“Refugee by Us” talk concert . . . Jung Woo-sung “any one of us can be refugees”

Ismail, a refugee refugee who is a Yemen, first arrived in Korea and revealed his experience as a refugee. Mr Ismail said the look around Koreans towards refugees had changed with media reports.

The Democratic Party of Korea's All states Youth Committee and the All states University Student Committee held a talk concert with Refugees by Our Side at the Auditorium of the National Assembly Library in Yeouido, Seoul on the afternoon of the 28th. Mr. Ismail, Mr. Jung Woo-sung, a goodwill ambassador and actor for the UN refugee organization, Lee Il, an attorney (appeasing the Public Interest Law Center), and Lee Joo, a representative of the Youth-A Asia Peace.

Mr. Ismail was one of two people recognized by the Justice Department as refugees among 484 Yemen refugee applicants in December last year.

“When we first came to Jeju Island, people greeted and kindly treated us with a nice face,” Mr. Ismail said. But it changed when the media began to deal with Jeju Island refugees as an issue.” The story about refugees in the media was different from the fact. “As time went by, he is now a welcome face, but there is still racism, and it’s much better,” he said.

“Many refugees in Korea are in a difficult situation at work,” Ismail explained. “No one tells us about the Korea Labor Act even after receiving refugee status, and it is difficult to understand the contract,” he said. “The most often is how refugees can mix with Korean society and culture,” he said.

In the talk concert, it was pointed out that the refugee hatred spread by the media is difficult to reverse.

When asked by the audience how to persuade an acquaintance with a refugee hatred perspective, Youn-A said, “It is difficult to persuade refugee hatred in everyday life because the media and Internet Community cause refugee hatred.” It is important to hear information from the media or Internet Community and how to construct ideas.

“In the past, when the MERS crisis occurred, the refugee recalled a black type, but now when the Yemen refugee became an issue, the image of a refugee man who would rape women was created,” Kim said. “I think it’s important to start a conversation by asking what information you’ve heard and what you’ve come to think about it,” he said.

UN refugee agency Goodwill Ambassador Jung Woo-sung stressed the government and ruling party's obligations to protect refugees. “If it is clear that Korea cannot go against the United Nations Refugee Convention and the National Refugee Act, the government ruling party can and should play a more role,” said Jung Woo-sung. “The government is about to announce the revision of the Refugee Law, which will raise the standards for refugee screening and reduce the period of filing administrative lawsuits by refugee applicants,” he said.

“Not only can a weak, poor, and weak person be a refugee, but any of us have to leave Korea if there is a civil war, and if there is a threat of persecution, we can become a refugee,” Chung said. “(Government ruling party) should explain who are refugees and how the state accepts and protects them.” “We must calmly and consistently persuade the people to fulfill our national responsibilities,” he added.
