in north korea. >> guest: yes. north korea, we know it is the darkest place on earth. we don't have electricity, automobiles for anything to work in the farm. individuals cannot own things socially and we don't own house or anything. it's all owned by the state. so cows belong to state, and there was a man who had tv, he ate the cow on the farming is executed. some of the cows you need permission, sometimes i cow dies from the disease or it's too old and dies, sometimes it's distributed to people. i never knew, like i never had a stake. never knew what that was. >> host: what do you remember about making the decision to defect from north korea? >> guest: that i did was for him when i was more early 2000, that when things were very bad in my family. we were not able to find food and it was a string. >> host: when you talk about not finding food, would you go days or a day without eating? >> guest: it's like sometimes you have food every day, sometimes, i remember one day we had many days without food.

and north korea where does this leave relations between the u.s. and south korea. in a difficult place also because it's important to be aware that while the u.s. and north korea is obviously a very key new relationship good or bad of the nuclear issues or some most important issues these are not the only things going on there's also the most criminally gets fences with china approach with bracket not for this purpose but it all started with south korea i was all spurious outreach to south korea for the olympics and really south korea has been the kind of go between south korea currently on the left of center government that believes in engaging will spray which many conservatives do believe and now move jay in of south korea he's supposed to be going to coming out for a third summit in september that's going to be pretty difficult now so it's kind of who but there are some in washington who say south korea is getting out of line i reject that the u.s. i think south korea obviously is uniquely placed because of the tragic division of the country and i think there a

as a matter of fact, north korea has been telling south korea, if united states and south korea do noty strategic assets, they are willing to tolerate our annual combined military exercise and training. therefore, i understand in that way, not just in suspending -- stopping the war games. >> okay. so, now let's flip it a little bit. your president has called it historic. he praised both leaders. and many in the alliance have said, including in europe and japan and elsewhere that this is a really important moment. so what do you think the steps will be going forward? for instance, in the declaration, united states named secretary of state mike pompeo as their chief negotiator. the north koreans haven't named anybody. i mean, you'd think they would have had the opportunity to think about it. these apparently were points that were drumd up way before the summit. does that say anything to you? why would they have named somebody to meet with secretary of state pompeo? >> understandable. up until now it was an ad hoc situation for north korea. that's why dim jong-un was handling this issue.

i was last korea's outreach to south korea for the olympics and really south korea has been a kind of go between south korea count me on the left of center government the believes in engaging will spray which many conservatives do believe and now move jay in of south korea he's supposed to be going to coming out for a third summit in september that's going to be pretty difficult now so it's kind of hope but there are some in washington who think south korea's getting out of line i reject that the u.s. i think south korea oversea is uniquely placed because of the tragic division of the country and i think there are a lot of to see there any gender and a basic you know my well i think they ought to seeing their own agenda so it's all getting a bit tricky so we also have another announcement from the u.s. on friday washington also abruptly canceled a planned trip to north korea by secretary of state by compare north korea has warned that the talks are at risk of falling apart is the peace process on rattling . it is slightly on the raveling i mean the problem all alone with the trump sig

this comes at a critical time in our relations with south korea.american and south koreans must remember the sacrifice not only of americans but others in the un command who came to the rescue of south korea in 1950. you have a south korean president was more prone north korea than anything else. i don't know this very much we can do about him but for the rest of the south korean electorate it is a struggle for hearts and minds and this is important. jillian: you referenced something commander brooks said, this brings them one step closer to the end of their journey. look at the numbers and the fact that over the course of three years, 1950-1953, 36,940 americans were killed, 92,000 were wounded, 8000 still listed as unaccounted for. put yourself in the situation of those family members, people who still don't have answers. how important is it the united states stand strong and continue to fight for this? >> this is critical because if the us doesn't do this another nation will. we have 7697 unaccounted for. we believe there are 5300 in north korea

is this gray, is no color in north korea. in my memory, everything is gray. that's how my childhood was like. starving and hungry and desperate and scared that even the birds and mice can hear me and that's the first thing my mom taught me, don't even whisper because the birds and mice going to hear me. but despite that i think the most important thing was the family to me. that i feel like thinking back my childhood, i was loved and i was cherished in my household. >> host: where yours family sister, mother, father today? >> guest: my father died from the colon cancer he got in prison in north korea. >> host: where did he die? >> guest: in china. >> host: in china. >> guest: before the -- 2008, and my mother in south korea in the countryside, and i got unite my solder sister who we were separated for seven years, and she is in south korea, studying university now, and i am in america so we have freedom. >> host: raw citizen? >> guest: no, i'm not. i'm a permanent resident. and, yes. >> host: are you going to go for your citi

to defect from north korea? in the early 2000. that we could not buy food. >> when you talk about not finding food would you go days without eating? >> sometimes you have food every day or many days without food so we had one or two potatoes that day. so that is that i was having. and then running out of those frozen potatoes. but the regime would choose to start and then we would be shelling selling sugar or coffee and then you could find other things and like then we would catch the grasshoppers that would be a source of protein for me. everybody is looking for food. b9. [inaudible] >> okay. tell me about the decision-making process to get out of the country connect that decision-making process i do not have internet or know what is happening. so the advantage that i have on the border town of north korea so i could see the electricity coming out of china. and then i had no idea. and that so i don't die from starvation. >> what you remember about seeing the light? what do you remember seeing the light and fire

working with north korea has been made a little bit more difficult north korea however says that in the past week of this it just from last week it says that it has stopped all nuclear missile tests its dismantled its nuclear underground test ground and returned remains of some u.s. soldiers which is some of the demands that the u.s. made so it's saying look we're doing everything that the u.s. wants we're trying to push forward here but then you hear michael bolton saying there's something very very different at the michael ball john bolton oh my god when it's the singer there for a second but again you know korea the if anybody can make an impact here it would be south korea these countries are literally next to each other it's one in the same the same culture the same people and so they are the ones that really have the reins here in this in this situation and now what's happening in september is that moon will meet with kim jong un again for the third time which is a huge in itself they're hoping to push this forward even that's minuscule things like when we think you know oh my

or north korea for that matter. and in public, shinzo abe's japan has been supportive of the maximum pressure strategy on the sanctions. you do not see open discord like you see with the nato meetings or angela merkel. that is a stylistic difference but it is an important one. japan will be the behind-the-scenes advisory ally, not the taking it on. i have one exception and that is if we move forward with 232 tariff on autos. there japan's interests are too deeply and i do not know if i panelists agree, japan will retaliate. japan will have to retaliate. its own economic interest will be at stake and so you were not be able to pattern behavior. on the larger question, where did they go? ano not see japan/china is alternative. we have to be a different world. we may be in that world 10 years from now but not in the foreseeable future. the strategic competition between japan and china is real. the long-term concern about china's military power is very real and tokyo. i think that is where the u.s. and japan may have di

i want to start out asking about north korea. after the cancellation of pompeo strip, is the diplomatic effort they're in trouble, and i was also wondering if you could give us further details about why the trip was canceled. there are reports it was canceled following the receiving of a letter and i was just wondering if you could confirm that. he take your second question first. you know we often don't get into the detail about our private diplomatic conversations, but i can tell you the president and his national security team, which obviously included secretary pompeo, and i want to make it clear that ambassador bolton was part of these conversations. there were some in after reports that he was not. the entire national security .eam discussed this in their judgment, they made the judgment that now is not the right time to travel. the president agreed with that, and that is when the president made the decision to send out tweets announcing that decision. >> and the diplomatic effort? effort islomatic still ongoing. i know a l

south korea you know those. sort of hybrid it's a it's a vassal state of the united states but there's also the bread people like the the the present president and people like kim jong and all those who who saw i did tone with the north as their prime political purpose not as a servant of the united states perhaps that's a clash that we've yet to see. happen and perhaps it's coming but the process has started that's that's the important thing and regional processes like this have a high success rate though they have a high success rate in in. i remember in uganda when the east african states following the the the whole devastation of video made and you guys and that was a regional solution they were left they were left alone. in latin america when countries very rarely have been left alone by the united states. they've had regional groups that have banded together in. economic formations and if you like protected each other maybe that's why they hated to go chavez so much because he promoted that he promoted tha

both koreas have been trying to move forward on a number of issues north korea's likely to tout what it says have been goodwill gestures on its behalf stopping its weapons testing program and providing or returning the remains of u.s. troops who were killed during the korean war in return for some kind of easing of sanctions south korea meanwhile is likely to push north korea to make more concessions on its weapons program bring back something that it can bring to those allies in washington who are very skeptical of north korea these days just to mention this going to the third meeting between the two sides since april how significant are these talks now how deep is this stalled that we're seeing. both koreas do seem very committed to at least maintaining this level of interaction which we haven't seen before this will be the first time a south korean president has met three times. at any point alone in one year with a north korean leader and so this meeting in pyongyang is definitely expected to have a lot of pageantry a lot of symbolism a lot of. you know symbolism of the korean th

as well and they should north korea should play the game and we should not underestimate north korea you know the president has come into office really frankly like any unlike any previous president but he's taking a negotiation chapter out of president ronald reagan's book there were three important facts and steps that president reagan would take. number one you have to respect the other side and you have to show that respect we saw that with president trump's unprecedented trip to north korea number two we have to make sure that we negotiate in good faith and thirdly you have to give the other party something to bring back to their constituents so i think that we're working those details out secretary pompei oh we'll reschedule that trip it's important to note the president trump did say that he looks forward to seeing chairman kim very soon a precursor to that will be a secretary pompei a visit perhaps with with the newly appointed special envoy and frankly we'll see you know i think the world is hoping for a resolution a peaceful resolution with north korea and that is truly wor

south korea is in the middle of a record—breaking heatwave.target of their anger, so—called spy cam videos. translation: i've always been under the fear that there could be secret spy cameras at the toilets, in the company building, or underneath the desks. the threat is also there at public bathing areas, gyms, swimming pool changing rooms, accommodation and on the street. spy cam pornography is the spread of intimate photos and footage taken by hidden camera. in south korea, it is so pervasive that it regularly makes headlines. perpetrators have included schoolteachers, church pastors, government officials and police officers. in some cases, the victim's own boyfriends or relatives. just last month, amid growing pressure to act, president moonjae—in called for tougher measures on the culprits. but police teens tasked with uncovering the hidden cameras have a tough job ahead of them. translation: the problem is they can install and uninstall the cameras quicker than we can find them. the #metoo movement has led to an unprecedented surge in fe

north korea talks are more public is becoming clear that we are not getting anywhere in north korea released another grumpygram last night, no, no, what don't you get about no that abe may feel like if the train is faltering does need to put as much effort into getting this summit, otherwise it looked like he was being left out. >> thank you for coming. this is a really great conversation. i remember of the heritage foundation. i'm a japan native, u.s. citizen and i've been here 45 years. i have limited information coming in to me personally. when i want to talk about is the security treaty, as you mentioned save japan, but that the japan into the backseat, not the front seat. of course, the u.s. is sitting in the driver seat. the trouble is, i feel that japan was complacent being in the backseat. i really saddens me. it's a two-way street and america did not urge japan to come up here to the front seat, the passenger seat. they didn't do that either. but my question is, instead of concentrating on economics so much, japan should in concentrating on security treaty article nine, changing the

and north korea together if we pull back south korea is not going to pull back with us they're still going to engage north korea they have direct equities their interest in not having any military action with north korea we can't afford a separation from south korea though if we're going to have a successful negotiation my fear is that we're going to begin to have a separation that is analogous to our separation with many of our european allies and with canada where our alliance is no longer feel like they can count on the united states for their security and they go it alone and that begins to unravel american leadership in asia we need to preserve prevent that from happening can we say joe the single payer of singapore summit was a bust. it's tempting to say that it's tempting to because again larry we have decades of failure with north korea and our default position is to not have a successful negotiation with them but i wouldn't call it a bust just because it's now opened up a direct channel between the united states and north korea that did not exist prior although it did of cou
