Best Rose visits (2017-12-27)

 


These photos would have been impossible in April 2015 when Eunhee Park joined FSI (then TNKR).

We have met her many times--I can't recall ever having a meeting where we didn't feel more inspired after meeting her. Every meeting has laughs and jokes. But she is also an extremely thoughtful lady, so eventually, the topic gets serious.

She is a lady who wants to learn and enjoy her life.

Eunhee is one of our ambassadors, she has even raised money for the organization and hopes for the day we will have a strong organization. She joined us the year before we became an official organization and has been part of us growing.

Here's my Korea Times in 2016 as she was going through her metamorphosis. She was the first refugee in FSI to go from anonymous, nameless and faceless to a public figure. We were even on TV together earlier this year.

Eunhee and FSI co-founder Eunkoo Lee analyzing a profound quote that I had presented to them. We all laugh and joke, but with Eunhee the topic will eventually get serious.



Eunhee loves TNKR and vice-versa.


Yes, we were in a restaurant. Yes, she is hanging on, with her feet off the ground.


I loaned her my coat because she didn't bring a large coat with her. If you see a tiny lady wearing a coat several sizes too large, it may be Eunhee.

Chosun Monthly magazine [Korean language]

  Chosun Monthly Magazine has made an announcement (in Korean) about the Seoul Honorary Citizenship award that I received on December 9, 2022.  Our Korean staffers say that the magazine is a big deal in South Korea. Here's the overall roundup of media about the award. In the next two months, I have extended interviews coming up in two different magazines, one in the USA and one in South Korea. Both articles will be in respected publications so they should raise awareness of FSI's work that your support makes possible. * * * Support FSI via Stripe or PayPal . https://donate.stripe.com/3cs28F5IAcc85IAaEF or PayPal .

North Korean defector seeks justice (Korea Times)

  It was international news when 12 North Korean waitresses and a male manager who worked at a restaurant operated by the North Korean regime in China arrived in South Korea in 2016.  The waitresses have mostly maintained a low profile. There have been numerous accusations and assertions, with some saying the waitresses didn't want to escape, some accused the Park Geun-hye administration of playing politics by releasing details of the case, etc., etc., etc. My blog at the Korea Times today features an exclusive interview with one of the former North Korean waitresses who filed a criminal case against the former manager. You can read about it here on the Korea Times website. https://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/opinion/2023/02/728_345165.html   Keep in mind that there are many more facts to the case and that it is much deeper than this brief excerpt of her comments. She also shared legal documents that I shared with the Korea Times well in advance to give them time to review t...
