These sanctions however hurt the average North Korean much more than the dictatorship, and have thus far been ineffective in obtaining more compliance in international human rights law. The international community has demanded action by current leader Kim Jong-un in response to these allegations which include burning bodies of deceased prisoners, hard labor camps, torture, and starvation. The United Nations has also warned the leaders of North Korea that they could be held accountable for his…

Definitely not America's Bitch Although actions speak louder than words, North Korean people continue to remain silent for their sanity. Taught to bow down and give all to the mighty Kim Jong Un, leaving none for themselves. The sovereign immunity of North Korea protects only the main man in charge but provides absolutely no effect to the biggest problem occurring, the tribulation of the people enduring it. Through the eyes of Shin Dong-hyuk, who experienced the trouble first hand, Blaine…

stopped. How Did the Genocide Happen? Who started it? It is well known that North Korea’s government is very different than the United States’, but it was not always this way. After World War II, the Korean peninsula was divided into North and South; Kim Il-sung came in to power. He started to make a “cult of personality” around him and his family, so that people would worship him. The government replaced the previous religions—like Buddhism and Confucianism; they filled the peoples’ heads with…

originally planned to have 3,000 rooms (though its numbers has been significantly reduced due to structural constraints and the inclusion of facilities generally expected of five-star hotels) (Peninsularity Ensues). It may have been possible that Kim actually did set out to build the Ministry of…

regulators. Everyone is equal. Everyone who inhabits the community is there to benefit the other. In North Korea, there is no access to cellphones, internet, and similarly to Anthem, even freedom. In North Korea they’re basically dependant on their leader Kim Jong-un. They worship him and focus just on him, very similarly to Anthem. Both rely on their government for resources and to tell them how to live. They only depend on what they classify as “we” and lean on that because they don’t have…

Kim Jung- il would be the first in the dynasty to begin to be extremely hostile. During his reign he had up to 200,000 political prisoners held in concentration camps and strongly repressed all free speech, press/media, and freedom in North Korea. He made him self look like a God to his people and they treated him as such. During his time in power, the North Korean economy plummeted, leaving almost the entire country in famine and poverty. Even with the lack of resources Kim Jung- ils people…

a breakdown in negotiation talks between U.N./U.S.A. officials and the Soviet Union after the end of WWII. From this breakdown two countries emerged, North Korea and South Korea. A leftist communist regime materialized in the North under its leader Kim Il-Sung, and a democratic ideology was pursued in the South with the election of the first South Korean President Lee Sung-Man. For the purpose of the paper I will look at the country that emerged in the South. To do so I read, South Korea Since…

I was eight when I moved to the U.S from Bangladesh. Shortly after I started school, I realized the importance of language. At the time, I knew some English but it was not enough to carry on a conversation. Due to this limitation, I faced hurtful comments and bullying. I realized the necessity of language in social interaction and communication. When I became fluent in English and started making friends, my interaction with my peers changed for the better. I now realize how language can either…

the other orphans and they created their own family. Unfortunately, when the famine and the economic downturn struck North Korea the orphanage was shut down pushing Kim-Hyuk and the other orphans out on the street. They stole whatever food they could in order to survive. Kim-Hyuk defected to China and then he proceeded to South Korea. Kim-Hyuk 's story shows what the lowest class had to endure to survive. They had it worse than all the other classes, and had to do illegal things just to…
