Two North Korean fishermen, who were picked up by a South Korean naval patrol after drifting over the Northern Limit Line, find themselves in a prolonged limbo. Despite their repeated requests to return to North Korea, the regime has declined to communicate with South Korea following tensions fueled by the previous North Korea policy of the impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol. Their situation has become unprecedented, as they have now spent over three months in South Korea, unable to go back where they want, indicating a standoff between the two Koreas.
North Korea has decided and stated that it wants to have absolutely no communications with the South, no matter what, showing its displeasure with the current administration.
These men appear to be stuck in South Korea until relations with the North improve, although it is of course possible that they will eventually change their minds.
