The Underground railroad lives
| The story of Pastor Son, who became a Christian while working in China and returned to North Korea to spread his faith, gives us a glimpse into a rarely reported story: the large number of North Koreans who live and work in China, the porous border that allows the smuggling of Kareoke machines and South Korean DVD’s into North Korea, and the smuggling of the thousands of North Korean refugees into China, and the presence of an “underground railroad†composed of Christian believers that is helping to smuggle out some of these refugees.
Many, some estimate 200 to 300 thousand, North Koreans are living in China illegally, knowing that if they are caught they will be deported back to North Korea and placed into prisons where conditions are terrible. |
