North Korean kids who are suffering in hunger.

Refugees of North Korea

This topic is basically about North Koreans who risk their lives and cross the DMZ line for better living. They go to special schools to learn, speak, act, and eat as South Koreans do. But they come with fear as they defect their citizenships because of their families that are suffering to survive in the other Korean nation. They are provided jobs and opportunities to help their families that are left behind live for the better.

Development



1946 - North Korea's Communist Party (Korean Workers' Party - KWP) inaugurated. Soviet-backed leadership installed, including Red Army-trained Kim Il-sung.

1948 - Democratic People's Republic of Korea proclaimed. Soviet troops withdraw.

1950 - South declares independence, sparking North Korean invasion.

1990s - Young North Korean men for defectors. They would swim or sneak across the border into China.
About 15,000 defectors have settled in the South, with 4,000 arriving in the past 2 years.

Nothing has really changed. Hundreds of North Koreans are brought to South Korea for better living. But the South Korean government doesn't want to have bad relations with North Korea.
