Answer:

The central idea of the text is survival.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jihyun Park is the story of a North Korea refugee who fled her totalitarian government and became a refugee in the United Kingdom.

She tells her story about her country is ruled by Kim Jong-un with an iron fist who violates human rights repeatedly and controls the freedom of speech of its residents.

Jihyun Park recounts the severe famine her family suffered and how she lost her first family member to starvation; watching his bones stick out before he died.

She crossed the border with her brother-who the military were searching for, for dealing illegally in gold- into China but was separated from her brother and became a victim of human trafficking. She bore a son for the man she was sold to, and when he was five, he was taken from her and she was deported.

She was eventually reunited with her son and was helped by a man named Kwang who assisted her in crossing into the Mongolian border. She is now married to him and is now UK's Outreach and Projects Officer at EAHRNK where she is working to improve humanitarian conditions in North Korea.
