Camp 14: Total Control Zone Page #2

Synopsis: Shin Dong-Huyk was born on November 19, 1983 as a political prisoner in a North Korean re-education camp. He was a child of two prisoners who had been married by order of the wardens. He spent his entire childhood and youth in Camp 14, in fact a death camp. He was forced to labor since he was six years old and suffered from hunger, beatings and torture, always at the mercy of the wardens. He knew nothing about the world outside the barbed-wire fences. At the age of 23, with the help of an older prisoner, he managed to escape. For months he traveled through North Korea and China and finally to South Korea, where he encountered a world completely strange to him.

I was interrogated by the

secret service for weeks.

They checked my statements.

I had to take lie detect to tests.

These investigators are experts.

They know all about labour camps

in North Korea in details.

You can't tell them any lies.

They are perfectly informed.

When North Korean refugees come to South

Korea they check who the refugees are.

I had to make a sworn written statement

that I would never talk about the

contents of these interrogations.

The only food in the camp was

maize and Chinese cabbage soup.

Three times a day for

twelve months of the year.

Always the same food.

If you made a mistake you were

only given half as punishment.

They only got a single spoonful.

The guards decided that under own.

It was far too little.

We were always starving.

We only ate meat when we caught rats.

When a rat got into the room we

closed all the doors and killed it.

Then we quickly held it in the

fire to burn off the hairs.

Then we skinned and gutted it.

Then we cooked it in the fire and ate it.

There no was special method.

Rats have soft bones

so we ate absolutely everything

including the bones.

You could assume that

the inmates would say:

"So what, if we get

killed, we'll just die."

But that's not true.

The inmates in the camp feel a greater

desire to live than before.

They want to survive by all means possible.

Simply put:
if you want to

survive in the camp, you have to obey.

Otherwise you'll be killed.

or who have an opinion about

that guilt will be shot immediately.

and control the birth of children

or even got pregnant by the guards.

Since life in the camp is very tough,
