Summary

You want us to do what? - the couple had been kidnapped and forced to live in North Korea for years before they found out the truth. The wife was a former beloved movie actress. The husband was an award-winning film director. And now North Korea had kidnapped them to make movies for Kim Jong Il. It sounds like a fictional story - but it was very much real. And the couple’s lives depended on how good of a movie they could make. (Please listen to Part 1 before this episode!) Book Rec: “A Kim Jong Il Production” - by Paul Fischer (Even my Korean parents who grew up with this case on the news learned so much from this book! 10/10) Full Source Notes: rottenmangopodcast.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
