PLEASE SHARE THIS VIDEO TO RAISE AWARENESS! We initially planned on running a crowdfunding campaign for Mr. Kim, but couldn't find any suitable North-Korea-related charities or non-profit organizations that Mr. Kim wanted to be associated with. We were told by Mr. Kim that most well-known non-profits you may have heard of cannot provide the support he needs to execute the rescue missions as efficiently and effectively as he'd like. If you have any suggestions, please reach out to him directly ► mg5188@naver.com

Hey Asian Boss, thank you for all the great interviews and fundraising that you provide for us on KZread.

I don’t understand how he could safely do his job now that the internet knows what he looks like.

I'm especially impressed how he stressed the issue of female trafficking in China. From all the horror that he's seen he wanted us to be aware of this problem in particular. This man has a very inspiring life story. Even if he only does it because he can't do anything else, it's still admirable.

I hope this wont put him in a difficult situation. And it's really courageous of him to go through all that in order to help. Kudos to mr. Min ki.

I understand your concern but you too will be risking your safety and livelihood for the chance to help a complete stranger. I aplaud your empathy and concern but this isnt a job for anyone. You will be constantly on edge day and night not knowing when, how or who will be captured. You are just vulnerable as the ones who are escaping. I personally k ow these types of people in China. But I wouldn't advise anyone to jump into this without knowing anything about the entire prospect of a life like this. I personally do not think your life is worthy of this. I respect those who sacrifice for the greater good though.

Good on you - there are likely many ways you can help in support with less risk, helping in information, guiding resources, many things. They are right that direct work is dangerous, and the social credit scheme over there likely will make it difficult for even indirect support - that is why the scheme exists. What they dont say is that they are using the same words that were used to keep people from helping the Jews in and before ww2, defectors from the Stalinist Soviet countries, resistance fighters in every war. Nobody has the right to tell you to be that brave, but if you are, good on you

I don't blame him though, might be that he's probably wanting more people to donate for the operational cost. After all, it's a dangerous job.

He's definetely a gift sent by god to the Earth. Real life Hero we can say.

whenever you think of spending thousands of money on your favourite celebrity, think of this cause

I know I sound “naive” and not knowledgeable when I say this, but what a world we live in when people are being starved and in danger in their own country but when they try to leave to find themselves and their families a better life, they are seen as traitors who need to be shot on sight or jailed. There’s been countless of different examples that this has happened in countries and other places but it’s always heartbreaking to hear this. I’m aware there’s borders and laws and more complicated than that but when people are trying to leave in fear of their own survival, we cannot ignore or put this aside

Sarah Kupka North Korean defectors, especially students, struggle in adjusting to the the academic aspects of S.Korea. I recommend you look into 새터민 (what defectors are called in S.Korea) programs because I am pretty sure they have programs that help these children learn English to be able to catch up to their peers in school

9:48 subtitle is wrong. 500won in this case is not a korean money but a chinese money. 500won(RMB) is about US$70 not a US$0.50 자막이 잘못되었습니다. 여기서 말하는 "500원"은 한국돈 500원이 아니라 중국돈(인민폐) 500원입니다. 현재 환율로 대략 70달라 정도 이네요.

Thank goodness for people like Mr. Kim who fight the good fight and give these people the hope for a better future. As always, Steve- you are a consummate professional and an excellent interviewer. You are by far, one of the best I have seen. You ask the tough questions, but you're still respectful, thoughtful and you always allow the interviewee to have time to express themselves.

Great interview Asian Boss. I think Min Ki is so used to burying most of his feelings to keep himself and the defectors safe. He is doing great work. Stay safe Min Ki.

12:24 Rescuing people from a foreign country is not a easy thing. Respect to this man.

Just imagine if South Korea was as cruel to these defectors as much as the other North Korean enemies... South Korea being supportive helps these ppl not only to taste freedom but also gives them the comfort of being in a fellow korean nation and speaking hangul which wud give them a sense of home... South Korea we salute you🤝🤝🤝

Its good that he shared the exact incidents happened to defectors. But I'm concerned about his safety and you may cover the face though. I read somewhere that The north korean might not see this but the army are instructed to do anything including watching youtube to discover things they called 'criminal' in their country. Dont just do this to get viewers but also to protect these poor souls. They have suffered enough

Mr. Kim......I thank you for all you've done and will continue to do in your lifetime to help those in need. May you be safe and swift in your job. Also, thank you Asian Boss for keeping us all educated on such issues. 💙💜❤🧡💛💚👍🏻

Thank you for existing, 김 민기씨

What an amazing man to selflessly help all those desperate people. He is truly risking not only his own life but the lives of his family also

This guy is a real hero. It's heartbreaking to see how so many centuries have passed and we still face inhuman acts like human trafficking / slavery and so many people are denied basic human rights. Thank you, Asian Boss folks, for bringing more awareness on us.
