    Modern day North Korea, nicknamed the hermit kingdom, is known to be heavily isolated from the influences of the world. Its people are secluded and forced to praise their ruler, Kim Jong-un, or else they shall pay a dreadful price. Moreover, personally, I do not believe that Jong un’s people truly see and love him as this god-like figure.

This is even shown by the number of refugees who risk not only their own lives but their families in order to desperately escapes the clutches of their horrifying environment.…

There are also people who want to take a stand and say something, but don't have a solution in how to end it.…
