About this listen

In our debut episode, we sit down and look at the life and works of North Korean celebrity defector Yeonmi Park and talk about the lives of North Korean defectors in order to answer our burning questions: Does North Korea have no concept of love? Is America a woke communist hellhole run by capitalists? And most importantly: can we stan Yeonmi’s grift?
