the 18th, at a time past 2 AM, a man gets off when a taxi stands.

This is Kim Mo, in her 20s who defected three years ago and then came back to North Korea.

This is a CCTV video installed near Yeonmijeong, a pavilion on the northeast coast of Ganghwa Island.

Military officials estimate that Mr. Kim swam to North Korea, a little over 3 km in a straight line from near Yeonmijeong.

If you touch the fence as it is equipped with a fence equipped with scientific alert equipment on the coast, the guard will know immediately. .

It is that Mr. Kim passed through the drainage line under the border fence and entered the mouth of the Han River.

In the vicinity of the waterway, Kim's bag was found containing water glasses, a passbook, and a currency exchange receipt.

The Joint Chiefs of Staff said that Kim's post-war post-war activities were imprinted on military surveillance equipment and are being verified.

Even though it was captured by surveillance equipment, it means that it was missed, so it seems difficult to avoid criticism that a hole was drilled in the operation of the military border.

From last year's defection from Moksun to the smuggling in Taean this year, the military said it would prepare measures to prevent recurrence.
