The Girl with Seven Names
I am curious about the most isolated, most remote country in the world - North Korea, because people in there are seemingly living in an alternate world where the humans are behaving in an out-of-the-world manner. My curiosity peaked when Kim Jong-nam was murdered in KLIA2, and so when I saw The Girl With Seven Names, written by a North Korean defector, in MPH, I bought it despite its exorbitant price. The book is eye-opening, and the content was mind-f*cking. I cannot comprehend why North Korea could do such animalish, brutal, demoralising and demeaning to their people. North Koreans are so brainwashed that the knowledge they have defied all common logic and understanding. The dictators in North Korea would rather sacrifice the lives of 20+ million North Koreans to survive its iron-grip rule on the nation. Lee Hyeonseo is a valiant, brave girl who escaped North Korea and went through obstacles to bring her families out of that despicable nation. The book is awesome and breathtaking. I cannot actually believe that what I read was an actual happening to the girls. It must be heartbreaking and physically and psychologically tiring (to live in such fear). But all efforts have paid well. Anyway, this is a good news. Please read it if you haven't. Please read it to raise the awareness of the unparalleled human rights violation in North Korea, and please read it to spread the awareness that North Koreans need the world's help. North Koreans deserve to live as a human being with basic human rights, not to be brainwashed and become slaves of the dictator.
