'Let's live together' featured defector Lee Soon-sil, whose continuous work without holidays raised concerns from Park Won-sook.
In the broadcast of KBS2TV 'Park Won-sook's Let's Live Together' aired on the 1st, defector Lee Soon-sil appeared.
On this day, defector Lee Soon-sil appeared, having gained attention for her testimony as a defector. In fact, her monthly sales exceeded 2 billion won, generating buzz. She said, 'North Korean cuisine can be prepared even while sleeping because it does better in the heat; cold noodles sales are good,' adding humorously, 'I hope it stays hot until December.'
He stated that he has not been able to take a proper vacation since coming to Korea, saying, 'I don't know how long it's been since I saw the sea; I saw it while passing by,' reminiscing about his difficult days as a 꽃제비 (a child homeless in North Korea). 'I went to the ocean front with my daughter, feeling hopeless about life. As I went in with my daughter, she struggled, saying she wanted to get out as the water got deeper,' he recalled, expressing sorrowful memories. He added, 'At that time, my daughter was 3 years old; I hope she is living well now,' stating the sea remains just a painful memory.
He continued, saying, 'I've never rested in Korea; there are no vacations,' mentioning the state of his broken body without rest, 'I went to the hospital and got an injection; it made me really dizzy.' It turned out he had only worked without even eating meals. He explained, 'It was because I enjoyed cooking. I lived forgetting about rest; while my staff could take breaks, I have never rested.'
Park Won-sook expressed concern, 'You have crossed such dangerous lines; I'm worried that working continuously could harm your health.' In response, he noted, 'I had a health check-up a year ago; I was malnourished, and I have now advanced to severe obesity; I was part of the upper class in the North.' He remarked, 'The living standards in South Korea are higher than those of the upper class in North Korea; in fact, even defectors who are basic welfare recipients have a better lifestyle than the upper class in North Korea,' which drew attention.
