Seoul: North Korea defector likely made rare border crossing | AP News

South Korean surveillance equipment detected an unidentified person moving into North Korean territory across the eastern portion of the border on Saturday. The military said a security camera showed a person earlier Saturday crawling over a barbed-wire fence along the southern edge of the border.

South Korea asked North Korea to ensure the person’s safety via a military hotline communication channel. North Korea replied that it received the South Korean messages but didn’t elaborate on the border crosser, according to the South Korean Defense Ministry. About 34,000 North Koreans have fled to South Korea for economic and political reasons since the late 1990s, and only about 30 have returned home in the past 10 years, according to South Korean government records.

Show off.

He was homesick, and longing for the familiar halcyon days of being a mere North Korean fector.

Who on their possible reasoning ability would try to cross over to North Korea?
