MIN SUNG
AGE | 18
LOCATION | South Korea
STATUS | Safe & Free
Min Sung told us that the hardest part about escaping from North Korea was to leave his family. As he talked about how much he loved them, he sobbed. Upon arriving into China he couldn’t eat for days because of the guilt he felt and how much he missed his family. However, the need for food pushed him to escape. His neighbor across the street died of hunger and he also witnessed a public execution in his town just a day before he left. Min Sung couldn’t tell his parents about his plans to leave, because he knew they’d try to stop him. The situation in the North had gotten so bad that some of his friends who went to the army returned home because they weren’t getting enough food. He escaped North Korea and fled into China. This is when we met up with him successfully rescuing him. He is now safely resettled in South Korea where he has been reunited with his uncle.
THANK YOU FOR CHANGING MIN SUNG’S LIFE AND PROVIDING THE OPPORTUNITY FOR HIM TO ENJOY THIS NEW LIBERTY.
