Myung Hee, mother of Kenneth Bae, an American man currently serving a 15-year sentence for "hostile crimes against the state" in North Korea, said she doesn't see any effort by the U.S. to help free her son, in an interview that was broadcast today, July 25, 2013, on CBS THIS MORNING (7:00-9:00 AM) on the CBS Television Network. Watch the appearance below.

"I don't see any action," Hee told CBS News correspondent Margaret Brennan. "I want to ask them, send an envoy or do something. As a mother, I am really getting angry. Really getting angry. What do they do?"

Bae's sister, Terri Chung, told Brennan that if she had a chance to speak to North Korean President Kim Jong-un, she would "ask for his mercy," adding that her brother is "a good man" who "maybe made some wrong choices."
