't know, sometimes I don't understand why America"
    Girl... we Americans don't why understand either.

      same for me coming from Europe , living in Canada is still hard to do the conversion, everything is different I always have to check 😊

      😂 when American customers patronise my workplace, they ask me the conversion from cm to inches too 😂

    You are both very inspiring. The power of the human spirit is really unimaginable. Thank you for sharing your experiences. It really put things into perspective and makes you appreciate the simple things in life. I cannot imagine going through what you two have been through yet stay strong and unbroken. You deserve to be applauded for coming out of all these as successful and inspiring young women. Keep doing what you’re doing. I’m sure that one day, North Koreans left behind will be free as well and a lot of it will be because of people like you who paved the way. Well done!👏👏👏👏
