A North Korean soldier has defected to South Korea across the rivals’ heavily fortified border. The South Korean military says it took the custody of the soldier who crossed the central portion of the land border on Sunday.
You realize there are reasons someone who didn’t resolve themselves to leave in the first place might want to go back even if their home country is terrible, right? Family, having to start over from scratch, propaganda, etc.
That article isn’t as damning as you think it is, these were sailors/fishermen that drifted into south Korea, not defectors that have been living in S Korea for years and want to return
But wait, I heard from someone on .ML that North Korea was the better Korea, why are people defecting?

I’m confused, are you implying that the presence of non-defectors who want to go back means the defectors who don’t want to go back are wrong?

People leave their countries of origin all the time?
They don’t usually cross mined zones and people shooting at them. Unless the country of origin is a lot worse
You’d have to be insane to leave best korea! Therefore, you must be put down of course. \s
