Decent book easy and fast listen
This book was a easy listen. The narrator did a excellent job. The story was told in a comedic manner, which actually made me laugh out loud in a few parts. I really disliked the few mentions of "white male privilege" throughout.

This book is a cheap imitation of Not Forgotten.
This book is not worth purchasing or reading. It is a cheap imitation of Not Forgotten by Kenneth Bae. Not Forgotten is a great book and a true story. Out of North Korea is a work of fiction. It copies other books on North Korea. However it lacks what made the other books about North Korea so good. Out of North Korea is filled with sentiments of white guilt and survivor's guilt. It is not an enjoyable book. Avoid it. There are much better books on North Korea than this one. Get those instead.

Alternative Motives
this book was not really about his time in North Korea but how God doesn't exist and how he feels bad about being a white male. Made it to the 6rh chapter. if you're looking for a story about North Korea imprisonment this is not one you want to read or listen to.

Amazing book!
Our church just took an offering to help the starving Korean believers... this book is a must- read if you really care for the persecuted churches... this book is a journey... you wonder where it’s taking you... then, what an experience!
