This 10 Minute Video Is A Briefing On The Defection Of The North Korean Solider

Nine days ago, a North Korean soldier managed to make his way across the border between North Korea and South Korea, one of the most dangerous stretches of land in the world. The daring escape was all caught on video — and that video is now public.

As the 10-minute video below shows, the 24-year-old solider known only by his last name, Oh, drove his car at a high speed toward the border and then took off on foot. Four North Korean soldiers chased after him, shooting at the defector about 40 times and hitting him five times. It was the first North Korea defection over the border in about a decade.
