How Charles escaped from North Korea to China as a young teenager and what he got a taste of for the first time ever.
What led to Charles being jailed in China, deported back to North Korea, and sent to a forced labor camp for nine months.
How working in a coal mine for a paycheck of rice was a step up for Charles, even though he had to lie about his age to get the job.
