What????! He was just used to push a war agenda. Prepare to move Seoul's population to the South if you enjoyed that.

I knew he looked familiar!!!!

I hope people can stay non-political about this. I've found your videos to be very unbiased and is why I like it. If someone in an interview has something political to say, that's different, as long as you didn't guide them there. Please keep up the good work.

I cried when I saw him on tv. I knew he looked familiar... I had seen this video when it came out. 😭

G erman C arrasco I'm living in Seoul and I heard Trump's speech. It was very impressive and excellent delivery. We have to think this issue apart from politics. Just think what is the substance..!

Being a doctor myself I can only imagine they did not have the tools nor the medicine to operate properly. You cant locally anaesthecise such a huge area because the accumulated dosage needed for such a long operation would be fatal, so only a full anaestethic would be a viable option, but that requires a respirator which they probably didnt have. They probably only had a manual bonesaw, no electric tools we use nowadays and even with proper tools operating on a legbone is physically demanding. Because of the lack of tools the probably had to cut off the hand, because operating on the fingers would require specialised, small tools and expertise in handsurgery they probably did not have. I can only make a guess, of course, but the decision the surgeon had to make was either let the child die to his severe injuries, or perform an operation under horrible conditions without any ressources we take for granted in modern operating theaters. It must have been horrible for everyone involved, but it was either that or certain death for the child.

Klaus Mustermann oh wow I can’t imagine even being within earshot

The leg amputation made me think of the Civil War. He is one amazing man to survive through all that.

Keenan TV At least there was ether during the Civil War. Before that you’d be dosed with liquor, laudanum or both. The “good old days” weren’t so great.

Klaus Mustermann It’s truly amazing that he didn’t die of blood loss. I suppose their blood banks must be as deficient as their anesthesiologists.

It's truly heartbreaking. It's insanity the confluence of Political interests that keep that regime going for so long. I don't want to get political, but China will never allow the union of both Koreas, as it will mean a NATO member and a US ally right on their border. North Korea will probably have to remain as a buffer Nation between them.

lovelylight nuke them or whatever

n00bie and this is why no one likes America

Mystic Jnigo im not american. But the fact that you thought i was, shows how the american stereotype is pretty recognizable

vrcdragan We have more beggars, yet we have more people then North Korea . Correct, pretty sure the percentage on poverty is higher in North Korea then in the U.S.

Survivor's guilt

In the previous interview, one of the defectors also said he still remember seeing one of the girls searching food with him died in front of his eyes and he still felt guilty over it. 😭😭😭

Yes, I would feel sorry too if I were him, but remember that he was starving too

This might sounds cruel but.. she might better be off dead at that time than suffering both mentally and physically for extended period

I agree, what evil, what would it had been for her another 3 or 5 years of the same, it breaks my heart to hear of such suffering of poor people let alone a child, I believe in the Almighty Father Yahweh/Jehovah and his son Yahshua/Jesus who came and died for mankind, someday there will be a resurrection and this young child will come back to life, but this time there will be no evil people no evil rulers, we will live in peace righteousness and joy with Holy Spirit under the rule of a gentle kind King the Son of God Himself.

This is the natural outcome of marxism and communism.

Explore the wonders that's why i always looking forward to this channel for any content abt north korea. Asian boss is the most genuine one. Other outlet like bbc, cnn, journey something only pursue NK story for sensational value,

RequiemFor America not really. dictatorships come in many guises.

RequiemFor America no its not you brainwashed moron.

Dictatorships may come in many guises but freedom and free markets are the #1 solution.

marxist leftist communist ideology CREATES the most needy and the most vulnerable members - those who think that creating bigger and bigger government to "help the poor" are the most deluded fools and should live in north korea if they think expanding government run WELFARE is the answer - because the most government controls and redistributes, the poorer everyone eventually becomes. And in order to continue holding onto power all welfare/commie governments become totalitarian tyrannies like Venezuela, North korea, Soviet Union, Cuba etc

RequiemFor America however there are countries that have free education and healthcare but are still very successful (like Finland and Norway), it just has to be done right

Wide Awake who say norway and finland are less successful. In fact their income per capita are much higher than USA

RequiemFor America - WTF. Most every European Countries has some form of welfare or another, a big one is universal healthcare. We are spending MORE MONEY maintaining the our shitty system that BANKRUPTS people here US, tens of thousands of people DIE because they lack healthcare. You think that's fucking okay? Those other Developed countries who have Universal Healthcare have HIGHER QUALITY OF LIFE and LONGER AVERAGE LIFESPANS than here in the US. Loads of people are just trying to get a fucking education that they need to have in order to have any sort of career achievement are being DESTROYED by incredible amounts of debt, which in some cases they are arrested for defaulting on. EDUCATION SHOULD NOT BE A FUCKING BUSINESS, IT SHOULD BE A HUMAN RIGHT. THE SAME WITH HEALTHCARE. Scandinavian countries have some of the best QUALITY OF LIFE scores IN THE WORLD and they implement the same policies you hate so much. The US is the STRONGEST AND MOST WEALTHY ECONOMY IN THE WORLD yet 50% of that wealth is owned by the richest members of society, and the US government spends 1 TRILLION dollars every year on overseas military spending, maybe if we toned that stupid shit down because I dunno WE'RE ACTIVELY MAKING THE WORLD LESS PEACEFUL creating terrorists by destabilizing the middle east so we can feed them to our war machine, we could afford to actually INVEST IN THE MIDDLE CLASS AND THE POOR and make the economy and people's lives so much better, is that so fucking bad? Yeah it is INCREDIBLY BENEFICIAL to the economy because if people aren't living paycheck to paycheck THEY HAVE MORE FUCKING MONEY TO SPEND ON PRODUCTS AND IT STRENGTHENS THE ECONOMY, If you're living paycheck to paycheck you can't afford to buy much on the side. Get your fucking head out of your ass, you are literally advocating for people dying and having a worse life. You are advocating for a society that has a worse fucking economy. You are advocating for a society that only benefits the rich and wealthiest. NOTHING IN THIS IDEOLOGY IS MARXIST, MARXISM ADVOCATES FOR REDISTRIBUTION OF THE MEANS OF PRODUCTION TO THE WORKING CLASS AND THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A DICTATORSHIP OF THE WORKING CLASS I am still advocating for Capitalism, I think it's a better system but the system of extensively unregulated capitalism we have now is choking the entire country and making everyone more poor. In what fucking world is that a good thing?

you're delusional

Jessica Marie maybe if you were raised there you wouldn't let yourself die and have a will to live. But yes for people who were raised in countries like this I imagine they would be a bit weaker and let themselves die. I feel bad since I we might be weaker than them and probably go insane.

Jessica Marie dont feel bad for him this video is just an example on how easy is to manipulate people with dumb propaganda.

vrcdragan Mhm, I see that you have no idea what you're actually talking about. Tell me, are you drunk? You don't seem to be from any english-speaking country, since your comments are pretty much gibberish.

Mary or something - I agree

vrcdragan Is dumbass your favourite word, because you can't explain your points and prefer to go off on people on the Internet, calling them ignorant while being a hopeless ignorant yourself? So narcissistic, I truly pity you. Get off KZfaq, smell some flowers and get professional help - you really need it. Your anger issues make people laugh more than anything.

vrcdragan Speaking from the one that can't spell "naive"

vrcdragan wtf is wrong with you. You've been commenting that on every comment. You're a disgrace

+Emma Douglas we need to report this loser before he trolls some more.

Just did it.

Trinh Nguyen I did👌🏻

아기고양야옹 ... What about S.KOREA ? Is it not a bit odd that they would not assist these few detectors ? Just hard to believe this...

Paul Drien some people in S.Korea believe North Korean defectors are all spies and they're gonna destroy the southern society. personally i think that opinion is thinkable because we've been in a serious war and politicians have been talking North Korea as a enemy in last 50 years. so the people's thoughts haven't changed a lot....its a shame that we're not helping our neighbors.

the Thief Sean 지금 저분이 물어보신거는 우리 주변의 탈북자분들에 대해 물어본 것이에요...우리 사회가 북에서 왔다고 하면 색안경부터 끼고 보는 행태에 대해 이야기한 겁니다

아기고양야옹 you south koreans are working very hard for your masters american capitalists.

I'm curious as to if South Koreans even want reunification ? Do you know what people in general think about this in korea?

Daniel thats so sad t.t

Yeah that's exactly what i was thinking during the vidéo. North Korea is a giant Gulag

Daniel famine happened becouse of capitalism. In 1988 only 1% of people in soviet union lived in poverty. In 1993 almost 50% of people lived in poverty becouse of capitalist reforms!

Daniel dont blame commumism for that. Blame gorbachev the traitor who killed thousands of people with his capitalist reforms.

Soviet union was stagnant and going bankrupt

Dude, I've seen you on pretty much every comment on here. Strop trolling the comments if you're just going to attack and insult people.

I want to help them,but I don't what should I do

Kim Jong Un wasn't a president at the time. People say there was a food crisis and political instability before kimJonUn came to power. So North Korea sligthly better at this age. As I say just slightly.

the people intervieved starved during the famine, the famine is long over, they even say in the video that this all hapened during the years of the famine. Today it's much better, atleast people aren't starving to death.

I wouldn’t describe his fat ass as “pretty” lol

He’ is so evil!

@@user-ge4uk9ui8y I wouldn’t call it “much better”. Sure there’s no famine, but the majority of people there are still living in total poverty, are worked like dogs for basically slave labor and live off of mostly government supplied rice (only getting meat on special occasions). And on top of that they have no freedom, no democracy and no contact with the outside world. Sounds like hell to me.

Nah. Koreans are short in general. The other guy is half korean. I don't know any research study anyway, which says malnutrition results in shortness. It's pretty much in the dna.

Are you serious... Of course malnutrition in children results to shortness. Why do you think people are growing taller with each generation ?

로빈 Malnutrition does result in being short,.. this is pretty basic information. There's some vital factors that play into whether or not you reach your potential height ; if you are neglected as a child you will have a growth deficiency and become short , or if you are malnourished from you are a child. Of course some nations are just shorter, but North Koreans could become taller if they were able to get the same food as South Koreans; I mean South Koreans are very tall these days right? This is over many years, because their resources became better.

로빈 진짜 빡대가리냐.. 극도로굶으면 당연히 키 안큼.. 상식인데 요즘 우리나라가 너무 잘살아서 이런 상식도 없는시댄가보다.

peter hong I am actually shocked that some actually want to visit North Korea. There are so many great countries to go to but yet some choose to visit that hell hole.

You're both very close-minded.

They want to boast going to a place that's notorious for being dangerous. Look at that Warmbier kid. Got his ass whooped. Any sane person would cross of N Korea off their bucket list.

I'd only go to north Korea of it involved invading them

I am fucking South Korean you douchebag. I know what it's like since we get educated on our Northern counterparts in our schools. And guess what: South Koreans are banned from North Korea unless you're a representative from the government. Also, you don't NEED to go there to know the horror of the average citizens. The defectors tell us more than enough.

Human Being what the heck is Muslims in India supposed to mean..do not even compare that with what these people are going through in North Korea..

Muslim in India lives the same life as other religion people live. Just speak about yourself.

If North Korea gets attacked China will respond

books out for hoseok ... But no one can get help because they never get it there...so not possible... With God willing that ....needs to be taken out will not elaborate, but there are ma,y ways... To save those lives...Pray for them...

I feel the same way but The dictator have put so much more money into tightening the borders so it’s almost impossible to defect nowadays. I feel so sad for all the little children who have no choice but to grow up in this horrible place. We can donate but how are they going to get it to them. There’s no way really so it’s almost like they’re doomed

인주현 물어보는게 이상한거죠; 하기사 한국은 그런 엽기적인 사람들이 많을수도 있겠다.

gwajadanji 한국이 남의 나이나 수입같은걸로 오지랖떨고 그런게 심한건 저도 인정합니다만 한국에서만 저런거에 대해 무례하게 질문할 거라는 발상은 도대체 어디서 나오는건지요? 조국이 그렇게도 싫으신가..? 아님 해외를 안나가보신건가..; 질문자체가 무례한건 팩트지만 한국인 중에만 무례한 사람이 많을거라는건 편견입니다. 외국에도 이런거보면 what happened to yo leg? 오히려 이런식으로 직설적으로 걍 물어보는 애들이 얼마나 널렸는데;; 조롱하는 애들도 한국보다 더 많으면 많았지 덜하지 않고요. 외국만큼이나 혹은 더욱 사려깊은 사람들 한국에 엄청 많습니다. 무조건 삐딱하게만 보지 말고 생각 좀 해보시면 좋겠네요

Alex2614 I hope one day they vote in a different leader. Kim jon un's party is starting to lose votes though, so that's good

Jack Hagan there's no other party. The Kims are gods

In a country like North Korea, there is no voting system. Kim Jong Un's family have been in power since the "end" of the Korean war. North Koreans are supposed to think of the family as gods and royalty and can not speak out. Think of this system as something similar but worse than a royal government system.

Alex2614 ... There has to be a better way to remove this CRUEL inhuman... But do not wish to hear that USA would risk to kill innocents already suffering so much... That would be condemnable to do it... Somehow feel judgemental about S.KOREA...they know a lot, and they should have take over the north long time ago.... But they complain to USA for years...wanting that USA gets involved ?? NOT FAIR...

This issue itself is quite complex. It is extremely dangerous to start a war with North Korea. Even if their weapons and military are weak, they still have nuclear weapons which endanger the surrounding countries. Yes, I am aware that many other countries (like the USA), have nuclear weapons as well, however, the USA does not want to use nuclear weapons because they do not want a repeat of Hiroshima and Nagasaki during WWII - no one wants a repeat of that. Unfortunately, with Trump in power of the USA, we might actually have a Korean War II and quite possibly a WWIII. South Korea does not want to start a war with the north matter how much they want to help the powerless citizens. We all want to help but there's no right way to do it

Rainbow SniggleFritz same just seeing a bit of it made me tear up

Right?

Asian Boss Applause for these people who kept fighting for a better life and to the people who help them with assistance. The more people willing to help the more people will be free.

Asian Boss ... Please, just tell me how about S.KOREA ?? Are they not giving any help to this precious people who luckily escaped ?? I a. A bit confused here...How is this possible if it is ?? If understood correctly he is now there right ? Or even China...I know that neither China, neither S.Korea would let him go hungry... Would appreciate some clarification....My heart is aching for N.Korea nation... We were born and lived under communism regime until 1985...when came locally to USA...We made this change for our two teenager sons ,s future... Never in our life we were treated like this back in Europe... To me N.Korea is not communist but tyranny...unbelievable... BY ALL MEANS FEEL STRONGLY THAT THIS CRUEL MAN BE REMOVED... BUT PLEASE...NEVER TO HARM THESE ALREADY SUPPRESSED NATION...THEY HAVE TO STAY ALIVE... THERE ARE MANY WAYS TO REMOVE HIM...WITHOUT WAR...TO SEE THEM DIE... O.M.G...HOPE THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN TO THEM...

Explore the wonders you guys are going to suffer more when god comes back to kill.

With all due respect, what are you talking about? China sends N. Korean defectors back, and China is and has been the financial bulwark that's allowed N. Korea to survive financially for the past few decades. China wouldn't let them go hungry? I have nothing against the Chinese, and I understand their motivations, but this comment is laughable. China sends defectors back to N. Korea. S. Korea has had at one point a "Sunshine Policy." Massive amounts of aid was given to N. Korea. The USA at one point also gave incredible amounts of aid. Did that go to the poor who need it most? What do you think? It's the same in African countries ruled by despots too. The Aid simply makes it way to the powerful anyway. S. Korea also gives N. Koreans free education, monthly allowance, and offers them other social programs to help them get integrated into S. Korean society. There are, in fact, even popular TV shows centered completely around N. Koreans giving their point of view. KZfaq 이제 만나러 갑니다 or 모란봉 클럽. I mean no disrespect, but for someone writing so passionately, perhaps you should read up on the topic more before. This is a very difficult political and social situation that you seem to be taking too lightly just shouting "what is S. Korea doing?" "what is China doing?"

Asian Boss crowd rise is charging really high for transaction fees. Around 10%? Is there no other better alternatives?

Koreans are not allowed to go to North Korea, only foreigners can go on tour. Please read and educate yourself.

Dan L Um he said “people” not “South Koreans”

@Only Solo it's time we start using our brains. Re-read.

@Only Solo the time is near, pay attention

Exactly !

e luquette Thats never happening. China looks out for itself and in order to get on North Korea’s good side, they appease North Korea by sending North Koreans back

But if that's the case, all the North Korean defectors will stay in China while China still has a lot of citizens in porverty to take care of.

Embargo all Chinese products.

if US military leave South Korea,everything will be ok.

The fact that China agrees to send these guys back is actually these guys' ONLY HOPE. If China didn't make such a deal with NK, the guard on the line between the to countries would be just as tough as the one with South Korea. That would make the northern passage completely impossible.

서동엽 yes . Agree With u but we MUST to spread this situation of north korean defectors so many ppl will know it and north koreans will have many support and love

뚜비뚜비쿠쿠 ... FYI... S.KOREA NEEDS TO HELP THEM PERIOD...
