The last time Ken Eom managed to speak with his family in North Korea, they did not seem particularly worried about contracting the coronavirus, reported DW. A far more immediate concern was obtaining enough food or money to buy food, he said. But he said that may have changed in recent weeks. Eom, who escaped from the North in 2010 and now lives in South Korea, said he has not been able to speak with his family since Pyongyang finally admitted on May 12 that the virus was runnin virtually unchecked through its population. He cannot contact them regularly as it is dangerous to try to call anyone in the North, but he fears the virus is likely to be widespread in his hometown. The illness and the strict lockdown imposed on the 26 million people in the country will add to the hardship felt by most, he said. Combined with the worsening food shortages, the situation has become “a disaster”, reported DW.

“The last time I was able to get through to them, they did not even mention the virus,” said Eom, an advocate for defectors and a keynote speaker for the Seoul-based Freedom Speakers International organization. “The government told them there was no coronavirus in North Korea, so they believed that,” he told DW. “They just asked me to send them money so they could get some food. But now I am sure they are afraid about the virus as well,” he said. Still, with limited access to medicine, few doctors or hospitals, and a largely malnourished and unhealthy population, severing all links with the outside world seemed to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un the best solution, as reported by DW.
