Playtime Comments : [TED] This is what it's like to go undercover in North Korea | Suki Kim

Lo*********:

7:09 This made me tear up a bit, not gonna lie. She’s a great teacher and I’m sure they’ll never forget her. I’m beyond lucky to live in Europe.

iw***************:

2:21: "North Korea is a gulag posing as a nation." Yup.

Mi*****:

The ironic thing about humanity is that we are a brilliant species capable of such incredible advancements in life, but historically are forced to limit ourselves via “great leaders”. At 6:29 when she talks about her assignment to write a personal letter and those North Korean men start pouring their hearts out, that’s raw humanity.

Top Comments : [TED] This is what it's like to go undercover in North Korea | Suki Kim

Vi****:

I imagine how in a near future, when North Korea's opressive regime has fallen and they are integrated in the WWW, Suki's gentlemen stumble uppon this talk.

Ko*****:

This was a really interesting talk~

Zu**********:

We landed to the moon
We saw the 1st BlackHole image
.
.
Only thing remaining is the freedom of North Korea

Sh*********:

It all started with kpop, getting interests in koreans, crash landing on you and boom im here

br********:

Remember when Anonymous gave Egypt the internet so they could become free? Okay, how do we do this? Let's go

Ju**************:

This made me cry my eyes out. This situation is unbearable I just feel so helpless and immensely sorry for all the North Korean victims...

Ab******:

And those kids will never know.....that they had a teacher who knew everything..

La*********:

I didn't think this was going to make me cry but her letter, her encouraging them to be strong so they can survive, broke me

AC******:

I read her book! “Without you, there is no us”, It was so good, I completely recommend it.

Wi*********:

"And I hope instead that you, my lovely young gentlemen, will one day make it beautiful."
Truly powerful words... Yet it's so bittersweet.

Ma*******:

This is the world George Orwell was warning us about in 1984.

It************:

Whenever i hear something about the people in North Korea, my heart is always bleeding, i really feel sorry for these people who really never know what life is. Prayers for you guys. Love you all!

mi**********:

I just read her book, it's pretty good. I suggest everyone reads it.

Co**********:

this is so beautiful. the end had me in tears...

do******:

When N Korea falls, it will be really interesting to learn their secrets

ko***********:

For all the hackers out there, you should hack North Korea’s P.A system and broadcast this ted talk to everybody so they can hear the truth. It’s the age of awakening and it’s time that all people walk amongst each others land, not in separate armies

ga*******:

The background music is very annoying and distracting.
Also - life is risk, not safety

Fu*********:

this was so beautiful. Communism is such a prison of the mind, and you were able to free them in the most subtle of ways. God bless you

Je*********:

My husband joined the army and my one fear is that he will end up stationed near the DMZ like my dad was

Yo******:

“If my attempts to reach you have inspired something new in you, I would rather you forget me.” That line gave me chills.
It’s so sad. She wants North Korea to be free, but she doesn’t want her gentlemen to be the ones to set it free. She’s too afraid they’d die. She would rather they live under a tyranny than die in a failed insurrection.

Fe****:

This is a good talk, but serious talks should never have soundtracks.

When someone puts music behind their words, it always smacks of trying to manipulate the listener's emotions sub-consciously, which is exactly the kind of 1984-esque trickery we hate about North Korea.

Ca********:

That was a beautiful and powerful speech she gave. It was so emotional that i almost cry

Ja***********:

Just imagine. None of them have pets like we do, no posters for their room, no concerts, their "idol" is their leader, they won't ever be able to go to the movies and see a movie about san andreas, or suicide squad. They'll never have freedom of speech or wear clothes they like, they'll never be able to watch their favorite show cos they won't ever have a favorite. No freedom. And even if they want freedom, they put their families in danger as well as themselves. They cannot have their own thoughts, they can't speak their mind, nor have any information about the outside world. When I found out the movie the interview was banned there, I thought they were just butthurt. But they didn't want to have their citizens find the truth and lead a rebelion.

sh*****:

This talk was amazing, but the music is SO DISTRACTING.

le******:

Why is everyone complaining about the music?? Seriously, I was so focused in on what she was saying and the story that came with it, I hardly even noticed it. If you find it that distracting, put it on mute and read subtitles.

am**********:

2019 and dictatorship!...I never thought this could be a thing till I found out about north Korea..I hope north Korea gets its freedom and develope
s as a Democratic country

no*****:

The end is so deep like...she rather have her dear students live in boring ignorance for the rest of their lives rather than put them at risk because she knows full well a handful of teenagers are not capable of overthrowing a dictatorship. she was just trying to protect them. very bittersweet

So**********:

N.K really is....a strange and terrible place.
its almost like another planet

VL******:

“...when you are not allowed to express anything in open, you become good at reading what is unspoken...”

Da*********:

Computer majors who don't know that The Internet excists! Mindblowing!

Qu****************:

“I would rather you forget me” i felt that

el******:

I really hope these kids will see freedom within their lifetimes.

Dr***********:

I sobbed when she said her students should forget her if she inspired something new in them for the sake their safety. That's just...awful that neither the teacher and student can enjoy LEARNING from each other without the real fear of death.

...Suki Kim needs to call a lawyer to talk about movie rights. Her story needs to be told around the world!

To***************:

One of my lifetime wishes is to see the end of the current North Korea and get to see the start of a new and better one.

Ma****************:

I've been watching videos like this alot these days. I want to write a story about someone's journey on escaping North Korea. It'll take a lot of time, research, and effort but I'm going to try. It may be hard for someone like me (I'm 12 and rather busy with school, maintaining good grades and all this stuff on the council and continuing as an art major). These stories really hit me hard. I realized that all of my complaining about slow wifi and crappy food is pointless and rather selfish compared to what all these other people around the world are going through. My sincere love and prayers to all the people out there suffering! xoxo

Me***:

I live in South Korea, and just the other day we went to the Demilitarized Zone(the border from South and North Korea). Our tour guide was telling us a bunch of informations and facts about N. and S. Korea. And she was also telling us her personal opinions. I could see the hurt and pain in her eyes whenever she talks about the N. Koreans, and the anger in her eyes when she talk about their leader. But she also told us how the young adults here in S korea dont really want unification anymore, because it would cause them both problems and money which sucks! When I used a telescope to look into North Korea, I couldn't see any person, but they built a fake village so the people in the border would think that they are well and good, but it's just so sad that they even think that we would belive that. I feel sorry for their people, who dont know that their are people out of their country that pity them, and they might never know how awful their land truly is. I hope someday these two countries will unite and give freedom to those who are stuck there. Hopefully the new S. Korean president will fulfill his promises of going to N korea and try to unite these two countries.

Yu****:

During my semester in China, we had North Korean students at the university. They were all wearing this little button of the leader? (Not sure how it is called). They only stuck to each other and would never speak to any other student. We didn't understand why these students wouldn't break free (because technically the 'modern world' was now open to them). My friend told me that these kids were super privileged and from rich families with power, they will be the next generation of elites. That was really sad.
