North Korea Freedom Week: Brief Update
Just got back from the demonstration across from the Chinese Embassy in Seoul. For those who have been wondering, they said the balloon launch will be at 11 a.m. tomorrow (Saturday) at Freedom Bridge. Full schedule available here.
I’m off to the PSCORE event from 1 to 5:30 p.m. (Friday) at the Press Center in Gwanghwamun.
But first, here’s a flier for the screening of Crossing in the basement of the chapel building at Yonsei Unversity at 4 p.m. I hope to get there in time to hear some of the Yonsei students who are originally from North Korea tell their stories.
This weekend I’ll try to get some photos up from the rest of the week. In the meantime, here are a few from this morning.
Wish I could have timed my trip to have been there now, but won’t make it back to Korea until early June.
I watched “The Crossing” on YouTube. It was a good movie.
It would have been nice to know which events offered English services and which didn’t. I wanted to make it out to some but without any information at all about the languages available didn’t even bother. Obviously I realize the one with foreign speakers was English but so many events had Korean names listed. Will the North Korean Yonsei students talk be translated?
