japanese "defectors"

somehow i doubt they're there out of free will

Americans in NK? What's the desire? If I ever get tired of the day to day humbug of modern life i'd join the Amish before I went to North Korea.

i dunno about the modern defectors, but some defected during the korean war

the most famous japanese defectors literally hijacked a plane to get there. then they realized their mistake...

North Korea actually had a higher standard of living than South Korea until the 1980s so I'm not surprised if it happened during the Korean War.
