A North Korean defector, who calls himself a 'victim of brainwash education,' tells what 'shocked' him most when he first stepped on American soil.
, said, adding that Americans are considered "street dogs" or "wolves" depicted as "people who torture and kill" in North Korean education, which he found to be "totally wrong."
He said he was walking in the morning and a man jogging by said "hi" and he started realizing that "everyone actually said 'hi' on the street" and that it was part of American culture. And the landscape of America was stunning to Kim as well, who said visiting the Grand Canyon felt like going to Mars and he was amazed at how big Texas was. He added that he was surprised there wasn't any public transportation in California and he noted the "subways in New York City are really bad and stink."Because of what North Korean media presented, he said he was led to believe that Iraq was going to win the Iraq War in 2003.
