Meet and Greet with Jin-hye Jo, a North Korean Refugee

We are so grateful that Jin-hye Jo and her sister were able to visit the University of Maryland to share their story of how they escaped North Korea.  This truly was a moving experience for many of us who attended and relived the journey with her.  We can say that sometimes we forget how real the North Korean crisis is; how it affects people like Jinhye, who is no different than me and you.  We are very happy to know she is successful and currently residing in Virginia.  Jin-hye hopes her story can help people understand the neglect and atrocities that many North Koreans endure while living in the most repressive country in the world.
