This is a book review of Jieun Baek's "North Korea's Hidden Revolution: How the Information Underground Is Transforming a Closed Society," which you can purchase here.
Because of the difficulty of performing research on North Korea, many authors tend to aim their “camera” downwards from a bird’s eye view, providing readers with a general sense of change over time without diving deep into the hearts and minds of the people affected. Jieun Baek’s poignant contribution to the literature, on the other hand, reminds us how profoundly human this story is.
