Press release: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE A Global Cry for Justice: Exposing Korea’s Secret War on Faith An Open Letter to President Lee Jae-myung, Republic of Korea
To His Excellency, President Lee Jae-myung,
The world no longer watches Korea with admiration—it watches with alarm. A growing body of journalistic investigations, diplomatic statements, and eyewitness accounts now reveal what many feared: a covert alliance between autirities and communist sympathizers aimed at dismantling Korea’s religious foundations. This campaign—cloaked in legality, driven by ideology—is not merely a political purge. It is a spiritual attack.
On September 23, 2025, Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon, the 83-year-old co-founder of the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification, was arrested and interrogated for ten hours despite recovering from heart surgery. She remains imprisoned at the Seoul Detention Center, falsely accused of embezzlement and violations of the Political Funds and Anti-Graft Acts.But this is no ordinary prosecution. It is the culmination of a broader, systematic assault on Korea’s religious landscape. Investigative reports from Bitter Winter and Chosun Ilbo reveal that since the impeachment of President Yoon Suk Yeol, your administration has targeted religious groups perceived as conservative, pro-American, or anti-communist. The July 18 raid on the Unification Church, the storming of Yoido Full Gospel Church—one of the world’s largest Pentecostal congregations—and the persecution of Pastor Jun Kwang-hoon are not isolated incidents. They are coordinated strikes.
Journalists have uncovered proposals circulating within your administration to adopt “cult dissolution” laws modeled after controversial statutes in France and Japan—laws widely condemned by international legal scholars for violating religious liberty. These proposals, if enacted, would allow the government to disband religious movements deemed politically inconvenient.
The implications are chilling. According to Christianity Today, rallies across Seoul have drawn tens of thousands of believers protesting what they call “Communist infiltration” of Korea’s democratic institutions. Evangelical leaders warn that Korea risks becoming a “vassal state of China,” with religious freedom sacrificed on the altar of ideological conformity.
Global leaders have responded with outrage:
President Donald Trump, ahead of your White House visit, declared: “WHAT IS GOING ON IN SOUTH KOREA? Seems like a Purge or Revolution. We can’t have that and do business there”.
Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo condemned the arrest of Dr. Han as “deeply troubling,” calling it a betrayal of democratic principles.
Former Speaker Newt Gingrich described the crackdown as “suffocating political and religious suppression”.
Dr. Han is not a politician. She is a spiritual diplomat whose work spans continents and ideologies. With her late husband, Rev. Sun Myung Moon, she built schools, universities, and peace initiatives in over 150 nations. Their interfaith diplomacy brought them to the Kremlin, to Pyongyang, and to the halls of power across Africa and Southeast Asia. Their mission: unity, healing, and moral revival.
To imprison Dr. Han is to imprison Korea’s soul.
President Lee, your administration now stands accused of weaponizing the justice system to silence dissent and dismantle faith. But history offers a choice: persecution or redemption. As Scripture warns, “With the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”
Today, hundreds pray outside the Seoul Detention Center. Thousands more rally across continents. The internet records every act. Every injustice will be remembered. But so too will every act of courage.
You have the power to change course. Release Dr. Han. Restore Korea’s spiritual dignity. Reclaim your legacy.
Will you be remembered as the leader who silenced Korea’s prophets—or the one who set them free?
The world awaits your answer.
