I have a friend from North Korea and her story is so similar to these, i also had asked her "what did you know about the other countries/ the outside world?" And she kinda laughed and said " imagine attack on titan, we only know what we've seen, outside of that, nothing" she's a true sweetheart and to lighten the mood, added a bit of a joke of her favourite anime.

I went to school with a guy who defected from N. Korea, he said he was thankful to be able to live in America and he was surprised by how different things were, but that his mom was still terrified and she had changed every part of her identity even getting plastic surgery to change her appearance. She wouldn’t go out in public ever and she refused to sign anything for her son, I can only imagine the level of fear she had that she would get caught despite being safe

We cannot forget the fact that Anthony is one of the most understanding and non-judgemental people of all time.

My family doctor is in his 70s. He was born in North Korea and his family escaped when he was a baby. His parents carried him into South Korea after they walked for days, slept in buildings that were half standing and bribed guards with everything they had. To have him go through what he did and make it all the way to America after graduating medical school makes me so proud to know him. I’m 40 and he’s been my dr since I was 5. The stories he’s shared.. I just have so much respect for the people featured. So brave.

As a mother, I can’t imagine the devastation of the mother who had to contemplating take her own kids life to save them from torture if caught. What an impossible situation to be in.

I'm extremely proud of Lucy and Cherie. I hope they enjoy their well earned and deserved freedom, and their hamburgers

These women are so brave for telling their stories. I am just stunned at what they had to go through and what the citizens of North Korea have to go through.

I really wish we could help these people take their country back, it’s awful seeing them suffer so much.

The scariest fact, is that if you hear more of the survivors stories, these two girls had better lives than other people. They were from the higher class and probably from the cities, since they don’t talk about public executions or seeing starved corpses and even could watch foreign movies. Instead, one was actually selected to live a “good life”, but escaped. They can even have call phones, instead of having their family sent to camp

When Cherie said that she and her sister would commit suicide if they were ever caught escaping made me really sad. I can't imagine how bad it must be living in North Korea if you would rather take your own life than be caught. I'm glad they escaped and are living better lives now :( 💕

Cherie saying "its so disguting" and laughing when talking about even touching Kim Jong-un was hilarious

I know that it’s a much less horrific experience, but my friend was accused of “extremism” (which basically means being an opposition) by Russian government and had to flee to Lithuania as a refugee to escape imprisonment. She told me she was literally crying out of happiness and relief that she was finally safe and free after days of trembling in fear for her freedom. I’m so glad all these people managed to escape from their country, but I feel bad for those who had to stay. I hope someday all countries will be free of dictatorship and no one will have to experience all this suffering to live a normal life anymore 😥
