Falun Gong practitioner Gao Chengnu who was successfully rescued arrives in Korea

Korean citizen Guo Binghao and Gao Chengnu got married on May 18, 2003 in China. As Ms. Gao was preparing to emigrate to Korea, the Chinese Police Department refused to issue her a passport because she would not renounce the practice of Falun Gong. On May 7, 2004, she was abducted and detained in the Jiamusi Forced Labor Camp.

In August 2004, Korean Falun Gong practitioners established a "Ms. Gao Chengnu Rescue Committee" and appealed to all the citizens of Korea to join together in rescuing Ms. Gao. During that time, 236,740 kind-hearted Korean citizens signed a petition supporting this effort. Twenty-four congressional representatives drafted a letter to the Chinese government demanding the unconditional release of Ms. Gao and delivered it to Mr. Hu Jintao, the President of China. The Cheonan City Senate, the Chungcheongnam-do Legislative Assembly, and many other organizations, including 71 local parliaments and government groups passed resolutions calling for the Chinese government to unconditionally release Ms. Gao. On the afternoon of May 13, 2005, Ms. Gao Chengnu was released from the Jiamusi Forced Labor Camp. She arrived in Korea at 1:10 p.m. on July 20.

Ms. Gao makes a speech at airport to thank the Korean government and people for their rescue efforts

Being interviewed by several media outlets, Ms. Gao made a speech and said, "I'm grateful to Korean Senators, local parliaments and Korean people for rescuing me, so that I can step on this free democratic land today to breathe fresh air and be reunited with my husband. But tens of thousands of Falun Gong practitioners who cultivate 'Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance' in China are still illegally imprisoned and suffering tribulations."

Finally, she called for all kind-hearted people to show concern over the brutal persecution Falun Gong practitioners have been suffering, and put an end to the unprecedented catastrophe happening in China as soon as possible.
