FOX NEWS SPECIAL REPORT:
(SOURCE FOX NEWS) - Kim Jong Un’s officials plucked teenage girls from
North Korean schools to serve as the leader’s sex slaves, indulged in a
gluttonous lifestyle while his people starved and ordered public
executions that turned into horrific shows of violence, a North Korean
defector revealed.
Hee Yeon, who fled
Pyongyang in 2015 and now lives in Seoul, told The Mirror about the
years she spent living in constant fear of Kim Jong Un since the
ruthless dictator took control of North Korea in 2011.
“Despite our privilege we
were scared. I saw terrible things in Pyongyang,” Hee Yeon said.
In what heinous example, she recalled standing in a crowd of 10,000
people assembled to watch the execution of 11 musicians who allegedly
made a pornographic video.
Security guards ordered
the viewers to leave their classes and stand in a stadium around the
men, who were tied up and gagged.
“What I saw that day made
me sick in my stomach. They were lashed to the end of anti-aircraft
guns,” she said. “A gun was fired, the noise was deafening, absolutely
terrifying. And the guns were fired one after the other.”
She added: “The musicians
just disappeared each time the guns were fired into them. Their bodies
were blown to bits, totally destroyed, blood and bits flying
everywhere…and then, after that, military tanks moved in and they ran
over the bits on the ground where the remains lay."
Hee Yeon remembered seeing
the remains “smashed…into the ground until there was nothing left.” She
said the gruesome scene haunted her and took away her appetite for three
days. A report,
released by The Transnational Justice Working Group in Seoul in July,
also stated the regime's firing squad carried out public executions in
school yards, bridges and sports stadiums.
But that was just the tip
of the insanity Hee Yeon said she witnessed. She said no one was immune
to the young leader's vicious whims, and anyone could be executed if
they were suspected of disloyalty.
“I was brought up [and]
told he was like a god – that he was as a young boy an expert sailor,
marksman before the age of seven, god-like,” she said. “Then I met him
at big events, I found him terrifying, really scary, nothing god-like
about him.”
Several previous reports also painted Kim as a hot-tempered man. He
reportedly executed his uncle, Jang Song Thaek, when he “flew into a
rage” after finding out about an alleged coup plot that was planned with
China. Nam Sung Wook, a security expert, recalled the leader “exploded
with foul language” when his former girlfriend suggested he stop
smoking. Hee Yeon
also said “the prettiest” schoolgirls were taken away to work in one of
Kim’s “hundreds of homes around Pyongyang.”
“They learn to serve him
food like caviar and extremely rare delicacies. They are also taught how
to massage him and they become sex slaves,” she said. “Yes, they have to
sleep with him and they cannot make a mistake or object because they
could very easily simply disappear.”
And as the rest of North
Korea suffered from poverty and food shortages, Kim was reportedly
indulging in $2,700 “bird’s nest soup,” caviar and other imported
dishes.
“One of my friends went to work at one of his hundreds of homes in
Pyongyang and she told me this was what he liked,” Hee Yeon told The
Mirror Kim came
into power when his father died from a heart attack in December 2011. He
has been credited with propelling the regime’s missile and nuclear
program, appointing rocket scientists to identify flaws in the program
that hadn't been noticed before.
Little is known about
his secretive family, but he is married to Ri Sol-ju and reportedly has
three children, according to South Korea’s Yonhap News Agency.
Kim vowed to complete his
nuclear program despite recent U.N. sanctions against North Korea and
President Trump’s threats to destroy the dictatorship. Trump addressed
the U.N. assembly on Tuesday and mocked Kim as "rocket man,” saying the
dictator was “on a suicide mission for himself and his regime.”
North Korea has threatened
to strike the U.S. territory of Guam with missiles and conducted its
15th missile test of the year last week. It carried out its sixth
nuclear test in early September.
But amid the bombastic
threats, Hee Yeon said the leader’s actions reflect his fear the regime
will eventually be toppled.
“Kim Jong-Un threatens war
because he feels cornered and has no escape,” she said
