North Korea is the world's most challenging country to escape from! There are only three real escape routes, each of which is more or less challenging! In 1910 Japan occupied the Korean Empire. After the Second World War in 1945, Japan withdrew its troops from Korea and the winning countries of the war, the United States and the Soviet Union, divided Korea in two. The northern part of Korea was controlled by the Soviet Union, while the southern part was controlled by the United States. On September 9, 1948, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea was established in the zone occupied by the Soviet Union. At that time, the general secretary of the Korean Workers' Party, Kim Il-sung, became the country's head of state. At the same time, he declared North Korea a socialist state. After the Korean War, North Korea became an isolated state. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the country was plagued by famine, which is still going on! North Korea's form of government is authoritarian and dissidents are not accepted. The punishment for wrong opinions is transportation to prison camps, where the conditions are terrible! Censorship is present everywhere, and ordinary people don't have the opportunity to access the Internet, for example, and they can't read foreign newspapers. Individual freedom is heavily restricted, and no official human rights inspectors are allowed into the country. It is very difficult to escape from North Korea and the mere attempt to escape is punished in a concentration camp. The death penalty is also possible! Over the years, however, it has been possible to escape from North Korea. In 2017, Oh Ching-song managed to escape through the Korean Demilitarized Zone.
