Former North Korean Prisoner Heads Organization Conducting Radio Broadcasts into North Korea
Kenneth Bae is a name I haven’t heard in a long time since his detainment and release from North Korea:
American missionary-turned-human rights activist Kenneth Bae, who was once detained in North Korea for more than two years, said he will engage in a broadcasting propaganda initiative using shortwave radio to reach North Korean people.
The head of the New Korea Foundation International said in an interview with The Korea Times that he will spearhead a public fundraising campaign to establish a North Korea-focused radio service called Korea Link.
“The effort is centered on North Korean citizens rather than the Kim Jong-un regime in the North,” Bae said during the interview at the Korea Press Center in Seoul, Feb. 4.
You can read more at the link, but it will be interesting to see if the Lee administration tries to crackdown on these radio broadcasts.
