My Escape from North Korea (Ted Talk)
Students discuss and read about North Korea and then watch the TED talk "My escape from North Korea" https://www.ted.com/talks/hyeonseo_lee_my_escape_from_north_korea
"As a child growing up in North Korea, Hyeonseo Lee thought her country was “the best on the planet.” It wasn´t until the famine of the 90s that she began to wonder. She escaped the country at 14, to begin a life in hiding, as a refugee in China. Hers is a harrowing, personal tale of survival and hope — and a powerful reminder of those who face constant danger, even when the border is far behind."
I used subtitles when I showed it, because the speaker´s accent can be difficult to understand at times.
