"I would like to know what happened, how it was moving while it was still south of the western maritime border and also to find the body of my brother obtaining a precise explanation from the authorities," 2. "There was a golden window, of six hours, to rescue him in which the South Korean intelligence authorities were observing what was happening and no measures were taken to save him. And while my brother is accused of wanting to defect, the authorities seem to have confidence in the version of events that North Korea tells and all this makes my brother a criminal (trying to defect to the North is a crime in the South). I want to remember at this point that South Korea calls itself a democratic country with a rule of law ". 3. "I sincerely hope that the death of my brother brings the beginning of peace on the Korean peninsula and freedom for everyone. Thank you very much."
