Nine young North Korean defectors, ages 15 to 23, are being shipped back to NK after being told they

[EmperorScorpious]

[quote]Seoul (CNN) -- "Pack your bags you're going to South Korea." These are the words nine young North Korean defectors had waited years to hear having traveled thousands of miles.

Unfortunately it was a lie.

The tragic story of this group of youngsters aged between 15 and 23 takes us back a few years when one by one they managed to cross the heavily-guarded border from North Korea into China to search for food. Most of them were orphans, while others had a parent unable or unwilling to look after them.

A South Korean missionary living in China, known only as M.J. to protect his identity, tried to help the youngsters and has broken his silence to CNN.

"This one child used to live with his father," he explained. "One day his father went into a North Korean military base trying to find food but was caught and beaten to death on the spot. The child witnessed this ... his mother then told him not to come home and threw rocks at him to keep him away."[/quote]

[quote=CNN]The children have since been used for propaganda purposes in Pyongyang, appearing on state-run television in June claiming they had been tricked into leaving North Korea and expressing thanks to leader Kim Jong Un for saving them and bringing them back.[/quote]

Yup, seems like that's what they're going with.

If I remember correctly they speak a dialect that is different than the Korean spoke in South Korea so as a beginner you might have trouble understanding them.

Interesting cause my teachers say the Korean peninsula has basically one language throughout

Germany also has one language throughout and I still can't understand people from Bavaria :v:

Most people in the US speak english, but bring a northerner to a "southern" state and you'll need an interpreter.

Take [I]anyone[/I] that speaks english to fuckin' newcastle and they'll have an aneurysm.

The french I learned in school and the french they speak here in Quebec are different enough that I find myself confused often. Sad part is, I went to school here... maybe getting Egyptian women to teach French in Quebec isn't the greatest idea.

thats fucking evil.

South korean is a bit different from North korean

[QUOTE=EcksDee;42377778]Interesting cause my teachers say the Korean peninsula has basically one language throughout[/QUOTE]

South korean has a lot of loanwords from english that North korean doesn't. The traditional way for koreans to create new nouns is to combine other words that describe it. "Seal" (the animal), for example, is "물개", which is a combination of "물" (water) and "개" (dog). Today South koreans would mostly say new words to them from english simply in english but with a korean accent. The Korean word for computer is "컴퓨터", which literally pronounced "kom-pyu-tŏ". North koreans, on the other hand, still use the traditional korean way of forming nouns, so the north korean word for computer is probably like "electric brain" or something.
