Escaping From North Korea: VICE Meets Kim Hye-Sook
Ойын-сауық
Kim Hye-sook was born in North Korea, and at the age of 13, along with her family, was sent to Bukchang concentration camp (also known as Camp 18) as a punishment for her grandfather's attempt to escape North Korea.
She spent nearly three decades as a prisoner at the camp and eventually managed to run away and defect to South Korea. Since her escape, she drew maps and pictures of her experience at Bukchang that were used by UN investigators to identify and prove the existence the camp from satellite images.
Ben Makuch met up with Kim Hye-sook in Seoul, where she currently resides, to talk about her pictures and experiences from her 28 years at Bukchang labor camp.

(This comment is for the video in my comment, not this one.)The cuts in this video are insane it’s like every 30 seconds they cut something out they don’t want us to hear. m.kzread.info/dash/bejne/iZuXrqaCqM-Xd9I.html If you set the comment on recent comment, those are real people. All the comment you see at first are the 1% trying to make the video seem legit. There are a some real accounts that have been fooled, Beware
