The Man Evaded Capture And Had Crossed Into Communist North Korea In January, But He Has Only Today Been Confirmed To Still Be Alive.
South Korean Man Who Defected To The North Confirmed Alive And Well By Kim Jong Un
Normally when you hear about Koreans crossing the DMZ established in 1953, you'd normally think of North Korean defectors fleeing from the Communist regime.
But
sometimes, for one reason or another, a South Korean defects to the
Hermit Kingdom.
That's
what happened on January 2nd 2022, when a South Korean man
evaded the South Korean Army and was greeted with open arms by the
North Korean Army.
South
Korean authorities declared the man dead, believing that he'd stepped
on a mine or mowed down by machine gun fire.
But
this morning they were proven wrong, when North Korean leader Kim
Jong Un announced that the man had made it, and had been spending the
last five months aiding Pyongyang in researching AI and Nuclear
Ballistics Technology.
This
announcement also came after North Korea launched test misses,
shortly after US president Joe Biden said that: “I'll tame North
Korea like a lion trainer at the zoo”.
The
South Korean Army doesn't believe that the man shown waste real South
Korean defector, but a double.
Seoul
has denied any defection took place that day, and that no South
Koreans were aiding the North.
