    We visit the Baby Box Center and learn how Grand Circle Corporation is aiding the center’s efforts in helping abandoned babies.
    Grand Circle Foundation
    Baby Box Center
    Total donated: $6,416
    Partner since: 2019
    Decades ago, Pastor Lee Jong-Rak woke to find a baby freezing on his doorstep with nothing more than a cardboard box to protect the infant from the blustery winter wind. This horrifying discovery eventually led him to install a “drop box” in the wall of his home, which would provide a safe way for people to
    anonymously leave unwanted babies. Since its inception, more than 2,000 newborns have been left in the box, a service that is entirely funded by private donations. In addition to the temperature-controlled box, the church also offers help to single mothers faced with this difficult decision, such as temporary shelter, food, and monetary support. Funding from Grand Circle Foundation has helped clean the facility, built a rooftop storage shed for winter clothes, diapers, formula and other goods, as well as sponsored a much-needed rooftop recreation area.

    North Korea Defector

    10. syyskuuta, Etelä-Korea ⋅ ☀️ 73 °F

    Ju I’ll Lyong (Ian)
    Chungjean

    discuss the Controversial Topic of life in North
    Korea—and the second-class treatment of
    defectors who make it to South Korea.
    As an isolationist, dictatorship regime, North
    Korea frequently tops the lists of countries
    with the worst human rights violations. In
    fact, a survey conducted from 2015 to 2018 by
    the Seoul-based Transitional Justice Working
    Group found that three out of four North
    Korean defectors had personally experienced
    physical violence or the death of a close
    family member before choosing to flee the
    state. In North Korea, even the smallest of
    crimes—such as watching a Hollywood film,
    speaking negatively about the government,
    or making unauthorized international phone
    calls—are punishable by torture, prison, or
    death (for both the perpetrator and their
    families). Detention in concentration camps
    and forced starvation are not uncommon. Even
    those North Koreans who manage to escape the
    ire of their government are subjected to harsh
    lives of scarcity, oppression, and the absence
    of technological advancements. Most North
    Koreans, for example, do not have access to the
    Internet.
    We’ll hear about what life in North Korea is
    like firsthand during a conversation with a
    defector who made the perilous journey across
    the border. Sadly, for many defectors, the
    hardships continue even south of the border.
    Discrimination against North Koreans is
    common, making it difficult for defectors to
    obtain jobs and access to medical care. Often,
    they are treated as second-class citizens in
    their new homes. In a recent poll conducted
    by the National Human Rights Commission of
    Korea, around 50% of defectors claimed that
    they experienced discrimination from their
    South Korean neighbors. Our Trip Experience
    Leader can help provide cultural context to
    explain how attitudes towards these defectors
    have developed over time.

    HBS= Human Banking System
    Balloons with Bibles being dropped in N Korea. N Korean government sending trash balloons back to S Korea. Balloons with Bibles sent to awaken the common people. N Koreans are taught to hate Americans.
    Forced to look happy in videos. If they show displeasure with government they would be killed.

    North Korean defectors are individuals who illegally leave North Korea, primarily motivated by political, economic, and personal reasons, and their journey is often dangerous and complex, with many facing hardship in their new lives. While North Korean defectors can seek asylum and often receive South Korean citizenship and initial support upon arrival, integration can be challenging due to discrimination, culture shock, and financial difficulties. The regime in North Korea denounces defectors and punishes them, sometimes even extending punishment to their families.

    Motivations for Defection
    Political and Human Rights:
    Many defectors report witnessing human rights abuses, forced labor, and a lack of political freedoms within North Korea.
    Economic Hardship:
    Economic instability and widespread starvation in North Korea drive people to seek better opportunities and stability abroad.
    Personal Reasons:
    Individuals may have personal motivations, such as reuniting with family members who have previously defected, or simply a desire for a different life and freedom.

    Kim Jong Un[b] (born 8 January 1983 or 1984)[c] is a North Korean politician and dictator who has served as the third supreme leader of North Korea since 2011 and general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK) since 2012.[d] He is the third son of Kim Jong Il, who was the second supreme leader, and a grandson of Kim Il Sung, the founder and first supreme leader of North Korea.

    Seoul • Visit the DMZ

    10. syyskuuta, Etelä-Korea ⋅ ☀️ 81 °F

    Visit the DMZ •
    Since the DMZ is operated by the military, the area may be closed without prior notice. Please also be aware that
    inside the DMZ travelers will have the option to
    walk through one of the underground tunnels
    if it is open (650 feet long one way, with flat
    terrain, and a smooth slope).
    This morning, we’ll drive into the
    Demilitarized Zone (or “DMZ”) between North
    and South Korea.
    In 1953, North and South Korea worked out
    an agreement (with prodding from China and
    the U.S.) to allow for a buffer zone separating
    the ideologically opposed regions. Whenever
    the two Koreas need to negotiate, they enter
    the DMZ. As carefully controlled as that may
    sound, four tunnels beneath the DMZ have been
    discovered, one of which appeared to be part of
    a North Korean plot to attack Seoul. Monitoring
    has been constant ever since.
    Here, we’ll visit an exhibition hall detailing the
    Korean War, as well as the Dorasan Observatory
    where we’ll get another glimpse across the
    border and into North Korea

    We’ll bid our guest speaker farewell after our
    conversation, and the rest of the day is yours to
    spend as you wish.
    Dinner: On your own this evening. Perhaps
    you’d like to seek out the Korean delicacy
    of samgyeopsal, grilled pork belly.
    Evening: You have the freedom to spend the
    rest of your evening as you wish. For a striking
    view of the city at night, visit YTN Seoul Tower,
    a communication and observation tower
    located atop Namsan Mountain. This viewing
    deck is the second-highest point in the city.    Lue lisää

    A Day in the Life of Oeam Folk village

    We’ll depart for our A Day in the Life experience of the UNESCO-listed Oeam village, a historic community dating back to the Joseon period. Here, we’ll meet with the community leader for an introduction to the village, as well as a walk around the premises. Founded in the early 16th century by members of the Kang and Mok clans, Oeam currently has a population of just 192 people, most of whom earn a living through agriculture.

    After our introduction, we’ll make our way to the home of a local woman who will teach us how to make gochujang, a sweet and savory red chili paste. We’ll see firsthand how this spicy, fermented sauce brings bold flavor to any Korean dish. After our cooking class, we’ll then continue on to the home of another resident, who is a descendant of a Joseon Dynasty royal court officer. Here, we’ll learn how to make Yunyupju, a traditional liquor once served to kings made from the blossoms and the leaves of the lotus. We’ll be using a secret recipe that has been passed down from generations of this family, giving us a rare glimpse into authentic South Korean culture.
    Lunch: At the home of another resident, where we’ll help our hosts prepare lunch. Over this traditional meal, we’ll get the chance to ask our host any questions we have about daily life and the village’s traditions.

    Oeam folk village is located under Gwangdeoksan, famous for its wild flowers and gogeous vallys, and Seolhwasan. It is a place where residents still live and in the village, a pine tree forest, a Korean traditional totem pole signifying prayer for a good harvest, hanok, and stone walls combine to show the depths of its 500 year history, O90eam village is designated as national Folklore Cultural Heritage, which is why it is called as a living folk museum. In the Oeam village, you will be able to tour the village with the guidance of the Cultural Heritage Commentator, and it will be a great opportunity to experience different cultural spaces as it is close to Hyeonchungsa Shrine, a folk museum, Onyang Hot Springs, and Asan Hot Springs. If you want to escape from the surroundings of the concrete walls and get rid of the fatigue of everyday life, and make your children aware of the preciousness of our heritage through traditional culture experiences, please come to visit Oeam village. Oeam village, designated as a green rural experience village, farm stay, and ubiquitous village, always welcomes you.    Lue lisää

    Oeam Folk Village

    11. syyskuuta, Etelä-Korea

    Geonjae House, located in the central part of Oeam Village, was built in 1869 by Yi Sang-ik (1848-1897, pen name: Geonjae). It is said that the site where this house stands was originally the birthplace of Yi Sang-ik’s ancestor, the renowned scholar Yi Gan (1677-1727, pen name: Oeam).
    The house faces southwest and is enclosed o mod that this stream was built not only for aesthetic purposes but also as an emergency water source in case of a fire. A stone pond, a stone bridge, and a waterfall were built along the stream to create a beautiful landscape. The garden’s flora was carefully selected to reflect seasonal changes and includes pines, maples, and azaleas. Arranged in front of the men’s quarters are various trees, including pine, and rocks of unusual shapes. Such features appear to be inspired by Japanese garden design.

    Pungdeokdaek House was the residence of Yi Taek-ju (1721-1775), a military official of gthe Joseon period (1392-1910). Yi Taek-ju was a seventh generation descendant of Yi Sa-jong, the first person from the Yean Yi clan to settle in this village. He passed the state examination in 1744 and served in various official posts. The house is named after the Pungdeok area (present day Gaeseong, North Korea), where Yi had served as magistrate. Behing the house is a small hill, a feature not found in other houses in the village.    Lue lisää

    Oeam Village is home to many well preserved traditional houses and gardens established by the Yean Yi Sa-jong clan, who have lived here since the mid-16th century. This village was originally home to several clans. The first person from the Yean Yi Clan to settle here was Yi Sa-Jong, who came here in the mid-16th century to live with his in-laws after marrying the eldest daughter of Jin Han-pyeong. Generations of Yi Sa-jong’s descendant continued living in the area, which eventually became a prosperous upper-class village and produced many talented and influential individuals. The village is named after the pen name of Yi Sa-jong’s fifth generation descendant, the renowned scholar Yi Gan (1677-1727).
    The village is situated at the southwestern foot of Seolhwasan Mountain, and thus the land’s altitude increases eastward. Due to this topography, most houses in the village were built facing south or Southwestern foot of Seolhwasan Mountain, and thus the land’s altitude increases eastward. Due to this topography, most houses in the village were built facing south or southwest and are surrounded by stone enclosure walls that protest therefrom the seasonal northwestern wind. Passing through the village is an artificial water channel that carries clear water from Seolwasan Mountain. Gardens and dense forests were built in various places along the channel to create a beautiful landscape. The village includes both upper-class houses with tiled roofs and lower-class houses with thatched roofs, preserving the characteristics of traditional houses in the Chungcheong-do region.
    The residents of the village have long performed communal ritual offerings to wish for the village’s peace and prosperity, a tradition that has continued until today. Around the first full moon of the lunar year, rituals are held to honor the stone guardian posts at the village’s entrance and saw-leaf zelkova in the village’s center. The Jippul Cultural Feastival has also been held in the village every October since 2002 in honor of Yi Gan. The festival offers reenactments of the ceremonial occasions of Yi Gan’s life, namely his coming of age ceremony, his passing of the state examination, his wedding, his funeral, and his veneration rituals. The festival also includes various programs through which visitor can experience traditional agriculture and folk performances.    Lue lisää
