>RevisedNorth Korean defector, grifter, alleged camwhore, consoomer and possible liar.
For those who are her fans; she makes clickbait content about the end of North Korea as well as “top 10 things you can’t do in NK”, or “evil fat dictator Kim Jong-un is dying!!!” while claiming her sources are from former and current NK secret agents yet shows no proof of this.
There are many contradictions about how she escaped North Korea: for example, her Wikipedia article states that she escaped to Mongolia from China as she and her surviving family went undetected by Chinese authorities with the help of Chinese and South Korean Christian missionaries. However, she states that she was being trafficked and sold to a rich Chinese man who financed her escaped to South Korea, not mentioning the missionaries helping her out. Or that her mother contradicted her stories about her father dying in the north when he actually died in China while trying to escape.
She was previously married to an ugly scrote named Ezekiel whom she had a child and but are now divorced as soon as she got her green card. Speaking of which; as of now, she revealed in one of her recent updates that she is now an American citizen.

I don't know wtf it is about her looks but as soon as I saw her and started reading about the grift, I thought…she was or is in a relationship with a white reject. She just looks like she'd shack up with an unwanted white man. His fucking hair. Not that she doesn't look weird as fuck but him? She looks like his carer.

>>1420839>what do you expect her to do? Promote communism?This is a huge part if why Yeonmi is so controversial. The left
hate Yeonmi because ANY environment that heavily censors opinions she will immediately compare to North Korea. She knows for a fact that communism always turns out bad, she has walked the walk in NK whether she was an elite or not. The elites aren't exempt from Kim's lunacy in the slightest. She often says that the American left deal with things in a way that remind her of how NK deal with things. I fully believe the reason she has switched from saying she's liberal to saying shes conservative is because the left she has been exposed to are Amerimutt "libtards" who just wouldn't stop shit flinging about her negative views on communism or for the story about a black woman stealing her purse

I also expect a board director for the Human Rights Foundation not to visit the UAE, a country that openly promotes the sex trafficking of young migrant women and girls.
>>1420810Yeonmi Park and her mother have said they never ate bugs or crickets and were able to eat and afford white rice. Yeonmi grew up during the famine in the 90s and white rice (or any kind of rice) was considered a luxury. Yeonmi was not able to relate to the other defectors because she not poor and was an elite.

four years old.
Though my favorite claim of hers is that when she was famous in South Korea, she was called the Paris Hilton of North Korea. This was because her family was really close to the regime. Video related, her childhood pictures which debunk her parents having been in the working camp. Unless of course work camps have wholesome family picture days.

I finally finished the Joe Rogan pod episode with her. It was 3 hours, but I would listen to it in 20 minute bits, not because it was boring or anything, but because it would start to become 'too much'.
I do believe she escaped, and I believe she was raped, and I believe the main line of her survivor story…I believe North Korea is one big horrific gulag where people eat rats and doctors reuse needles, etc.
But some of what she says is so outrageous that my brain is putting up red flags, but I don't understand why she would lie about such details when just the fact that she escaped North Korea alone is already such an incredible survival feat. She really reminds me of my roommate who has BPD and is a pathological liar who embellishes the details of her stories for no seemingly good reason except to seem more interesting.
I was hoping people in this thread would have more nuance than the Redditors who snap at people for dare questioning a North Korean refugee, but that's the thing. Nobody wants to be the asshole to question it. But grow the fuck up because people DO lie about shit. Like with rape survivors, it's pretty awkward to outright accuse them of lying, because people don't want to believe that someone would lie about that…but we've seen time and time again people lying about horrific trauma just for the 'street cred' per se, attention on social media, etc.
I do believe she was raped though, my point is there are some things that are off. Like when she said she walked through the Gobi Desert for 24 hours in -40 degree Celsius with nothing to eat while already being extremely emaciated and malnourished. I'm sorry, but my intuition finds that very hard to believe. Or when she says in North Korea, there's no word for 'love'…I challenge that.
She also talked about getting recently robbed by 3 black women in Chicago and says there were like 20 bystanders watching the whole thing and calling her racist for trying to call the police. Not even after the fact, but as she was getting robbed people witnessing it were shouting 'racist'…? I understand if it was on the internet but no…I find that story very bizarre.
She says the wokeness she experienced at Columbia was worse than North Korea…I find that quite shocking coming from a North Korea survivor. And that liberal news outlets refused to have her on unless it was to talk bad about Trump? I don't think CNN is THAT terrible.
It's these finer details that make me question everything she says.

>>1427950North Korean defectors are notorious for fabricating stories, especially when there is a financial incentive or severe perceived power imbalance involved, to the point where researchers have to use creative methods in order to approximate the truth about the country; see

It is also very dumb to compare a liberal college to a totalitarian regime, considering one of those doesn't even let you have a voice. I won't comment on any of her stuff on NK since I'm new to her, but it does seem like she's turning this into a grift.

Even if she has family & friends there, how would they communicate with her?
In Rogan's pod, his silence was deafening at times; he knows it's bullshit. But, he wouldn't question her because the outrageousness brings clicks to his channel too, as with all these other lolbertarians she has collab'd with. I notice too when Park began to speak too long and fumble, Rogan would interject and start speaking for her, completing the narrative, and then quickly changing the subject to political correctness, or something more general.

https://cwbchicago.com/2020/08/cops-use-taxi-cab-transaction-to-track-down-mag-mile-robber-prosecutors-say.htmlI've lived in Chicago and do think it is unlikely a mob of white people were calling her racist for calling the police. However if it happened as described in the link, Yeonmi ran to catch up with the robber and confronted her. Maybe the robber & her friends instigated some kind of "you crazy bitch, how dare you!" thing. I have no idea, just thinking about what might have happened.
I believe Yeonmi is a survivor and I hate seeing her get involved with right-wing wackjobs. She escaped a dictatorship and witnessed horrific things. She's a vulnerable person still, and these men are eager to make a buck off of her tragedies, her prettiness, and her articulate speech. If she weren't pretty, if she weren't able to speak well, they would not care about NK much if at all. But Trump also promotes Yeonmi, so that's another reason these chodes want to coopt her.
If she has discrepancies in her stories, gotta say I don't care in this case. Other formerly elite citizens have defected. The author of "The Aquariums of Pyongyang" was part of an elite family until they fell from grace and were sent to labor camps.

NK is full of fake defectors running intelligence ops in different countries at the behest of the current dictatorship. They've been caught and exposed dozens of times in just the last few years alone. All this lady represents is perhaps their boldest attempt in this regard. Consider her endless media tour a way of an insulated country learning how media infrastructure works outside their own propaganda echo chambers so it can be replicated more effectively and efficiently.
It's the same as China cooking up scholarships for students to study abroad but said students are really just being used as operatives to help the CCP stay on top of what universities are progressing in what globally. The same as South Korea being just as totalitarian but strategically amending certain capitalist ideals and modalities making stupid Western countries think they're the more forwardly progressive of the two and just both just the same entity wearing different masks so to speak. It's a new phenomena for the West to deal with but in and of itself is as old as time.

No. 1430521
>>1430432The gain isn't a global reappraisal of North Korea. The crossed that line decades ago, were entirely aware of doing so back then just as they still are now. It's just no longer worthy of anymore time and effort to deceptively cultivate a fake positive image of society over there.
The gain is the infiltration of structures they don't yet possess and haven't yet weaponized, and structures they haven't properly kept up with the times in and cannot effectively weaponize anymore. In other words this woman has been on everything from Spotify to YouTube regarding podcast circles (JRE and Lex Fridman are two very big examples), to The New York Times and dozens of other online and offline publications as well as academic circles such as university talks and even TEDx talks. And that's just in the United States alone.
Understanding how all of these different structures work in modernity, how best to weaponize them not only against their own people but globally as well would the best thing that NK could do as far as intelligence operations go currently, and the easiest way they could do it would be just to send out one of their own with a story most wouldn't want to impeach due to the horrific nature of it and would be easily picked up but news organizations salivating for anything new out of that country especially from a "defector" who "lived it". She opened a door, they let her in, and this is how information about about some things work here you don't want in their hands gets pipelined right out.
It's even better for NK that to things so widely in the public eye because for the most part people naturally want to empathize with the good in others; they don't want to be hyper critical of awful things like stories of this nature and I can't blame anyone for that. It's very difficult to do but it's helpful TO do it because that's just the world we live in now. I feel bad for Koreans overall because they've had to eat a shit sandwich for centuries with this avaricious power dynasties that just look at the common people as a slave caste that they can subjugate with horrors and misery endless for no good reason and no matter who gets in power nothing ever really gets all that much better. So in saying "two sides of the same coin" you are right, unfortunately.

One pretty important detail that I feel should be mentioned here, about the claims she makes
most of the claims she makes aren't actually her own creations, rather they are claims that are taken from south korean tabloids
South korea has a direct stake at vilifying the north and cause north korea is closed off and has no real method of communication with south korean news agencies, any ridiculous claim technically could be right and never refuted
so usually what happens is some south korean tabloid makes up a ridiculous exaggerated claim about practices in north korea, which gets up taken by the mainstream press and then gets translated to English and you get articles like this, I'm sure we've all seen these dumb claims that are all likely fake

Found another possible lie: supposedly, the wife and La Ursupadora (is Hyon Song-wol even his side-chick?) are enemies but they seem to get along well, there’s also footage that all three (her, Ri Sol-ju and Kim Yo-Jong) get along or at least don’t mind the other.

One thing’s for sure, I don’t see her giving her extra money to her fellow countrymen nor has she expressed wanting to help them other than “please US and friends, help free my people from this evil regime!”

I know because I personally know the victims.

The reality most likely is (assuming she's really high class, which idk and idc) that she used her connections and money to escape a fucked up country, to be able to live like a free bitch in a normal free country. She has an outspoken attention whore personality that stands out like a sore thumb, that would have made her a sure target for government violence in North Korea.
Having a fucked up past doesn't mean you'll become a good person, in fact I'd say it makes you much more likely to turn into a cow, so her being a cow doesn't neccesarily mean she's lying about what was done to her.
>>1619527Luckily you don't have to take my word for it because the UN carried out an investigation on government abuse and human rights violations against students, children and civilians in my country, and found evidence of not only sexual violence but also torture, forced dissappearances, unlawful and violent house raids, arbitrary imprisonment of children, among many other things. There's also news reports and pictures everywhere that you can look up for yourself if you're oh so skeptic woke freethinker that you can't fathom the possibility that maybe the very same dictatorship that has been in power for what has been the worst 24 years in modern Venezuelan history could actually be evil???

Here's what her book says about the Paris Hilton thing. I haven't read the rest of her book but this came up in a search. It's pretty well known that tv shows take advantage of vulnerable people and if she was being paid for it (or thought she might make money from it otherwise) it makes sense that she would go along with it since North Koreans have problems getting employment in the south. It's also pretty obvious that a North Korean isn't going to have access to real Chanel (and it made headlines when Kim Jong Un's wife did).
I do think she has exaggerated some things intentionally but I don't think her overall story is a lie.

Honestly if she wants us to feel sorry for anyone in tubby’s family, it would probably be his kids. For awhile now, Big Kim’s been dragging his daughter out to missile launches, military photo-ops/parades, etc. while making her pose showing affection to him in a creepy manner. Meanwhile, his bitch wife who’s totally a ~poor victim uwu~ does nothing, allows this and accepts being in the background because she has her own agenda to uphold regarding Kim and their children; it’s evident she’s the type to put her husband over her own children’s comfort.

>>1812038>>1812143nta but when the sanctions
triggered food shortages in NK they just opened the border with china so people could ferry whatever they needed back and forth. Over time they built up enough that China has basically replaced the other aid programs and floats NK through droughts and whatever else. They don't accept aid from the US over the last few decades because of the tendency for countries to use NGOs as cover for their intelligence agencies. So Yeonmi is a huge bullshitter, but they don't want or need her help.
