WILL YOU STAND FOR THE MOTHER OF PEACE? You? President Lee Jae-Myung? Korea? World?

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

October 14, 2025 | Seoul, Republic of Korea

AN OPEN LETTER TO HIS EXCELLENCY PRESIDENT LEE JAE-MYUNG, THE PEOPLE OF KOREA, AND THE CONSCIENCE OF THE WORLD

A Nation’s Soul on Trial: A Global Plea to Release the Mother of Peace, Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon

Your Excellency, People of Korea, and Citizens of the World,

We stand at a precipice in history, faced with a choice that will echo for millennia. We ask two simple, yet profound, questions:

As the Israelites were scattered for two thousand years, paying a heavy indemnity for sending the Prince of Peace, Jesus, to the cross—will the Korean people repeat this historic mistake? Will they permit themselves, their children, and all future generations to suffer by allowing the Mother of Peace, the wife of the Lord of the Second Advent, to be unjustly persecuted? Or will all Koreans, from the humblest citizen to the President, awaken to this moment, stand for justice, and release the innocent Holy Mother Han, thereby securing God’s eternal blessing for their nation?
Will the world remain silent and inactive, as it did during Jesus' first coming, thereby condemning itself to endless cycles of conflict and war? Or will the 8 billion people of this world rise as one, demand the release of Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon, embrace Korea as the world’s spiritual homeland, and, together with God’s Only Begotten Daughter, finish build the Kingdom of Peace on Earth this year?

The Republic of Korea, a nation forged in the fires of adversity to become a beacon of democracy, now stands accused of orchestrating a brutal campaign of spiritual suppression. At the heart of this storm is Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon—an 83-year-old great-grandmother, a global peace icon, and the revered co-founder of the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification (FFWPU), known to millions as the “Mother of Peace.”

Her illegal and inhumane detention in the Seoul Detention Center has sent shockwaves across the globe, plunging the Republic of Korea into a moral and historical crisis. We, a global chorus of millions who cherish peace, faith, and fundamental human rights, implore you to act decisively to end this state-sanctioned cruelty.

A Humanitarian Crisis and Flagrant Violation of Law

The indictment of Dr. Moon on October 10, 2025, by Special Prosecutor Min Joong-ki, is not a pursuit of justice but a politically motivated purge—a “religiocide” targeting a powerful voice of freedom (Bitter Winter, Sept 20, 2025).

Just one week before her arrest in late September, this elderly woman underwent a critical heart procedure. Today, her health is in a state of rapid collapse. Eyewitnesses and supporters report horrifying signs of medical distress that constitute torture by neglect:

Dark circles under her eyes, dry, flaking skin, and a flushed red face, indicating severe stress and systemic health decline.
Excruciating pain so severe that her lips have been seen turning blue.
Her documented chronic recurrent arrhythmia is being willfully ignored by authorities, placing her life in imminent danger.

This is not just inhumane; it is a brazen violation of South Korea's own Constitution and laws.

Legal Violation	Law/Constitutional Article Violated	The State's Violation
Human Dignity and Right to Life	Constitution of the Republic of Korea, Article 10	"All citizens shall be assured of human dignity and worth... It shall be the duty of the State to confirm and guarantee the fundamental and inviolable human rights of individuals." The detention of a frail, 83-year-old woman in a life-threatening medical state is a direct assault on her inviolable human dignity.
Elder Abuse by Neglect	Welfare of Senior Citizens Act, Article 2(4) & Article 39-9	The law defines "Elder abuse" as neglect. Article 39-9 criminalizes acts of physical or mental harm against the elderly. By denying necessary medical care and humane conditions to an 83-year-old post-operative patient, the state is actively committing elder abuse.
Right to Health & Humane Treatment	Constitution, Article 34 (5)	"The State shall endeavor to guarantee... welfare for senior citizens." Her detention in a prison environment, directly contrary to her medical needs, is a gross failure of this constitutional duty.
Right to Bail and Rescission of Detention	Criminal Procedure Act, Articles 93 & 95	Article 93 allows for the rescission of detention when it is no longer necessary. Article 95 mandates that bail "shall be allowed" except in grave circumstances. For a stationary, globally recognized leader who appeared at her hearing in a wheelchair (The Guardian, Sept 23, 2025), denying release based on a baseless claim of "evidence destruction" is an abuse of judicial power.

A Politically Motivated Witch Hunt Disguised as Law

The actions of the Special Prosecutor reveal a systematic and politically charged assault on Dr. Moon and the FFWPU. This is not an isolated case but one of three special prosecutor probes launched by the current liberal government against figures associated with the former conservative administration (The Guardian, Sept 23, 2025), exposing the investigation's true purpose: political retribution.

The persecution began with an illegal exit ban in May 2025, violating her fundamental rights before any formal indictment. This was followed by a campaign of intimidation, including a massive raid and grueling interrogations on September 17th, 24th, and 29th (Bitter Winter, Oct 8, 2025)—a cruel ordeal for an 83-year-old recovering from heart surgery.

This entire process makes a mockery of Korea’s democratic principles.

Constitutional Violation	Constitutional Article (Republic of Korea)	The State's Violation
Presumption of Innocence	Constitution, Article 27 (4)	"The accused shall be presumed innocent until a judgment of guilt has been pronounced." The state has treated Dr. Moon as guilty from the outset, using pre-trial detention as punishment and coercion, a flagrant violation of this sacred principle.
Freedom of Religion	Constitution, Article 20 (1) & (2)	(1) "All citizens shall enjoy freedom of religion." (2) "No State religion shall be recognized, and religion and state shall be separated." This investigation is a textbook case of the state weaponizing the law to persecute the spiritual leader of a global faith movement, constituting an unconstitutional breach of the separation of religion and state.
Personal Liberty & Prohibition of Torture	Constitution, Article 12 (1) & (2)	(1) "All citizens shall enjoy personal liberty..." (2) "No citizen shall be tortured or be compelled to testify..." The relentless, extended interrogations of a fragile, post-operative patient is a clear form of mental and medical torture designed to coerce a confession.
Equality Before the Law	Constitution, Article 11 (1)	"All citizens shall be equal before the law, and there shall be no discrimination... on account of sex, religion or social status." The selective and disproportionately aggressive prosecution of Dr. Moon because of her religious leadership is a clear act of unconstitutional discrimination.

The World is Watching: Unprecedented Global Support

The world is not fooled by this charade. The truth of this persecution has ignited a global movement.

Journalistic Investigations Affirm Her Innocence: Recent reporting confirms the FFWPU's consistent position: the alleged acts were carried out by a rogue former official, Yoon Young-ho. Han herself testified that another executive assistant "planned and executed everything," denying all allegations (Yahoo News Canada, Oct 10, 2025). The defense has argued that the documents she is accused of attempting to destroy were already public, making the prosecution's central claim for her detention baseless (Bitter Winter, Sept 22, 2025).
A Thunderous Chorus of Global Leaders:
- Donald Trump, Former U.S. President: “WHAT IS GOING ON IN SOUTH KOREA? Seems like a Purge or Revolution. We can’t have that and do business there.” (August 2025)
- Mike Pompeo, Former U.S. Secretary of State: “Deeply troubling… a betrayal of democratic principles. A nation that persecutes an 83-year-old woman of peace has lost its moral compass.” (The Washington Stand, October 2025)
- Newt Gingrich, Former U.S. Speaker of the House: “This is suffocating political and religious suppression. It’s an attack on all people of faith.” (Fox News, September 2025)
- Dr. Massimo Introvigne, Director, FOREF Europe: “This is not anti-corruption—it is a purge. A religiocide disguised as justice.” (Bitter Winter, October 2025)
A Global Spiritual Uprising:
- Vigil of Hope: Thousands of faithful members are holding a constant, 24/7 prayer vigil outside the Seoul Detention Center, their prayers echoing through the night in a powerful testament to her innocence (motherofpeace.com).
- Worldwide Prayer: Hundreds of thousands more across nearly every nation on Earth have joined a global prayer chain, a spiritual mobilization of historic proportions for a Korean legal case, with millions more joining online (motherofpeace.com, Sept 22, 2025).

An Attack on the Soul of Korea

To persecute Dr. Han is to attack the very fabric of the Republic of Korea. Since its founding in Seoul on May 1, 1954, the Unification Movement has been a pillar of Korean freedom, prosperity, and global outreach.

A Bulwark Against Communism: Founder Sun Myung Moon was a survivor of a North Korean death camp. The movement he and Dr. Han built became a spiritual and economic powerhouse against communism, famously gathering 1.2 million people in Yeouido in 1975 to fortify the nation's spirit against Northern aggression.
Building Korea's Global Voice: They founded vital institutions like the Segye Times in Korea and The Washington Times in the U.S., which became an influential voice against global communism.
Cultural Ambassadors to the World: They created The Little Angels Children's Folk Ballet of Korea, which has served as a cultural embassy for over 60 years, showcasing the beauty of Korean heritage to the world and building bridges of peace.
Pioneers of Peace and Reconciliation: Dr. Han and her husband have built a vast global peace network, including the Universal Peace Federation (UPF), which holds General Consultative Status at the UN. Reverend Moon’s historic 1991 meeting with Kim Il Sung in Pyongyang was a courageous step toward peace that preceded official government efforts by years.

Our Urgent and Unwavering Demands

President Lee Jae-myung, the world is watching. Do not allow Korea’s hard-won democracy to be irrevocably stained by the persecution of a sick, elderly woman of God. We demand that you honor your nation’s Constitution and restore its moral standing.

IMMEDIATE HUMANITARIAN RELEASE: Grant Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon immediate, unconditional release on urgent medical and humanitarian grounds, upholding Constitution Article 10 (Human Dignity) and exercising the court’s authority under Criminal Procedure Act, Articles 93 and 95.
END THE WITCH HUNT: Cease all politically motivated persecutions against religious leaders and organizations, honoring Constitution Article 20 (Freedom of Religion).
GUARANTEE A FAIR TRIAL: Ensure a transparent judicial process where the sacred principle of Presumption of Innocence (Constitution Article 27 (4)) is restored and respected.
REVEAL THE TRUTH: We ask the media and all sectors of society to reject distorted narratives and promote a fair understanding based on facts and the undeniable truth of this political persecution.

Do not allow the persecution of new religions to become a source of eternal shame for Korea. The only path to ultimate peace is to embrace the Mother of Peace. Rise to this historic moment!

RELEASE HAK JA HAN MOON! RESTORE JUSTICE TO KOREA! UNLEASH THE MOTHER OF PEACE!

With urgent hope and unwavering respect,

Nicolae Cirpala President, Global Peace Building Network (GPBNet) | Happy TV News +79056333606
