This is a story of a defector from North Korea, who was an officer at DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) and crossed over the 38th parallel north.
Fifty-six years ago, the Korean War paused with an armistice at Panmunjom. Korea was divided into two nations.
The incident of him represents the reality of ‘38th parallel north’ as a legacy of the war. In other words, this is the tragedy of the ‘present’ that the ‘past’ war caused rather than a personal one.
