She saw inmates die every day from the horrid conditions or injuries sustained in merciless beatings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kyung-ja longed for freedom. Her husband had died during one of her previous detainments, and she didn\u2019t want to miss out on life with her daughter who had defected to South Korea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She also wanted to get out so she could learn more about Christianity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After six months of forced labor, Kyung-ja was released. She thinks authorities released her because she told them the truth about her trip to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.persecution.com\/globalprayerguide\/china\/?_source_code=VSLEG02C3\">China<\/a>: She had left because she had to find a way to feed her family. At that time, many people crossed the border to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.persecution.com\/globalprayerguide\/china\/?_source_code=VSLEG02C3\">China<\/a> to feed their families, and upon return to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.persecution.com\/globalprayerguide\/north-korea\/?_source_code=VSLEG02N3\">North Korea<\/a> they usually were \u201cre-educated\u201d with a few months of hard labor rather than punished more severely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kyung-ja\u2019s daughter in South Korea eventually raised enough money to help her mother defect and arranged to have a pastor help her. Then, during a phone call with her daughter, Kyung-ja finally received some answers to her questions about Christianity \u2014 she learned that the church is real and so is the God it worships. Kyung-ja soon placed her faith in Jesus and found true freedom in the God she had first heard about while being beaten by a prison guard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now living in South Korea, Kyung-ja never misses a worship service, and she eagerly shares her testimony with others. While still coping with the effects of her traumatic imprisonment, including anxiety, depression, nightmares and irregular heartbeats, she still finds peace in Christ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She is currently involved in a VOM-sponsored program that disciples <a href=\"https:\/\/www.persecution.com\/globalprayerguide\/north-korea\/?_source_code=VSLEG02N3\">North<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.persecution.com\/globalprayerguide\/north-korea\/?_source_code=VSLEG02N3\">Korean<\/a> Christians and equips them to reach out to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.persecution.com\/globalprayerguide\/north-korea\/?_source_code=VSLEG02N3\">North Korean<\/a> defectors with the gospel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reflecting on how seeds of the gospel were planted in her heart by her torturer, Kyung-ja is grateful to God.
