    I was curious and looked a bit more into this. So looking up public information regarding the org in Korean, there’s 0 employees. The registered address is in a residential apartment building directly facing the head office of seoul metropolitan office and two blocks away from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. 1

    These are their web presence Youtube Webpage Twitter

    It seems to be an evolution of NK defectors association. But I didn’t look much into it because I got sidetracked by the South Korean Ministry of Reunification that I stumbled upon while looking into SAND. The planning regarding the forced privatization of North Korean land is wild.

      Thanks for the links comrade.

      Can’t speak Korean myself so I’m having to rely on the little robot in my phone to tell me what that website says.

      Having a little read about though, and it’s kinda what I expected - some of the articles on it seem to be arguing for a tighter surveillance state to root out communists and the rest are your typical unsourced defector stories.

      Edit: whole lotta reposts of BBC articles.

      Edit again: including a story eerily similar to the recent one.

      Edit once more: and in contradiction, this.

      1/5 of North Koreans have publicly stated they watch K-dramas a crime executable by death and/or hard labour.

      If I was a spy risking my life and my family’s life and my family’s subsequent 25 generations to sneak a video of evil go the heroes, I’d maybe spend an extra second to also capture sound lol
