Near-Escape From North Korea
Kim Jong Un is not the only North Korean going to China. Many of his people go, too. But they don't all make it to freedom. No matter the desire, the horrendous outlay of cash to greedy "brokers", the turmoil of the journey. Sometimes it all falls short and NK refugees are either sent back to be tortured, or commit suicide. Pray for NK today.
