A rescued Korean woman has traveled alone a year ago and reportedly had not been seen since she was abducted while she did not contact family members about two months ago. Fortunately, our people are having an accident overseas. The information about the risk of overseas travel, which the government has decided, needs to be taken into consideration first.

Then, it is Kim Hye-young.

The 40-year-old Korean woman who was rescued was reportedly in eastern Burkina Faso west of Benin and west of West Africa.

Considering the security situation, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has set aside withdrawals for the northern part of Burkina Faso, and trip advisory for all other regions.

The woman has traveled alone overseas a year ago and has been reported to have lost contact with her family in March.

The government announced yesterday (10th) that the family had not been informed of the rescue by the French government, but there was no report of missing or spying.

The US government has reportedly not rescued its own kidnappings until after the rescue.

The government plans to interview the woman as soon as she arrives in Paris to confirm her escape.

He also expressed his deepest gratitude to the French government, expressing his condolences to the French troops and their families who were victims of this rescue operation.
