Kidnapped!

Send us a text

Kidnapping and abduction attempts are on the rise in Korea, with more than nine cases per week. We break down the numbers, the shocking cases from Seoul to Jeju, and the weak court responses that leave parents furious. From lures near schools to drug-laced drinks, we look at why this trend is growing and how authorities and families are responding.

Starting at just $5/month, you can get a lot of extra content, including the following:

• Early episodes
• Video podcasts
• Behind-the-scenes pre-ambles
• "Weird Tales from Korean Lore" - Folktales and ghost stories from folklorist Shawn Morrissey
