1695: Pronoun Journey
North Korean Abductions of Japanese Nationals
NHK reports on the ongoing struggle of families whose loved ones were abducted by North Korea in the 1970s and 80s. Megumi Yokota, who was taken at age 13 in 1977, remains one of the most prominent cases. While North Korea admitted to some abductions in 2002, many victims remain unaccounted for, leading to continued pleas for government action.
