Men who can’t cook, clean, or even do their own laundry are not “cute” and “in need of a woman to care for them”. They are spoiled brats so dependent on gender roles that they never bothered to learn the minimal skills to take care of themselves.

Seriously regardless of your gender, you should know how to cook, clean and do your own laundry. Or else you’re going to be up shit creek without a paddle for the rest of your life.

Escaping from North Korea in search of freedom: Yeonmi Park tells her story of life in North Korea and calls for action against such human rights violators.

Yeonmi was speaking at the One Young World Summit 2014 in Dublin.

I have to do this because this is not just I am speaking… This is for the people who want to tell the world what they want to say.

North Korea is an unnatural country. There is only one channel on TV and there is no internet. We aren’t free to sing, say, wear or think what we want.

North Korea is the only country in the world that executes people for making unauthorized international phone calls.

North Koreans are being terrorized today.

When I was growing up in North Korea, I never saw anything about love stories between man and woman, no books, no songs, no press, no movies about love stories. There is no Romeo and Juliet, every stories were propagandized to brainwash about the Kim dictators.

I was born in 1993 and I was abducted at birth even before I knew the words ‘freedom’ or ‘human rights’. North Koreans are desperately seeking and dying for freedom at this moment…

When I was 9 years old, I saw my friend’s mother publicly executed. Her crime? Watching a Hollywood movie!

Expressing doubt about the regime can get 3 generations of whole family imprisoned or executed.

When I was 4 years old, I was warned by my mother, not to even whisper, the birds and mice could hear me. I admitted it. I thought the North Korean dictator could read my mind. My father died in China after we escaped North Korea. And I have to bury him at 3 am in secret. I was only 14 years old. I couldn’t even cry, I was afraid to be sent back to North Korea.

The day I escaped North Korea, I saw my mother raped. The rapist was a Chinese broker. He had targeted me. I was only 13 years old. There is a saying in North Korea, “Women are weak, but mothers are strong”. My mother allowed herself to be raped in order to protect me.

North Korean refugees, about 300,000 are roaming over in China. 70 percent of North Korean women and teenage girls are being victimized and sometimes sold for as a little as 200 dollars. We walked across the Gobi desert following a compass and when it stopped working, we followed the stars to freedom. I felt only the stars are with us. Mongolia was our freedom moment.

Death or dignity; I was with the knife, we were prepared to kill ourselves if we are going to be send back to North Korea. We wanted to live as humans…

People often ask me, “How can we help North Koreans?”. There are many ways but I would like to mention 3 for now.

One, as you care yourself, you can raise awareness about human crisis in North Korea.

Two, help and support North Korean refugees who are trying to escape for freedom.

Three, petition China to stop repatriation.

We have to shed the light in the darkest place in the world. It is not just North Korean human rights, it is our rights!

The North Korean dictators have violated for 7 decades. We need governments all around the world to put more pressure on China to stop repatriation. In particular, Chinese delegates of ‘One Young World’ can play a part by speaking up. North Korea is indescribable… No human deserves to be oppressed just because of their birthplace. We need to focus less on the regime and more on the people who are being forgotten.

‘One Young World’, we are the ones who will make them visible. Please join me as we make this a global movement to free North Koreans. When I was crossing the Gobi desert, scared of dying, I thought nobody in this world cared. It seemed that only the stars were with me…

But you have listened to my story. You have cared…Thank you very much.

저는 이 연설을 해야 합니다. 이 연설은 자신들의 처지를 호소하고자 하는 사람들을 위한 것입니다. 북한은 비정상적인 국가입니다. TV에는 오직 하나의 채널만 있고 인터넷은 아예 없습니다. 저희는 원하는 대로 자유롭게 노래하지도, 말하지도, 옷 입지도, 생각하지도 못합니다. 북한은 허가하지 않은 국제전화를 했다는 이유로 처형이 이뤄지는 전세계 유일한 국가입니다. 북한 주민들은 현재 공포에 떨고 있습니다. 제가 북한에서 자랄 때 책, 노래, 언론, 영화에서 남자와 여자 사이의 사랑이야기에 관해서 전혀 접하지를 못했습니다. 북한에 로미오와 줄리엣은 없습니다. 모든 이야기들은 김일성-김정일-김정은 독재자들은 찬양하도록 세뇌하는 선전물로 변질됩니다. 저는 자유 혹은 인권이라 단어를 알기도 전인 1993년, 태어나자마자 유괴를 당했습니다. 북한 주민들은 지금 이순간에도 자유를 처절하게 갈망하고 있습니다. 제가 9살일 때 일입니다. 저는 제 친구의 어머니가 공개처형 당하는 것을 목격했습니다. 그녀의 죄명이요? 할리우드 영화를 봤다는 것이었습니다! 북한에서는 북한 정권에 대한 불신을 표현하는 것만으로 3대 가족 전체가 수감되거나 처형당하게 됩니다. 제가 4살 때 어머니에게 경고를 들은 적이 있습니다. 속삭이지도 말라고… 낮말은 새가 듣고 밤말은 쥐가 듣는다고… 저는 인정했습니다. 저는 북한의 독재자가 제 마음을 읽을 수 있는 줄 알았습니다. 제 아버지는 북한을 탈출한 후 중국에서 돌아가셨습니다. 14살 밖에 안되었던 저는 새벽 3시에 몰래 아버지를 묻어 드려야 했습니다. 저는 북한에 송환되는 것이 두려워 울 수도 없었습니다. 북한을 탈출한 첫 날, 저희 어머니는 강간을 당하셨습니다. 강간범은 중국인 브로커였습니다. 그는 처음에는 13살인 저를 범하려 했습니다. 북한에는 이런 말이 있습니다. “여자는 약하지만 어머니는 강하다” 제 어머니는 저를 보호하기 위해 기꺼이 자신이 강간당하도록 하였습니다. 중국에는 30만명에 달하는 탈북자들이 떠돌고 있습니다. 여기서 여성들과 10대 소녀들 중에 70퍼센트는 범죄의 대상이 되거나 고작 200달러에 팔려가고 있습니다. 저희 가족들이 고비사막을 횡단할 때 나침반을 따라갔었습니다. 나침반이 고장나자 저희는 별을, 바로 ‘자유로 향하는 별’을 따라갔습니다. 오직 별들만이 저희와 함께한다고 느껴졌습니다. 죽느냐 존엄성을 지키느냐… 저는 칼을 한 자루 가지고 다녔습니다. 만약 북한으로 송환되는 상황이 닥치면 저희는 스스로 목숨을 끊을 준비가 되어있었습니다. 저희는 사람답게 살고 싶었습니다… 사람들은 종종 저에게 묻습니다. “어떻게 하면 북한 주민들을 도울 수 있나요?” 여기에는 많은 방법들이 있는데 오늘은 3가지만 말씀 드리고 싶습니다. 첫째, 여러분이 자신을 돌보듯이 북한에서의 인권 유린에 대한 관심을 더욱 가져주세요. 둘째, 자유를 향해 탈출을 시도하는 탈북자들을 돕고, 지원을 해주세요. 셋째, 중국당국으로 하여금 송환을 멈추도록 청원을 넣어주세요. 우리는 세계에서 가장 어두운 곳에 빛을 비춰 주어야 합니다. 이는 북한 주민들의 인권만을 위한 것이 아니라 우리 모두의 인권을 위한 일입니다! 북한의 독재 정권은 70년 동안이나 잔혹한 통치를 해왔습니다. 중국으로 하여금 탈북자 송환을 멈추도록 전세계의 정부들이 더욱 압력을 가해야 합니다. 그리고 특히, 오늘 제가 참여하고 있는 ‘One Young World(세계 젊은 지도자 회의)’의 중국 대표들이 이에 대해 목소리를 높임으로서 하나의 역할을 할 수 있습니다. 현재의 북한은 형언할 수 조차 없을 정도로 참혹합니다… 어떠한 사람도 자신의 출생지 때문에 억압을 받아서는 안됩니다. 우리는 북한 정권에 대한 관심을 줄이고 잊혀지고 있는 사람들에 대해 더욱 관심을 가져야 합니다. ‘One Young World(세계 젊은 지도자 회의)’의 우리들, 우리들이 이러한 것을 실현 가능하게 만들 수 있습니다. 북한 주민들을 자유롭게 하는 이 전세계적인 움직임에 저와 함께 해주세요. 제가 죽을까 두려워하며 고비 사막을 건널 때, 세상 아무도 저를 신경쓰지 않는다고 생각했습니다. 오직 별들만이 저와 함께인 것 같았습니다… 하지만 여러분들은 제 이야기를 들어주셨습니다… 정말 감사합니다.

Why is this the first post that contains her entire speech? This is not just a recounting of all the horrible things that happened to her, this is an explanation of the regime she lived under and a call to the rest of the world for action. If you don’t reblog the beginning and end you’re completely missing the point.
