I saw this on PBS back when it came out in 2003, and found it fascinating. It's the best piece on NK that I've seen so far.
I saw that, too. Thanks for the link.

The part about defectors being hesitant to criticize Kim scares me to no end. Although it is understandable that when people grow up with an idea in their head that everyone around them reinforces, it's hard for them to change their thinking. It's nearly impossible for somebody who grew up in a deeply religious family and community to abandon the idea of God, for instance.
