For South Koreans, people in North Korea are not just anybodies. [...] We cannot read what is described in the COI report without it breaking our hearts. We cannot listen to stories of North Korean defectors without sharing their tears. Take a look at South Koreas Ambassador to the United Nations Oh Joons powerful and personal appeal to the UN Security Council in December. When he requests the Council to take action, he speaks out of the heart of most South Koreans, many of whom still have relatives in the North. We only hope that one day in the future, when we look back on what we did today, we will be able to say that we did the right thing for the people of North Korea, for the lives of every man and woman, boy and girl, who have the same human right than the rest of us.
