A Modern Underground Railroad
When Hannah Song's grandmother left North Korea over 70 years ago just prior to the division of the Korean peninsula, she never imagined she wouldn't be allowed to return. Since then, North Korea has devolved into "part-threat, part-tragedy and part-joke," with real lives hanging in the balance. Through the organization LiNK, Hannah now hopes to restore dignity, safety and wellbeing to the citizens of her grandmother's homeland.
