She returned home after being taken away to south Korea.

She laid bare the truth behind the rackets over "defectors from the north" kicked off by the south Korean puppet regime and their miserable plight.

Pak who had resided in Rapuk-dong No. 1, Ranam District of Chongjin City, North Hamgyong Province, told the conference how she was taken away to south Korea.

According to her, she illegally crossed the border on the night of March 29, 2006 in a foolish hope of meeting in China her father who was believed to live in south Korea and getting money from him.

Reaching the northeastern part of China, she wandered about in search of an abiding place. At last she was allowed to enter a brick house.

She said:

"The master of the house spoke Korean. Hearing my story, he discussed something with his son and let me stay in a dugout.

"One day he told me that when there is a phone call for me I should not say anything else except answering the questions put by the caller. Afterwards, the phone rang. The caller asked me my name, date of my birth and brothers and sisters before ringing off.

"3-4 days later, the master of the house told me that if I were to meet my father, I should go to Qingdao by ship. Then he brought me in a car to a place in Dalian where I stayed for about a week. One day a man who claimed to be 'a manager' took a photo of me. I learned later that he was bribed by the puppet regime and had the job of taking away people from the DPRK to south Korea. Two days later, he appeared and said it was time for me to leave for meeting my father. Then he let me get on a car and drove it to a place I could not know. I was thus handed over to this or that man according to a scenario of the puppet group.

"At around 4 p.m. on June 28 I got aboard a 'ship bound for Qingdao' together with a woman at Dandong Port. At around 9 a.m. next day when the ship anchored, the woman threw my fake certificate into waters before getting it off. And she told me to wait for someone approaching me before a W.C. on the ground floor of a building before disappearing. Then a man took me to the second floor of the building.

"When I opened the door and entered a room, an overbearing man with a longish face took something to drink out of a box on the desk and offered it to me. He said in a cynical tone, 'This is a drug making everybody speak only truth. You are in south Korea.'

"The enemies asked me about my career, how I lived in the DPRK, etc. and told me to write about them. They coaxed and threatened me. They went the lengths of insulting me and even making a fool of me.

"It was not until I was questioned for about 20 days that I was allowed to go to see my father. But my father was lying on a hospital bed after undergoing an operation on the brain. He was a human vegetable unable to see or hear. It was only at that time that I realized I was deceived by the enemies".
