From the heartbreaking loss of his sister to the stifling control over thoughts and expressions, Justin recounts his early life in North Korea, comparing it to living in a prison. He provides profound insights into the indoctrination and constant fear that North Koreans endure, including the dire consequences of speaking against the government.

We'll explore the stark contrast between life in North Korea and the freedoms enjoyed elsewhere, the deceptive mirroring of Christian practices by the North Korean regime, and the struggle to maintain faith in such an oppressive environment. Prepare to be moved as Justin dissects the false reality created by the Kim regime and his journey towards finding truth and freedom.
