[HOW WOULD YOU ESCAPE NORTH KOREA? (THE 7 CHOICES)]
If you were living in North Korea right now - trying to survive on a diet of rats, grass, soil and tree bark, quenching your thirst by drinking out of mud puddles in the ground - what would you do?
There's also the conceivable chance of being sent to a political prison camp for years on end just because you innocently thought out loud one day to a bunch of friends (North Korean propaganda is strong), where you are then beaten, tortured, and left so hungry that you are forced to dig and consume the grains out of faeces, or the maggots from dead bodies just so you have the energy to perhaps last one more day.
You'd probably wanna escape. But how?
The North Korean government in Pyongyang refuses to let its citizens leave, a clear violation of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, viewing North Korean defectors as traitorous criminals. Captured North Koreans would be subject to unimaginable torture and often public executions.
If they are successful in their escape, then three to four generations of their family back home would be sent to North Korean prison camps to rot ....or worse. This is a strong deterrent.
But this still doesn't stop desperate North Koreans from tempting fate. In this video, I'll go over the seven ways to escape the DPRK, including the most dangerous, the most unforgiving, the most unique, and the most unexpected.
The North Korean border on the south side (ie. South Korean border / Korean DMZ) is the shortest distance to travel for safety and stability but as a result, the regime makes it dangerously hard. A North Korean escapee can be shot down by North Korean soldiers (border guards) or step on the many landmines in the area.
The northern border to China has it's own set of challenges. Most North Korean refugees escape through this way, usually crossing the Tumen River border (like the famous North Korean defector Hyeonseo Lee). Once in China, the nightmare doesn't end there.
There are also other, more unconventional ways you can try to escape such as through North Korean labor camps.
Even if you make it to safety and resettle in a stable country, the North Korean regime will still try to hunt you down, so you're never truly safe. Especially if you're an outspoken critic or a threat to Kim Jong-un's power - just ask his half brother, Kim Jong-nam.

The Takeuchi highway (Of excellence very) is toward from Osaka Prefecture Sakai City to the east, exceeds the south foot and Takeutitouge of Mt. Nijo-san, and is a highway of about 26km to the vicinity of the Nagao Shinto shrine of the Nara Prefecture Katsuragi city.
The section to the vicinity of the Takeuchi village from the swan intersection in Habikino City to the Katsuragi city is structure and a history from which most the districts are specified for No.166 in the national road.
* The Takeuchi highway is the oldest "Miti" in Japan recorded in the article of Nohonshoki of 21 years (613 years) in Empress Suiko, "A large road (uncle) from Nanba to the capital (Asuka) is put". The majority comes in succession in a present Takeuchi highway with Miti in the Empress Suiko age. The east side is connected with the Mitiyoco Main Street where the southern part of the Nara basin is crossed from east to west. It was called Himiti () before. Because Hino is crossed, it is presumed to be given of the name. It is understood to see the article on the Ten July 1 of the first year , saying that "A great number of multi of the war arrives from Miti at the association discernment if the west is faced and seen ..Otsu and ratio.. ..both.. drinking..", and to have been used also for the war of Monkey, and is presumed that it is Takeuchi highway with the Nagao highway.
* It is thought that this road was an east and west road to which the Furuichi old tomb group and the shrike bird old tomb group almost run in the center part, and the road where two old tomb groups tie. It is thought that it was constructed delaying behind the Nagao highway. Moreover, it touches the part forward at the edge of the southeast in the Oyama old tomb in yen part and it will go after the Honda Mt. old tomb south end if this highway is extended from east to west as a straight road. In a word, it is understood that these two huge old tombs are made on the north latitude line on the map.
* It seems that there was already traffic of considerable people because a lot of ruins in the mausoleum grave and the old tomb, etc. spent in the fifth century in the fourth century remained in the west foot (present Osaka Prefecture Taishi-cho) in Mt. Nijo-san though it is about beginning of the seventh century to be maintained as Miti as shown in the above-mentioned.
* Yatsca envoy and the monk of going abroad to study come and go in the Asuka age, and the culture from the continent to China and Korea is brought, and it is and of the Asuka culture.
* It continues partially of the Ise highway in the Middle Ages, and No.166 in the national road is going now. Therefore, the Takeuchi highway will be being used as a highway between the Asuka age and present.
* Matsuo Basho lived in the Takeuchi village in the route for a certain period of time in Edo period. There is Watayumitsca of the Basho monument there, and it is maintained as a park now.
