  • last month, I showed you the most depressing country I've been to North Korea.

  • I show you their missiles, soldiers and their people.

  • And that made me cry and many off you cry.

  • North Korea is depressing way in the world.

  • There are two Koreas, not one.

  • So what about South Korea?

  • What do people do there?

  • To answer that question?

  • I visited South Korea, and what I saw there will make you unexpectedly happy because it is under pressing.

  • Just look at the way they protest, See in the rest of the world, protests get easily violent, easily turned into riots and clashes and weapons, but not in Korea.

  • In 2018 I witnessed a rare Korean protest, and I was surprised by how peaceful it waas.

  • South Koreans went to the street in the millions to protest against their president, using candles, street parties, flags and inflatable sharks, not weapons or violence.

  • And after a few weeks off protests, they succeeded.

  • The president was removed from office peacefully.

  • This was a revolution off candles.

  • To this day, I am inspired by their protests and I am even mawr inspired by what they did 20 years ago.

  • Following is another true story.

  • In 1998 the Korean government was running out of money.

  • They owed billions of dollars in loans and the government couldn't pay them back.

  • And that is when the Korean people stepped in.

  • I kid you not.

  • Millions of citizens donated their own money to the government.

  • They collected their goal.

  • They'll necklaces their rings and personal belongings and gave them to the government voluntarily so they could pay back national debt.

  • My parents gave away three rings to save the country from the national debt.

  • I mean, who would do such a thing for their country?

  • Not high, not you, but the Korean people Did.

  • They paid their national debt as a community, and 20 years later they built an amazing country with world class medical systems, world class, smart cities, war class technology companies.

  • That's why today there's a little bit of Korean technology in your pocket right now.

  • At the end of the day, North Korea is still depressing, but it can change, and it can become a country with peaceful protests, strong community and smart technology.

last month, I showed you the most depressing country I've been to North Korea.
