From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Durihana Mission is a defector aid Christian organization based in South Korea.[1]
History
Chinese police arrested founder Pastor Chun Ki-won in 2002 on the Mongolian border, on the escape route he pioneered. His arrest and eight month imprisonment caused a stir in South Korea, exposing the plight of North Korean defectors.
In 1995, as a missionary in the Yanji region, Chun met his first North Koreans in hiding. "These people had lost all their rights," he said. "The most important thing I could do was revive their humanity." Chun orchestrated the escapes of more than 700 North Koreans with only a handful of failures.[1][2]
