In 2017, when a fleeing North Korean soldier sprinted across the border, North Korean soldiers fired about 40 rounds, before South Korean soldiers could drag the wounded soldier to safety.
A vast majority of about 34,000 North Koreans who have fled to South Korea since the end of the 1950-53 Korean War came via China, which shares a long, porous border with North Korea.
So is South Korea’s policy to accept all North Korean defectors?
Of course. Also any civilised country sends North Korean refugees to South Korea. The inhumane shitholes send them back to NK for them to get slaughtered.

West Germany also took in everyone who fled from East Germany, they were considered German citizens anyways.
What do you want them to do? Send them back?
At the end of the day the defectors are still Koreans.

It’s one country, still in a conflict, under a perpetual ceasefire. There are people with families spanning both sides of the border.
I believe north Koreans are also the only refugees that South Korea takes.
