North Korean Soldier Successfully Flees to South - Oni - 11-28-2017
Amazing how this guy managed to sprint, even after being shot multiple times. He's being treated in South Korea after successfully fleeing from the North.
Apparently he had lost half the blood in his body when they found him. The South Korean doctors also found multiple parasites in his body when operating.
Quote:South Korea is broadcasting news of a North Korean soldier’s daring escape on loudspeakers to his former colleagues across the border, South Korean media reported.
The soldier, 24, who was only identified by his surname "Oh" by doctors, was shot five times by his fellow service members as he dashed across the border on Nov.13. He is recovering after undergoing surgery at a hospital in Suwon, south of Seoul.
The broadcasts, reported by the South’s Yonhap news agency, are part of Seoul’s continuing campaign of psychological warfare against soldiers and others along the border in the North.
Quote:The South's military's loudspeakers started blaring the news soon after Oh defected, Yonhap said, citing unnamed military officials. The news agency said the broadcasts described the defection “in great detail,” including how Oh escaped and was shot and his treatment by South Korean doctors.
South Korean Defense Minister Song Young-moo visited the truce village of Panmunjom in the Demilitarized Zone — which Oh defected from — on Monday and applauded South Korean and U.S. troops for taking "very appropriate" measures, Yonhap reported.

Damn, is he just a random defector, or is he someone important? If hes someone important, the intelligence value alone will be worth seeing.

To my knowledge, a random defector. He might still have intel.

He was a solider high enough rank to have access to a vehicle, but I think the guy is a major badass, he was dying, he knew he was either going to die or make it and went balls to the wall and made it.
