>>NEW VIDEO SHOWS A NORTH KOREAN
DEFECTOR WHO MANAGED TO ESCAPE,

EVEN THOUGH HE WAS SHOT FIVE
TIMES IN THE PROCESS OF DOING

THIS WAS A 24-YEAR-OLD
MEMBER OF THE NORTH KOREAN

MILITARY, AND HE DID DEFECT, HE
DID MANAGE TO CROSS OVER TO

SOUTH KOREA, AND HE IS RECEIVING
MEDICAL ATTENTION AT THE MOMENT.

BUT THE STORY IS INSANE,
ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU TAKE A

LOOK AT THE VIDEO, TAKE A QUICK
LOOK AT THAT.

>>YOU SEE THE NORTH KOREAN
MILITARY JEEP SPEEDING PAST

CHECKPOINTS, HEADING TOWARDS THE
BORDER WITH SOUTH KOREA.

DEMILITARIZED ZONE NORTH KOREAN
SOLDIERS REACTING FROM THERE

INTO A DITCH NEAR THE LINE THAT
DIVIDES THE TWO NATIONS, HE SETS

OUT ON FOOT, RUNNING, AS THE
NORTH KOREAN GUARDS BEGIN

DOZENS OF ROUNDS FIRED
AT THE DEFECTOR, EVEN AS HE

>>AT SOME POINT THE NORTH KOREAN
SOLDIERS SEE HIM AND SEE WHAT

HE'S DOING, THEY START FIRING AT
HIM, MULTIPLE ROUNDS, AND

HITTING HIM, AND HE STILL
SURVIVES ENOUGH TO CRAWL TO

>>CRITICALLY WOUNDED, SHOT FIVE
OR SIX TIMES, HEAT SIGNATURE

FROM CAMERAS SHOW TWO SOUTH
KOREAN SECURITY FORCES CRAWLING

TOWARDS THE DEFECTOR TO CARRY
HIM OUT AND EVACUATE HIM TO

>>THAT IS GREAT FOOTAGE, AND A
GREAT REPORT BY ABC, CHECK OUT

THE LINK DOWN BELOW FOR THE
WHOLE REPORT.

A DAY LATER THEY
FLEW HIM TO A HOSPITAL DOWN PAST

SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA AND REMOVED
FIVE BULLETS FROM HIS BODY.

>>THEY DID, AND TO GIVE YOU SOME
MORE INFORMATION ABOUT HOW MANY

TIMES THEY SHOT AT HIM,
ACCORDING TO REPORTS THE

SOLDIERS FIRED AT HIM ABOUT 40
TIMES, HITTING HIM WITH BULLETS

THE DEMILITARIZED SONG THAT HE
CROSSED INTO, AND AT THAT POINT,

THE NORTH KOREAN SOLDIERS BASED
ON A CEASE-FIRE AGREEMENT ARE

SUPPOSED TO BE SHOOTING AT HIM,
BUT THEY DID SO ANYWAY.

THERE IS AN ARGUMENT THAT THEY
VIOLATED THE ARMISTICE AGREEMENT

BETWEEN THE TWO COUNTRIES, I
DON'T THINK NORTH KOREA CARES AT

>>IF YOU START FIRING INTO THAT
ZONE YOU ARE REALLY RISKING

WAR, AND THEY DID FIRE INTO THAT
ZONE, WHICH THEY AREN'T SUPPOSED

TO DO, AND THEY PHYSICALLY
CROSSED OVER AS WELL.

KOREA HAS A LOT OF BLUSTER AND
THEY DO A LOT OF MISSILE TESTS,

BUT GENERALLY THEY DON'T CROSS
THAT ZONE.

OBVIOUSLY SOUTH KOREA WILL CROSS
IT BACK AND WE ARE BACK IN THE

THINK THAT WHAT THEY FOUND IN
THE SOLDIER OTHER THAN THE

>>IT GIVES YOU A SENSE OF WHAT
IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING

WORMS SO IF YOU ARE
UNCOMFORTABLE WITH THAT I WANT

TO GIVE THAT WARNING, BUT WITH
THAT SAID, HERE IS A PHOTO OF

WHAT THE DOCTORS PULLED OUT OF
HIS INTESTINES.

OUT THAT HE IS SUFFERING FROM
HEPATITIS, IT'S A FORM OF

HEPATITIS THAT USUALLY SPREADS
FROM UNSANITARY HOSPITALS

>>WHEN THEY WE USE SYRINGES
THEY SHOULDN'T USE, NEEDLES,

IT TURNS OUT THAT A
SHOCKING PERCENTAGE OF NORTH

KOREAN DEFECTORS HAVE PARASITIC
WORMS IN THEIR BODY.

REASON IS THEY USE HUMAN MANURE
FOR FARMING, WHICH YOU AREN'T

SUPPOSED TO DO. AND THERE IS
EASY THINGS YOU CAN DO TO AVOID

THESE WORMS, BUT THEY DON'T HAVE
ANY MONEY, THEY HAVE NOTHING.

ONE CASE THEY DID A STUDY OF
NORTH KOREAN DEFECTORS, AND OF

THE WOMEN THEY STUDIED, I THINK
IT WAS ALL WOMEN, SEVEN OUT OF

THE 17 HAD WORMS IN THEIR
BODIES, AND ABOUT 10% OF THE

DEFECTORS SO FAR HAVE HEPATITIS
B. IT'S BECAUSE THEY DON'T TAKE

NORMAL PRECAUTIONS THAT ANYWHERE
ELSE IN THE WORLD YOU WOULD

TAKE, BECAUSE NORTH KOREA IS
BASICALLY ONE GIANT

NORTH KOREA, THEY ARE HOSTAGES
TO KIM JONG-UN AND THE RULING

OH, WE DON'T KNOW HIS FIRST
NAME, WE KNOW IT ISN'T STEVE --

PEOPLE LIKE HIM ARE WILLING TO
WHISK THEIR LIVES TO GET OUT OF

NORTH KOREA IS
ONE OF THE MOST INTRACTABLE

PROBLEMS ON THE PLANET, YOU ARE
DAMNED IF YOU DO, DAMNED IF YOU
