Top Comments : [TED] What I learned as a prisoner in North Korea | Euna Lee

De*****:

This is the example, of kindness and love , you're amazing

Sc************:

They were not her enemies. They are ALL prisoners there.

Su*****************:

Who just watched ted vids for 3 hours instead of studying

Edit: omg thanks for all the likes

Mo*********:

When we think of North Korea, we think of all the bad things. But it is important to remember that all the bad things are from the face of the government that isn't even by the people. The government consists of one man's idea over the whole country. Its unfortunate that so many innocent people are born into this and many brainwashed into thinking that system is right. At least we learn that even then, there are people with minimal humanity. It's just sad that this isn't always the case.

Mo********:

Her story touched me. I actually cried and I never cry.

Ul***************:

Wow, what a moving story!!! Thank you for sharing!!

Ak*****:

all NK people are prisoners of kim jong uns administration

Bu************:

Egg man and Guard "B" are the hope of North Korea. I sincerely hope that the citizens of the north, one day, are free.

du******:

North Korea is a place.

North Koreans are people.

Their leader is a monster.

S*:

How did it end with her sentence?? She said she was sentenced to 12 years of labor camp but was also in Korean prison for 140 days... so what happened? How did she get out??

Sa*********:

Humanity

lo*********:

“We all bleed red blood.” I often find myself saying these words I lie of my confusion over conflict. Why do we fight each other? We all behavior the same beautiful green planet. We are not one nation against another. We are the humans with the primary goal of survival. One race, the human race, living on one planet, Earth.

Sp**********:

Being a child in South Korea made me so thankful for what the Americans had done in the 50's.

As an adult, I'm even more grateful. It's sad to see that what worked for us, did not also work for Vietnam or Iraq. Both, having the opportunity to create their own capitalist democracies, failed. Now I eat Vietnamese rice while they buy South Korean electronics and vehicles.

Ro************:

"When we begin to see people as evil it is us that becomes the enemy." Lao-tzu Tao ta Ching the book of the way. What this means is when we in our minds begin to see people as evil there is no action we will not justify which often will lead to us becoming the monsters.

Ve************:

I wonder how she was let out after being sentenced to 12 years of labour camp

Ch******************************************:

Thank you for sharing this powerful and much-needed concept: in the end we are all human beings who aren't that different from each other!

Ch********:

North Korean people cannot be equatable to their evil and corrupt government. They are victims too. I hope that one day, Korea can reunify peacefully and all these people can be free.

An*******:

This is absolutely beautiful.

Is**********:

"When dictatorship is a fact, revolution is a duty"—Amadeu de Prado.

Me**********:

I learned to stay out of N. Korea.
Thank you for sharing.

Is******:

She doesn't mention the torture, starvation and living conditions. She purely focuses on her powerful message. Made me proud to be a South Korean again.

Li**:

It's high time for the world to realize that no people would ever willingly choose a tyrannic government for themselves...

Ge*************:

I'm glad she made it back to give a Ted talk. Otto Warmbier wasn't so lucky.

El**********:

This is truly incredible

ge**************:

My life now seem useless.....I wouldn't mind dying to unite the world.

Ju********:

People forget, there is a huge difference between a people and a government. I would hate for anyone to equate myself with the government of my country, i have nothing to do with them. N Koreans have even less to do with theirs.

El********:

Excellent perspective and insight. Thank you for sharing!

Th**********:

Amazing thought: Humans just like us.
I feel so heartbroken to hear your story. The so-called enemies really need the justice. I hope North Korean would be as happy as you South Korean. God bless!

De**********:

Thank you, Euna---for telling us what is going on in places that we seldom hear about.
The Internet allows us to comprehend and acknowledge events that we are unaware of.
It is not just the circumstances...it is the PEOPLE- like yourself. Your story allows us to
be educated, empathize, and realize how precious life is- and people, like yourselves are.
Thank you for your talk.

Wh**********:

I wish and I hope one day north Korean people will live the way as we enjoy our freedom today without shedding a single blood. North Korean people deserve to be freed. Base on different dockumentary I've seen they are one of the most gentle loving and hardworking people in thise planet. They deserve love and freedom.

Ju*********:

yesterday CNN gaped at the beautiful lady from NK, she s some kind of emissary for the Olympic games, they went like: "that Movie Star"., Def, if you look at them bimbo lineup at CNN, every woman is a superstar compared to them

Ai**********:

She couldn't leave her friend. What a brave and loyal friend. Not even 3 min in to the video and she has my utmost respect.

fr****:

I would like to hear the stories of caged children on US Mexico border

Ho*************:

Who’s here after the emails were leaked of her and Laura child trafficking

ca***********:

Remember Otto Warmbier in your prayers tonight. All he did was take a poster.

Mm*:

If she was sentenced to 12 years labour work, I wonder how she left?

Ki**********:

Man, I got goosebumps. She must have felt so helpless in that situation, it's terrifying.

Ha******:

My Dad was in the 2nd I.D. And 82nd Airborne during the Korean War. I often asked him to share his experiences with me. The one story he would always tell me was about a North Korean child (about 12 yrs old) who would come up to their camp atop a huge mountain and offer to do their laundry and clean up around their living quarters. At first, they were all suspicious. After a short while the men began to trust and grow quite fond of him. They would tip him and provide him with food for his family. It was, in my Dads words, the right thing to do as they saw a child in need and not the enemy. This experience made most of the men in my Dads company very uncomfortable about the war and changed their perspective about much of it. He became the mascot of the camp and when the armistice was called, they gave him gifts and took pictures with him as the boy cried that his "friends" we're leaving. So did my Father and his men. Barriers broken, even if in the smallest way.

Jo*********:

It is incredibly important to separate the North Korean people and the North Korean government. Especially as the North Korean Government makes big threats against the US. The NK people are the NK government's first and worst victims. They have to live under NK government rule.

Nor is Ms. Lee's experience unique. Around Christmas one year in World War 1, both sides called a halt to the fighting. Before long soldiers from both sides were playing games like volleyball in No Man's Land. During the American Civil War, scouts for armies on both sides were known to play cards with each other.

It is also good to remember that Ms. Lee got kindness from some people in North Korea, but got none from the government. The NK government is still a genuine enemy to South Korea and the US even though its people are not, or need not be.

Al*******:

I read a book that she was in. It wasn't focused too much on her, but she was in it occassionally. It's called "Somewhere Inside" and right away, I figured out that the book had to do with her. But at some points, that thought vanished because some things didn't line up, however that's only because her point of view wasn't mentioned as often as her journalist partner, Laura Ling (or Lisa Ling, it's been a while since I've read it), it was solely based on the sisters, Laura and Lisa, responses between letters and diary entries. To me, there seemed to be about 4 or 5 entries for Euna, but yet, that could be wrong since I haven't read it in a while. Originally, the book was tossed out by my mom who didn't ask me if I wanted it with me being a bookworm. I happened to be on trash duty and since the trash was just filled with papers and other unnecessary items from her room, I dug it out since I looked at the bag and just saw the book. Honestly, I could imagine everything that went on because of reading the book, like I know I'm more than likely not imagining it as worse as it really was but yea. :c
