NEW YORK:- South Korean Ambassador to the UN Hwang Joon-kook said children in North Korea face grave human rights abuses, including receiving the death penalty for distributing South Korean dramas, during a UN Security Council meeting at the UN headquarters in New York on Wednesday (April 3).
During the UNSC Briefing on Children and Armed Conflict, Hwang said children in North Korea face “egregious human rights violations”, despite North Korea being a signatory country to the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
