Hello, Ms. Yang.

Firstly, I would like to thank you for doing this AMA, by doing so, you are giving people a rare opportunity to see what it's actually like within the DPRK, and not anything skewed by the media. As for my question: What's the hardest thing you've had to adjust to? How shocked were you when you realized the DPRK propaganda was (for the most part), entirely false?

Wow. Toilets? That's surprising. I thought North Koreans (for the most part), had running water. Does it only exist in Pyongyang?

That's quite funny, I must say. As an American, I can't fathom what you went through over there. I'm hoping to make a career out of International Relations, so hopefully, I can perhaps make a change in the DPRK. Thank you for what you do, and what you have done.

Considering going into Law- I've heard that there are many paths lawyers can go down, and people have told me that Law School is "no longer worth it", because there are more lawyers than there are jobs... is this still valid today?

Hello!

I'm currently a Junior in High School and have pondered either something in the Diplomatic field or possibly investigative journalism after college.

My Question: It must be horrifying in Syria, considering the massive amounts of ghastly acts that occur there every day. How do you battle on, how do you get through it? I'm amazed.
