Han Eui-jong Poor him. Shin’s life has become a gigantic invisible camp. To free him, if ever poss., from that, is for the World to stop NK increasing prisoners’ camps NOW, and DELIVER food…I bet there won’t be enough rice (what rice..perhaps only corn) for the guards of the camps either …So sad when you see tons of food waste all around……..Are we that powerless… I often wonder who the ‘neutral’ agencies decide to help…how to obtain ‘forceful entry’ on humanitarian grounds with non-political foundation?
