As a future guest, I'd like to see an interview with KZfaqr and published author, Japanese North Korean defector Kim Joosung 金柱聖 who was born in Japan and defected to North Korea then defected to South Korea where he resides. He has lived in Japan for 14 years, North Korea for 32 years, and now in South Korea for 14 years. The interview would probably have to be in Korean with subtitles but his perspective is fascinating and so different from Yeonmi. Striking was his identity as a Zainichi Korean whether he's in Japan or North Korea or South Korea.

I understand that she doesn't agree with woke culture, but that doesn't mean the people on the far right she has aligned herself with are her friends either. Some of them will use people like her as a shield for their own agendas. Just like people on the left push their views, individuals on the right also push their traditional and religious opinions and ostracize people who dont agree. I have also noticed that she has this attitude that Americans don't have much to complain about. Ive seen her complain about groups such as blm over their protests. Just because another country has more problems by comparison, it doesn't mean there isn't anything legitimate to be concerned about here. We will never get anything solved, with the 'shut up, people have it worse' argument.

What do half of these topics have to do with anything this channel is about? Why does she spend half of her time talking about ideological issues happening in the United States when no one is here to hear about these things? What was the point of this interview? You’d be better off having Jordan Peterson on here lmfao did she pay y’all to be on here? This is incredibly disappointing grifter content.

Yeonmi is a celebrity NK defector who has told her story many many times and they're readily available to watch on KZfaq. Is it her celebrity/influencer status that she is on AB's new podcast? That I can understand. But if its to gain better insight into life in NK, don't have her repeat what she's said elsewhere, or keep it to a minimum. For example, if she left NK at age 13, how much of her knowledge about the regime structure is based on personally witnessed material and how much from her parents or other older defectors? How many 13 year olds are knowledgeable about their own country's political system. Stephen's inability to ask pointed questions is just so frustrating, he's clearly put her on a victimization pedestal where being a victim automatically places you on the moral authority high ground regarding the culture of a totally different nation, the US. Her crusade against US wokeness basically paints a very reductionist, one sided, negative, pessimistic view of US culture in the most broadest brush strokes to a captivated or captured interviewer. The way she says the US as in danger of a NK style socialism in the making dismisses about half the population and the growth of populism in both the right and the left. As an example, her assumption that all young Americans don't see through the hypocrisy of AOC shows just how ignorant she is on current events. Wokeness exists, but there's more to the US then the way Yeonmi describes and if that is what AB wants to cover, she is not the right person for the subject, or you, as the interviewer, just don't have the journalistic skill and confidence to make a good presentation to the world at large on this complex topic. So she went to a very liberal college, well there are more conservative leaning colleges too in the US. It appears like Stephen is trying too hard to protect Yeonmi's feelings because she is thin and fragile-looking and a famous victim who might break. Make no mistake, this woman is as tough as nails and knows how to market herself. Activism and trading on her past is how she makes a good living. "According to Wikipedia, Forbes, IMDb & Various Online resources, at 29 years, Yeonmi Park’s net worth is $1-5 Million." Nothing wrong with that, she does it well, but she is no moral authority figure beyond her own story, don't treat her as if she is.

Isn't this the lady that got called out by real north korean survivors as a liar, and she was really from a privileged military family or something of the sorts. Then she came to america and started pandering to old white conservatives about various culture/identity politics that have nothing to do with korean experience at all? Didn't she have a lot of fans that turned on her after they found out about all her lies over the years that didn't match up? Are those issues addressed/mentioned?

Don't most othe north Korean defectors call her for over exaggerating her story?

Judging from the comments below, this is definitely going to be one of the most divisive videos from Asian Boss.

the thing is. her views don't actually match up with the ones she claims to have

I have watched and listened thoughtfully the questions and replies, do have personal thoughts that I will reserve in my mind but will share one thing, which is my appreciation and respect to Steve for doing this interview in a manner I think is impartial yet respectful. Ultimately, after watching the entire interview, I remain curious and like AB's motto "stay curious".. Thank you Steve.

This lady is nothing but a clout chaser , I am pretty sure she has lied about a lot of things (her back story) that did not check out.

As much as I appreciate you bringing attention to the plight of the North Koreans Asian Boss, Yeonmi's probably not the best person to go to. Her stories have had many discrepancies pointed out by other North Korean defectors and analysts on North Korea. This leads her to be an untrustworthy narrator at best and an active liar at worst. No doubt that trauma from escaping the country could cloud one's memory or give them a hazy recollection of events, but I think you should be a bit more cautious about who you have on and make sure other defectors and organizations support the person involved. I really recommend reaching out to Liberty in North Korea or The Citizens' Alliance for North Korean Human Rights for speakers; I'm sure they'd love to talk to you! They're both non-profits so I feel like they would be a much better outlet on info about North Korea and its defectors.

This is a great interview but she definitely minimized American social issues based on interactions with very privileged people and not experiences of the groups those issues actually affect.

I wonder if someone with the life experiences that Ms. Park has had is able to recognise that just because there's a free market economy and open elections in a country, doesn't mean the rich and the privileged aren't trying to hold the other 99.99% of the population down.

Isn’t this woman the one that said in North Korea people pull trains to get around the country?

She changes her story every time I see her in an interview. She is been making the international talk show circuit for a decade now. She is a pathological liar. Even Korean experts of North Korean defectors believe she embellished her stories in order to sell her books and paid interviews.

As a middle-lower class American, the culture and environment you are describing in Columbia, is so extremely foreign to me. The elite live so differently from the people in rural America.

I binged watched several of her interviews all at once. I'm a bit confused. Did I confuse her with someone else? Some of the stories are slightly different. Or maybe it could just be the way she's expressing herself.

Is Asian Boss unaware of the fact that this woman had been called out by other defectors from North Korea. There are many parts of her account which are dubious. I think you need to vet future guests more closely.

kinda gross to see this right wing grifter making an appearance on one of my favorite channels.

Great interview ❤

Big fan of Asian Boss. Usually the videos are a great watch while having a good meal, but I could tell even before clicking that the comment section will satisfy a whole week's worth of dinners, haha.

It's possible to overcome great horrific trauma without being delusional and using it as an excuse / correlation to your future behavior

What an L, people deserve platforms to express their opinions, but there needs to be journalistic accountability, if you are going to spread falsities, then we gotta call you out on your bs.

Much of this felt more like a video from the Daily Wire or another explicitly conservative channel than something that’s supposed to be informative on some level like Asian Boss. Yeonmi Park is not the greatest choice of person to interview to begin with, but Stephen just uncritically going along with everything she said just turned it into a right-wing circlejerk with no educationally redeeming content whatsoever. I mean, the thing about schoolchildren demanding to be called cats and given litter boxes? Really? If the founder of Asian Boss can be as easily convinced by this propaganda nonsense as my grandma on Facebook, I’m not sure that his channel is one which will continue to be worth watching. Maybe if I stick to the videos which feature hosts other than him. I won’t soon forget what a lack of judgment he showed here.

Thanks for doing this interview.

"They only want a diversity of skin colour, but they don't want a diversity of thoughts." truer words were never spoken

I appreciate her bravery, experiences and opinions. But she doesn't have a full understanding nor experience of privilege, elitism in the US. Most college campuses have always been 'woke' even before the term was popular. They kind of have to be this way. Because once graduates enter the workforce and become part of capitalism machinery, most people change. Once people cross a threshold of tax bracket, wealth, and class, they switch sides: they no longer care about the values they hold dear back in college, they no longer care about reducing poverty, equality, access to housing, etc, some will even become part of the system that creates more inequality.

Privilege is real. No, no one is to blame for what their ancestors did. But it's naive to deny that there is systemic bias. There are definitely extremists on this issue. Everybody does not think like what she describes. We all have to be careful not to label extremists views as the common consensus.

When you said you were taking a new direction with this channel, I was excited. However, it’s clear that you did not do your research, AB. This woman is a known grifter who has lied about many of her stories. There is no doubt there are horrendous atrocities happening in NK, but when people like Yeonmi show up with inconsistencies in her story, it overshadows the truth and ruins credibility. Also, “woke culture” is used in most of the Western world to describe progressive liberals and leftists, not Republicans. The title is misleading.

You are one of the best interviewers I have ever come across

Fantastic interview!

Oh y'all got the liar on? The woman of a thousand conflicting tails

Really disappointed seeing this channel uncritically platforming her nonsense. It makes me regret having donated to saving the channel before, seeing it fall this low.

Damn,this was quite the insight I needed. I didn't know that random scrolling would lead me here!

OMG. I would love to see the movie. Can we have the link too please??? 💕

Miss Yeonmi "North Koreans are forced to push trains" Park

Is this what they begged for money to save? The beginning half was good but she has overly simplistic views of some concepts. I agree with her on some points but there were some places that he really should have pushed back. Nuance flew out the window. Sometimes people can be partially correct on opposing sides and none of that was pointed out.

I think you guys need to tread lightly on these matters, I think while letting people speak on street interviews is the correct decision, sometimes if people have their own platforms and/or influence there needs to be some sort of back and forth to be push back on their ideas.

Her story has gotten more and more severe and changed over the years. She is also sponsored by western NGO’s and right wing think tanks.

not me actually being excited about this video at first. followed asian boss for probably over 4 years now and also followed yeonmi on youtube, rest assured after watching the second half of this video i unfollowed both channels. yuck. yeonmi rly saying “my child is half white and half asian, so he is the lowest cast in america” and not asian boss calling systemic racism, people with emotional support animals, and gender neutral bathrooms crazy. BYE.

It highly depends on which school you go to, I didn’t experience any of those things in my any of American school. I think it is probably a very specific type of area and school that is like that

It's interesting that she enjoys the freedom speech in the US but don't want others who don't agree with her to exercise their freedom too. You HAVE freedom of speech in the US and people can HAVE the right to not agree with you. They can CHOOSE to not agree with you by unfollowing you, boycotting companies that support you, etc...Freedom of speech does NOT mean freedom from consequences. Is Yeonmi Park locked up for spreading misinformation...no? Did the police harass her...no?

Great interview..

Too much ideological / political over-generalization. That said, her raw earlier experiences deserve validation.

Such a good listen. Thank you for this.

Wtf is this video. Why is the channel switching attitudes?

I my experience, most of the time when people whine about "woke culture" they're jus disappointed that they no longer can be close minded assholes to everyone around them.

15:55 does she say her mom was sold for 65 dollars and she was sold for 20 and that she's sold for more because she's more valuable as a younger virgin? I only ask because it doesn't make sense because 65 is more than 20. Lol

One of the best interview I've seen!

I agree with Yeonmi Park's general opinions against North Korea and woke culture, but she definitely comes off as dishonest, especially in how she exaggerates her stories. In the past, other North Korean defectors have said that she exaggerates her stories about North Korea. Similarly, as an American, I feel somewhat the same when she discusses woke culture. Woke culture sucks, but she makes it seem like a great cultural threat that can rip apart American society, when it's more like an annoyance in my perspective. It also feels like the issue of woke culture is overrepresented online, and in real life people tend to be more open to each other. Although I think she bases her stories from real negative events, I believe she greatly exaggerates them to keep the attention of an audience to financially support herself. Despite my disliking of this particular video, I've always liked Asian Boss for featuring different people's voices, even if I disagree with them. I hope that Asian Boss can feature lesser known North Korean defectors in the future, to get a more honest lense on issues regarding North Korean and other topics.

Steve is a top class interviewer. I really appreciate your continued coverage of North Korean defectors -- and having the guts to talk about what's happening in American universities.

1:19:10 But we don't have a caste system. Instead Florida is editing out black history. No one knew about Juneteenth until recently. You misunderstand so much. We have yet to write our full inherented history. Our human right is to participate in free speech and push back. That doesn't mean we have power. Here its checks and balances fighting for their interests. What you perceive as authority, we don't.

the second half of the video was ridiculous, sounds like the weird messages my grandma receives with a bunch of misinformation, this is what you decide to do after all those difficulties? why did we even stick around

So much of this "interview" felt a bit icky to me, I was not surprised by Yeonmi viewpoints about America. As others have stated she is sorely misguided/uneducated about ALOT. What surprised me the most was Stephen's response to some of her answers. It seemed as if he accepted a lot of her answers as facts vs viewing them through a critical lens. Which some could argue that he may need to check his inherent biases. Asian Boss, FYI, when the MAGA crowd jumps in with their support in the comments section that's when you know your content is on a slippery slope.

Has anyone ever asked Yeonmi why she's had so much plastic surgery? I mean you'd think she'd care about other things in life after everything she's survived

Honestly, I read her book and watched many videos, but she clearly has empathy problems and admitted she hasn't gone to therapy and laughed at this idea, but I think she could use it. She doesn't understand any problems outside of North Korea, like racism for example. Everything is overly simplistic in her worldview, but somehow, she's convinced she's got the right opinion because she associated herself with right-wing people

There's not 1000 pronouns. I think she misunderstood a lot of what her professors said. I want to hear what the English professor really said about Jane Austen.

I watch her story and 100% know she's bullshitting and overdramatize everything

idk if someone who was raised and experienced most of their life in another country, one that is completely closed off from the rest of the world, should be making such generalized claims on air about complex social issues in America...

It’s sad that you give this woman a platform, who not only has changed her story countless times (if you don’t want to call it lying), releasing countless videos on her KZfaq channel with sensationalizing, unbacked claims and in the recent years has become a tool for those who don’t believe in democracy, fair elections, equality for everyone and so on. Sadly it seems like even her exterior has nothing to do anymore with the person she once was when she fled the ruling regime in Pyongyang.

I would be interested to hear from other NK defectors if they have different experiences from Yeonmi, especially if they are different classes/castes

Got to be honest here, there have been past videos from Asian Boss where the interviewer took an absolute neutral stance towards the themes/interviewee, with no reaction whatsoever or without offering any personal views, remarks... This one didn't which is disheartening. I know it's a podcast so the style usually goes for an exchange of questions and views but...meh... Quite different from what Asian Boss usually do 🤷‍♀ I also don't think the questions where challenging or brought anything new to the table, it was just more of the same of all the interviews with Yeonmi.

omg this was long overdue

When you said long ago that you want to give different perspective towards the same issues, this is it. Not buying a certain people's agenda and give platform to everyone. Not agreeing with Yeonmi for some parts also because I've heard some stuff, but I respect her voice and experiences. For everyone who are mad why her? Asian Boss gave platforms to other NK Defectors also, please watch them also...most of them in SK since they're also based in Seoul. So if you saying why go to her, please...give them some names NK Defectors that lives in your country that they can reach out to. He mentioned a lot of times to reach out to them. And for everyone who got mad saying it's only for the clicks and money...guys, if they don't have money, they can't put up contents because everything needs to be paid....tools & equipment, operational amd oh...people. If you work in organizations or foundations that rely on donations, you will know that donation only won't pay all of this stuff.

Well I guess that's what happens when you become an influencer, you need to constantly pump out content. But getting into the culture war is sad tbh

Woketivism is wrong. But you guys are also wrong. Socialism is pretty good. Scandanavian countries (and generally European countries) are MORE socialist than America, which is, to a degree, socialist. "Socialism" you're talking about is just dictatorships that pay lip service to socialism. That's why Bernie Sanders, for example, speaks of democratic socialism. It's an accurate label. A generally MORE socialist economy + MORE democratic government sounds good to me. I also would like a much MORE capitalist economy. It really only makes sense to talk about socialism/capitalism as a spectrum within a specific industry. For example, American healthcare needs to become MUCH more socialist: a government run, or heavily government-regulated single-payor (or more capitalist, because it's neither right now. It's anti-competitive and not socialist.) But tech and most industries need to become much more capitalist -- too much rent-seeking, not enough competition, we literally allow contracts called "non-competes", which is insanely anti-capitalist!

“White passing” girl bye

What she said about people being complex, her captor who did horrible things to her but also let her go in the end, is spot on. Can't say I agree with some things she said (Columbia and other universities nowadays are this woke? Could that have just been a niche part of her experience that's not representative of the general experience?), especially after doing some light digging afterwards, but certainly appreciate hearing her experiences escaping from NK. Certainly hope everyone can calm down and analyze things more critically before jumping on one side or other. Even more helpful is to understand that perhaps the way we draw sides doesn't make much sense.

This was a very thought-provoking interview and even if I don't agree with all the opinions by Yeonmi, I do respect her voicing them. Kudos, as always, Asian Boss for making me think about topics from other perspectives👏👏

I can't believe I ever thought you guys were better than this.

Could anyone please tell me the Title of a Film (Korean) i watched @15yrs ago ? It was a Coach Full of Men who were driving to a certain destination, they were all suicidal. There was just the one Teenage Girl on board who was just hitching a Lift. I have been searching for this Film for such a long time and would be SOo grateful for your help! 👍

Nuclear sewage, the main radioactive pollutants are iodine 131, cesium 134 and cesium 137. According to the data given by Japanese officials, the concentration of iodine 131 is about 100 times the safe value, and cesium 134 and cesium 137 are 50-70 times the safe value. within a limited range. However, it should be pointed out that the above-mentioned data on the concentration of radioactive substances are based on the information provided by Tokyo Electric Power Company, and some countries do not fully believe in its accuracy. In addition to being extremely radioactive, it also has the characteristics of high toxicity. The radiotoxicity of nuclides such as strontium 90 and cesium 137 must be isolated for 300 to 500 years to reach a safe level, while the radiotoxicity of nuclides such as plutonium 239 and technetium 99 must be isolated for hundreds of thousands of years to reach a safe level. After the Fukushima nuclear accident, Japan announced several times that plutonium was detected in the soil around the nuclear power plant, which aroused great concern, because plutonium is not only extremely radiotoxic, but also a highly toxic chemical substance. 1 microgram of plutonium can cause death. The Japanese government's intentional discharge of low-concentration radioactive sewage violates the marine environment protection obligations of the London Convention and the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (Article 194, Paragraph 1, Paragraph 2) on the prohibition of dumping all radioactive materials into the ocean. Japan's deliberate discharge is illegal. Not only caused marine pollution, but also polluted the atmosphere. This has resulted in the economic loss of not being able to catch fish and aquatic products in the area. When people eat fish and aquatic products, they will cause harm to their bodies and lives. Most of the risk comes from native fish that inhabit the seafloor where radioactive material is present. Slightly larger fish swimming long distances in the ocean can quickly release any cesium contamination they are exposed to. However, the leaked higher concentrations of strontium-90 were more complicated because it is an osteotropic isotope. "Cesium is like salt, it gets in and out of your body quickly," whereas "strontium gets into your bones." The half-life of strontium-90 is as long as 29 years. Because it has similar properties to calcium, it is easy to enter the bones of the human body, and may cause diseases such as bone marrow cancer and hematopoietic dysfunction, which is very harmful to human health. Nuclear radiation can not only kill cells, but also has the effect of mutagenesis, which may induce cell cancer or gene mutation, resulting in biological deformities and so on.

It started a long time ago. As someone coming from a former communist country in Eastern Europe I am in shock how their tactics, ideology , controlling and insiduous propaganda is so spread in Canada. I just don't understand who's behind all this as it seems to be intentional from a hidden force. I watched Yuri Bezmenov interviews a few years ago and I am trying not to get into "conspiracies" but I really think this is just a process and if it goes on the whole society will be transformed into something not very pleasant to say the least. I'm glad there are people still talking about it though

Great podcast!

I think the concept of "freedom of speech" doesn't mean that you could just simply spread your illusion.

amazing!

Loved the first hour of this. But the later half, as a POC living in America, was very difficult to listen to. Not because Yeonmi was providing her opinion, but because Steven was showing extreme signs of bias with his responses. Disappointing to say the least.

I'm quite disappointed AB made a video on her when her stories keep changing and she lost all credibility. I used to like her older videos and speeches, but I don't trust her at all anymore. Plus she became a full on sellout for the American right wingers. I mean hey if it pays her bill great, but I don't take anything she says serious any longer.

I don’t like the way he worded some of his questions, especially when he started off by saying, “This doesn’t even make sense,”

A black dude attacked me once in NYC as I was walking alone on a road at night. I reacted to him and shouted and when people were coming out to see what was happening he turned the tables around, started acting all scared and called me Racist 😂 I have other similar stories btw

I'm glad I watched the section about her take on "woke" ideology. I can confidently say that she is incorrect. Wrong. It took waiting until the end of that bit to see what the real issue was: North Korean land owners have been persecuted in a similar way that White people are being reminded of their privilege gained by their ancestors during slavery times . In the US there are real consequences to slavery times and the CONTINUED attempts at keeping Black people oppressed. When slaves were freed, then the government created ways to arrest former slaves and have them do work for the State under the law. After that it was poll taxes, Jim Crow laws, redlining, an entire war on drugs which Nixon's administration has ADMITTED was to destroy Black families, Law enforcement against Black Americans and now the attempt to strip schools of the ability to teach Black American history. Aside from, and parallel to, that; the entire time all of this is happening, Black Americans are not capable of building the resources to pass on to the next generation. Not just because of the redlining and the constant attempts at dismantling Black people, but also because of multiple bombings and massacres of Black towns, cities and people. So forgive me if I disagree and call Park absolutely WRONG when she tries to say that "woke" ideology is crazy or made up. I don't know the ramifications of North Koreans owning land, how the people in power viewed that as a threat, why land owners were persecuted, and if or if not land owners perpetuated a system that kept the poor under oppression with _multiple_ tactics that spanned generations, but over there, reminding white people that their ancestors did all of that, and the reason why some of their kids are able to live rent free in a big nice house, when most people can't even afford to RENT, let alone own, is because of that past, and that they will be able to operate in the world with that extra income they're not spending on a mortgage on something that people who have been oppressed won't. Aside from ALL of that, non binary and trans people exist all over Asia so I'm not sure what her disconnect from using peoples' pronouns is.

Thank you. May God Bless you.

You said you're trying to get the best out of college the top of the class. If you suppress a race for many years and don't allow them to have funding to learn , then you have to have policies to get the best. If you suppress One race and the best doesn't come out of them them, you have don't have the best. If you exclude a race for many years how you supposed to get the best out of the whole country?

Thanks!

I got to admit, Asian boss have balls to do this. Thank you.

Every time I hear Yeonmi her story becomes more changed

I find it interesting that she finds certain words and acts towards her as racist but denies the experience of others. People don't have to tolerate hate speech in any form. It isn't a matter of dissenting opinion when it deals with the value of a human being and their life. This country has learned something North Korea hasn't had the opportunity to. Words have power. At one point words allowed slavery. It still allows oppression. This country works everyday to decide what words define our legacy and day to day expressions of self and the nation as a whole. I'll take woke as a synonym for the US over torture, enslavement, or oppression.

"A system that embodies the ideology of inclusion of diversity where your merits don't matter , only thing matters is your genetic fact or race." Well this has been happening in Indian education system for decades and nobody speaks up about it. In the admission criteria of the top Indian educational institutions there are quotas based on your caste. Even if you have very low merit scores due to your minority you can get in very easily but those students who have High merit scores compared to them but doesn't belong to any minority they do not get in.

As a side question, I'm curious how her brief Bible training and contact with missionaries affected her worldview.

Some people always need to struggle to feel alive. I guess she's the darling of the far right. I'm sad she is not using her freedom more productively.

Amazing video! If I could subscribe to Asian Boss for the second time, I would. Respect for covering such a polarizing topic, it shows the character and dedication of this team! And greetings from Eastern Europe.

She is so intelligent and honest! Thank you for talking about thinhs truthfully!!

how is she going to claim she supports freedom of speech while aligning herself with a political party that supports and advocates for banning books? anyway, i feel sorry for those who donated money to this channel just for it to go toward this.

Imagine going through horrors almost inconceivable in the West, an oppressive regime, starvation, sex slavery, life threatening scenarios, and ending up in a place where people tell you you're privileged and a bigot because of your skin colour. Yeonmi always has my love and support, she is an inspiration and one of the best examples of human endurance.

...we don't have the word "freedom" in our vocabulary"... how heartbreaking is that.... to be born free but immediately lose it to the dictatorship...

I am a SUBSCRIBER of hers…I am INDIGENOUS NATIVE AMERICAN and I agree with her perspective on many political issues. I’m older and I’ve seen and experienced the drastic changes from biased media and economic factors. Thank you “ASIAN BOSS” for giving Yeonmi the opportunity to share her journey of escaping North Korea, horrible experiences in CHINA and her life now in the US.

This is one of my favorite quote, quote by Yeonmi Park Freedom without meaning and virtue is an anarchy Freedom needs discipline it needs a responsibility needs like a virtue

I usually admire Asian Boss and whoever they interview but I am greatly disappointed this time that they chose to interview YeonMi. There are many more way more credible defectors who truly suffered unlike her. She was from the elite and just fell from grace. There were times that she and her mom went on reality shows in South Korea flaunting their status and wealth calling themselves the Paris Hilton of North Korea. Many South Koreans know her true colors. I hope that Asian boss can interview more credible people next time if they decide to. She is clearly just a liar and opportunist.

1:05 I understand completely.

Interesting to see that Yeonmi's view on woke culture, gender issues and race issues reflect that of a middle-aged white conservative man
