Wow, we have made it to the targeted funding goal, $6500, right before the deadline!!I cannot thank you enough for your compassion, altruism, love, caring, courage, and all the other good stuff that humanity needs more of. With gratitude, I will use every single penny that was collected for the cause, and to raise awareness on the hideous human rights violation in North Korea.

Post CommentHello dear NORTH Supporters!
North Korea has attacked an island in South Korea.
It is clear that something has to be done against the regime.
Shall we employ our hard power (money & weapons) now, or rack our brain to find a way to stop the violence with our soft power?I got interviewed by the Japan Times the other day about our soft power approach. Enjoy!

commented on a projectHi Mercedes. Thank you for your support. Indeed North Korea is a delicate subject, and many people tend not to get on their nerves especially after the rumor about nuclear missiles spread around. I think this media project could be an interesting approach, because rather than pointing fingers at the regime directly, we are showing the human suffering which is a universal theme. If you can help us get the word out to community sites, it would be highly appreciated!
