The problem of these North Korea defectors still exists, I can not imagine what the life will be if I were in the concentration camp in North Korea, but I absolutely believe what Shin said. My father works for the army in China, because of his special job he is never allowed to come to America to see me, even my mom can only come to America to see me for over one week, otherwise my parents will sent to the jail. My life in China is just like a life of prisoner, my family don’t have any choices but accept it. I cannot compare my life with Shin’s experience, because they are really incomparable, I would just say that I could totally understand and accept Shin’s story.
