My Life as a North Korean Defector

As recent first-hand accounts regarding the conditions in North Korea remain extremely limited, this talk will give the Duke community an opportunity to meet and hear the stories of two North Korean defectors. Our guest speakers, Sam Kim and Bomhyang Lee, are students currently living in South Korea. They will be providing important insight into various topics ranging from the social and political structure to daily life in North Korea. Since it is difficult to come in contact with North Korean refugees in the US, this talk will serve as a rare opportunity for Duke students to ask questions and develop a deeper understanding of a very serious global issue. Come early! Light refreshments will be served!
