Not all defectors do agree that life is bad there. Further, no, it isn't a utopia, and there is state media you can access, such as KCNA. The DPRK isn't a utopia, nobody claims it is, we just agree that it's one of the most misunderstood and propagandized against countries on the planet, and there's logical reason for that.
They defected because they don’t think life is bad in the place they were fleeing? Why are they fleeing if they don’t believe life is bad in North Korea?
I recommend you check out some of the links I posted. In many cases they flee for the same reason Cubans do, outside pressure results in economic crisis, especially during the 90s when the USSR dissolved and their main trading partner no longer existed overnight.
So life is bad enough to need to leave to survive economically, but this isn’t them thinking life is bad there.
I’m not accepting more homework assignments and class reading than I already have, peace if you don’t want to elaborate ✌️
