(2/3) Yesterday was #WorldRefugeeDay and in honor of that I wanted to highlight one of @libertyinnorthkorea ‘s 2024 advocacy fellows, and someone that I have the honor of knowing, Grace Kang. I met Grace a few months ago and I was deeply inspired by her passion for spreading awareness about and giving back to the North Korean people. After arriving in South Korea, Grace pursued a degree in Nursing Science and became an OR nurse. She is now the founder and CEO of “For Legacy”, a startup that allows North Korean refugees to memorialize and remember loved ones that have passed or are still in North Korea. The Arduous March was a period where millions of North Koreans starved to death due to severe famine, forcing many to cross into China in search of food or work. While in China North Koreans have no rights– as citizens, refugees, or people– and if caught they are forcibly repatriated to North Korea where they face severe punishment in political labor camps, most of the time receiving life sentences not only for themselves, but 3 generations of their family. This danger is particularly prevalent if one is caught trying to escape further out of China into Mongolia or Southeast Asia– a clear sign of seeking freedom, which is a grave political crime. When Grace’s family’s escape route was exposed, the broker they paid to help them escape abandoned them at a bus stop forcing them to try and continue the journey without guidance. With no route and no protection they were caught by the Chinese border patrol. After her mother was subjected to long hours of torture and interrogation, the rest of her family was sent back to North Korea, leaving her alone in China at 11 years old. Unlike many, Grace’s story fortunately has a happy ending. After 3 years she was reunited with her mother and grandmother, she says that “seeing my mother and grandmother again was, and still is, the greatest gift I have ever received. They are the reason I am here today.” To read more stories like Grace’s, learn more about @libertyinnorthkorea, or donate to help facilitate the escape of more North Koreans please visit the link in my bio.

(3/3) Escaping North Korea is a long, difficult journey, but the challenges do not end upon arrival into South Korea. Refugees have described arriving in South Korea as alike to being catapulted 60 years into the future overnight: they must learn how to use ATMs, the internet, ride the subway, and interact with the technologies that have become integrated into everyday life. Furthermore, coming from a society where choice is restricted and dictated at every turn the abundance of choice can be overwhelming: from schooling, to career, to finding and building a community there are so many decisions to make that they may have never even considered. In addition to this, North Koreans must also unlearn much of the propaganda that they have been fed about the outside world, as well as understand and face the stressors and trauma that result from living in and escaping from one of the most oppressive regimes in the world. I have long believed that providing specific aid based on the needs they express gives refugees the tools to thrive in their new environments and pursue their passions, and is one of the keys to solving the issues that necessitated their escape. The North Korean people are a shining example of the incredible capability refugees have to succeed and thrive given the right support, and I am constantly inspired by the determination of North Korean refugees and the risks they take to give back to and help their fellow North Koreans and change the way the world sees North Korea.
