Here's a video worth watching to get a glimpse about defectors from North Korea called Learning Liberty. SBS Dateline is a documentary program out of Australia. Check out some of their other work as well---it's outstanding.
In regards to the drills coming up at the beginning of this week, I'm not sure what to say. The South claims that it's doing normal, routine drills which are in no way provocative, but as I'm sure you've read in countless articles, the North is threatening all out war. I really don't think the second Korean War will break out as North Korea has to know that it will clearly lose any war it starts (it's bombastic rhetoric can't win wars). But who knows as that country is so eerily unpredictable.
However, that being said, there's no sense of panic or fear where we are. So please try not to worry too much (and watch the American news with a grain of salt).
