Literally, "not-yet-converted long-term prisoners"

Unconverted long-term prisoners is the North Korean term for northern loyalists imprisoned in South Korea who never renounced Juche. The North Korean government considers them to be "pro-reunification patriotic fighters",[1] while South Korean scholars have described them as "pro-communist spies".[2]

History

In March 1998, South Korean president Kim Dae-jung declared an amnesty for long-term prisoners over the age of 70, as well as some suffering from disease.[3] In February 1999, President Kim declared another amnesty for 17 unconverted long-term prisoners.[4] In 2000, as part of the June 15th North–South Joint Declaration, sixty-three of the prisoners were permitted to settle in North Korea. There were hopes that North Korea would reciprocate by releasing Southern prisoners of war still detained in the North.[5] A number of them left behind family members in the South; the South's Ministry of Unification refused permission to let the family members go north with them.[6][7] They crossed the border by bus through the truce village of Panmunjom at 10 AM on 2 September 2000, while a group of Southern protesters decried their return and demanded that the North return abducted Southerners; they were welcomed on the Northern side by a reception with a brass band playing revolutionary songs,[8] and each was later awarded the National Reunification Prize.[1]

Stamp issued by the DPRK in 2000, commemorating the release of North Korean "unconverted long-term prisoners". Note the top right corner depicts the National Reunification Prize awarded to them.

In literature and film

A book about their experiences was published in North Korea in 2001.[9] In 2003, South Korean director Kim Dong-won released a documentary about the unconverted prisoners, based on more than 12 years and 800 hours of filming.[10]
