*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Over the past 20 years, 33,000 North Korean refugees have escaped to South Korea, though their plight in South Korea is largely unknown to the Western World. These North Korean refugees who have made it to freedom are struggling. Within South Korea, North Koreans find themselves in a land of plenty but can't seem to move on. For many, they are not in danger for the first time in decades but cannot turn off the traumatic memories from their lives in North Korea and the peril they faced during their escape. After escaping North Korea, refugees travel the 6,000 mile modern day underground railroad in China and other Asian countries. Following on the authors' earlier title, Escaping North Korea: Defiance and Hope in the World's Most Repressive Country and g athered from the author's work with the NGO, Crossing Borders , this book shares the real life stories of North Koreans trapped under the weight of lingering trauma, depression, and discrimination from South Koreans. These stories help us to imagine what the future might hold for North Korea and North Korean refugees in a changing world.
