North Korean Defectors Arrive In South Korea

405773 03: North Korean asylum seekers and their relatives, who escaped from North Korea last June and live in Seoul, wave to the news media upon on their arrival May 23, 2002 at Inchon International Airport west of Seoul. Five North Koreans, two men, two women and a three-year-old girl dragged from a Japanese consulate in China arrived in South Korea on Thursday, ending a bitter two-week feud between Beijing and Tokyo. Japan and China have been trapped in a diplomatic dispute since Chinese guards dragged the five from Japan's mission in the northeastern city of Shenyang on May 8 while Japanese diplomats stood by.
