"North Korea is one of the hardest countries in the world to escape. Theres no freedom of movement. Checkpoints block every major road and guards with AK-47s are always waiting. Along the border soldiers stand with guns ready to shoot posted every XXX meters. Since the early 2000s the number of successful escapes has dropped dramatically. I dream of the day North Korean people can travel freely. What I look forward to the most is telling my friends what freedom feels like. #askanorthkorean #fyp #dprk #northkoreandefector"
