In 2016, an 18-year-old North Korean math prodigy vanished from his Olympiad team in Hong Kong. He wasn't running from prison, he was running from recruitment. Pyongyang wanted him for its elite hacker unit, the same group that steals billions and builds the regime’s cyber-weapons. With no passport, no allies and $200 hidden in his sock, he attempted the impossible: defecting on Chinese soil. This is the unbelievable true story of the teenager who outsmarted North Korea's surveillance machine and fled for freedom.
