A few days ago a friend recommended “Escaping North Korea”, a BBC documentary from 2008/2009. Interesting, shocking, eye-opening…If you want to make a difference in life go to any of the mentioned places and help those poor North Koreans escape.
Unfortunately, the documentary doesn’t seem to be available anywhere online but for an 11-part copy in rather bad quality at YouTube:
- Part 1
- Part 2
- Part 3
- Part 4
- Part 5
- Part 6
- Part 7
- Part 8
- Part 9
- Part 10
- Part 10+ aka part 11 aka the end
A report with very similar stories was published in 2009 by National Geographic. The Durihana Christian organization and its leader, pastor Chun, featured in both the documentary and the NG article, have their own Wikipedia page.
