March 1, 2026 | Seoul, Republic of Korea
Global Broadcast Press Release: 163rd Open Letter to Her Holiness Holy Mother Han, Revered Mother of Peace; His Excellency President Lee Jae-myung; Honorable Members of the National Assembly of the Republic of Korea; Cherished Citizens of the Republic of Korea; and the 8 Billion United Global Citizens Committed to Justice, Healing, and Enduring World Peace
President Lee Jae-myung, esteemed citizens of the Republic of Korea, and fellow global citizens: On behalf of all who cherish justice and humanity, we extend our profound apologies for the profound injustice inflicted upon Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon, the 83-year-old embodiment of compassion, endurance, and our collective hope for unity. This investigative press release, crafted by Happy TV News journalists in partnership with the Global Peace Building Network (GPBNet) and True Love Revolution champions, synthesizes February 2026 insights from South Korean outlets like Yonhap News Agency, Chosun Ilbo, Korea JoongAng Daily, and international sources including Anadolu Agency, Reuters, The Washington Post, Human Rights Without Frontiers, and the 2026 International Religious Freedom (IRF) Summit. It uncovers a glaring violation of human rights against a lifelong builder of bridges, blending her empowering legacy with urgent calls to defend religious liberty, mend fractures, and spark a planetary drive to halt all conflicts.
This week's South Korean developments (February 22-28, 2026) escalated alarms over judicial excess, protections for elderly detainees, and faith freedoms in Dr. Han's case. On February 21, the Seoul Central District Court rejected her bid to extend a brief medical suspension (February 11-21), compelling her return to Seoul Detention Center by 2 p.m. KST amid documented hazards like falls and ongoing ailments. Yonhap and Anadolu highlighted prosecutorial slant connected to ex-First Lady Kim Keon-hee, fueling wider democratic worries. Shockingly, on February 22—one day after reincarceration—Dr. Han endured a severe nosebleed in the facility's restroom sans medical personnel; her doctor at HJ Magnolia International Hospital flagged it as an emergency with blood-soaked tissues, exposing custodial lapses. Internationally, the 2026 IRF Summit in Washington, D.C., boosted demands for her freedom, with figures like former U.S. Speaker Newt Gingrich and Bishop Luonne Rouse labeling it religious persecution. On February 26, during the World Clergy Leadership Conference National Prayer Rally, 70 international clergy visited her in detention, petitioning for humane care and reconciliation; undaunted, Dr. Han exhorted them to advance God's will. Social media surged with #ReleaseTheMotherOfPeace actions, including New York protests, Gwanghwamun Square vigils in Seoul, and digital petitions, juxtaposed against upbeat economic reports like market gains but eclipsed by random detentions. Globally, 2026 figures from ACLED, Crisis Group, and the ICRC show over 130 active conflicts—doubling in 15 years—affecting more than 100 nations with 50+ major wars uprooting millions in Ukraine, Sudan, Gaza, Myanmar, Nigeria, and elsewhere, demanding leaders like Dr. Han.
Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon, co-founder of the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification (FFWPU) and acclaimed as the Mother of Peace, confronts baseless pretrial detention in South Korea on disputed bribery and funding allegations—dismissed by her defenders and elite 14-member legal team (ex-prosecutors and judges) as contrived and politically fueled. Seized September 22, 2025, without conviction or complete trial, she has suffered 162 days in custody as of March 2, 2026, excluding short medical respites. This week's incidents underscore South Korea's mishandling of faith rights, senior safeguards, and equitable justice, reinforced by IRF statements. Her February 11 reprieve permitted restricted hospital care for legal and medical teams only, after a November 2025 glaucoma procedure not prolonged.
This outrage defies South Korea's Constitution: Article 20 upholds religious freedom; Article 12 ensures due process against capricious holds; Article 11 affirms equality; Article 21 shields expression and assembly—all trampled here. Authorities lean on flimsy evidence while dismissing health appeals, unmasking prejudices tied to Kim Keon-hee. At 83, Dr. Han's health emergency commands action: progressing macular degeneration threatens sight; acute glaucoma, diabetes, atrial fibrillation risk cardiac collapse; extreme weight drop and knee issues compel crawling for essentials. January 2026 brought three falls (January 5, 15, 23) inflicting hip/pelvic harm, a January 27 courtroom collapse postponing hearings, and the February 22 nosebleed. A February 9 assessment urged pain relief and expert intervention. These oversights violate UN Nelson Mandela Rules, emphasizing dignity and non-custodial options for aged or infirm prisoners—benchmarks South Korea, a democratic exemplar, must uphold but has abandoned.
Mirroring historical oppressions, ex-Czechoslovak political prisoner Peter Zoehrer equated her ordeal to communist-era cruelties on February 21, 2026. PhDr. Juraj Lajda, Ph.D., a former dissident scholar, condemned her re-detainment despite vision decline, post-knee surgery mobility curbs, and recent cardiac procedure. A September 2025 courtroom wheelchair image captures her immense duress. As worldwide condemnation mounts, what path will President Lee select to emancipate this blameless peace visionary?
Foreign clergy sensed the danger before South Korea's own religious leaders did. They came because they understood what is happening in Korea and what God's will demands of them. 70 clergy from five continents visited Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon, leader of the Family Federation, in a Seoul detention center. She is 83. Held 161 days without a verdict. Bail denied repeatedly despite deteriorating health. Christians, Muslims, Jews, Hindus. From Africa, Europe, the Americas, Asia, the Pacific. Johannes Ndanga of the Africa Christian Council said after visiting her: "What happened to the innocent in the time of Jesus resembles what is happening today."
Over 65 years, since co-founding the movement in the 1950s alongside Rev. Sun Myung Moon, Dr. Han—born during the Korean War in North Korea—has relentlessly supported Korea and humanity. She spearheaded postwar anti-communist campaigns, rallying 1.2 million Koreans in 1975 against Cold War perils. She bolstered industrial powerhouses like Samsung and Hyundai, catalyzing Korea's "Miracle on the Han River" from a $1.5 billion GDP in 1960 to today's powerhouse. In diplomacy, she facilitated the 1991 Kim Il Sung summit for peninsular harmony and the 1990 Gorbachev encounter to ease worldwide strains. She established the Women's Federation for World Peace (1992, spanning 157 countries) and Universal Peace Federation (2005, in 200+ nations), advancing interfaith discourse, family values, and conflict resolution. Her principles of equity and oneness resonated with presidents, including indirect backing for President Lee's ascent through mutual peace aspirations—yet his administration imprisoned her sans trial, a stark betrayal demanding remedy. 2026 accounts from The Washington Post (February 3) and unificationnews.eu confirm her anti-communism and reconciliation endeavors amid investigations.
A resonant true personal story illuminates her empowerment: Amid Rev. Moon's near-lethal Korean War captivity and family torment, they revisited in 1991 with absolution, not vengeance. As Dr. Han affirmed, "Viewing others as foes obstructs mercy. A mother's boundless love fosters it. I opted for solidarity over reprisal." This catalyzed the Korean Peninsula's Joint Denuclearization Declaration, demonstrating peace arises from bold empathy—a crucial insight for our divided age.
In 2026, 130+ armed conflicts devastate 100+ countries—twice the count in 15 years—with 50+ major wars ensnaring generations in Ukraine, Gaza, Sudan, Myanmar, Nigeria, and more. Half the globe—100 nations—grapples with war today. What are you waiting for? If this dire truth persists, what will you do daily? Logically and practically, Dr. Han's unconditional immediate release is essential: As a divine beacon, she can lead the 2026 Global Ceasefire Initiative, sanctifying Earth through True Love to eradicate violence. Absent her wisdom, strife lingers; with liberty, empathy-driven movements can extinguish war's fires. Only by liberating Her Holiness Holy Mother Han to consecrate all Earth can ALL WARS CEASE in 2026. #ReleaseTheMotherOfPeace. Every human must rise now: Protest immediately, circulate release appeals, broadcast her peace heritage via media, lobby leaders through e-government, and adopt daily peace practices with GPBNet's True Love Revolution—such as forgiveness exercises, family strengthening, interfaith exchanges—for round-the-clock social media influence.
President Lee Jae-myung, revered Korean citizens, and worldwide family: We deeply lament this disloyalty and the anguish imposed on a guardian of human bonds. We offer this uplifting narrative: Revere elders' insight, protect faith freedoms, champion justice—insist on her everlasting freedom. United, we heal divides and craft unbreakable peace.
Global Empowerment Blueprint: Practical Best Practices for Every Korean and Global Citizen to Act Now Convert indignation into influence with these peaceful, democratic measures:
- Mobilize Nonviolent Protests – Move Fast: Per South Korea's Assembly and Demonstration Act, notify authorities 48-72 hours prior for assemblies at Gwanghwamun Square, the National Assembly, or public spaces. Emulate Gandhi and King: Display banners celebrating Dr. Han's 65-year impact, chant for equity, broadcast live on X, YouTube, Instagram. Participate in daily watches near Seoul Detention Center, as seen this week. Worldwide, stage online rallies or embassy demonstrations—share with #ReleaseTheMotherOfPeace for viral traction. Urgency: Assemble today given her health peril.
- Elevate Her Legacy Through Media – Disseminate Truth Nonstop: Compose press releases for Yonhap, Reuters, BBC, CNN, KBS, detailing her aid to Korean presidents, economic miracles, and universal harmony. Saturate social media with #ReleaseTheMotherOfPeace #AllWarsCease2026 #TrueLoveRevolution #GPBNet, tagging policymakers and influencers—post addresses, visuals, accounts. Capitalize on this week's online spikes; contribute opinion pieces, propose features underscoring her role in President Lee's victory via peace tenets, against her trial-less confinement.
- Connect with Leaders Directly – Utilize E-Government: Leverage epeople.go.kr for petitions, assembly.go.kr for parliamentary contact, urging bail, treatment, exoneration—reference constitutional infractions and her dedication to Koreans, leaders, and unification. Dispatch letters to every parliamentarian and President Lee, emphasizing her anti-communism, growth boosts, inter-Korean outreach. Expand globally: Appeal to UN, U.S. Congress via online platforms, leveraging IRF drive. Employ GPBNet models for drives; monitor replies weekly.
- Embrace Daily Peace Actions with GPBNet's True Love Revolution – Cultivate Enduring Transformation: Begin with forgiveness contemplations (shed resentments), foster family via joint meals and unity discussions, organize local/online interfaith meetings. Join GPBNet's regular sessions, peace drives, transnational projects. As a Local Ambassador, commit to "One Family Under God," volunteer, generate content for ceaseless social media. This converts individual compassion into communal power—engage virtual prayers, inform on wars, push ceasefires in hotspots. Embody these to tribute Dr. Han's vision and propel the 2026 anti-war surge.
With reverence and resolute optimism, Nicolae Cirpala President, GPBNet | Chief Investigative Journalist, Happy TV News #ReleaseTheMotherOfPeace #AllWarsCease2026
