Are there any North Korean defectors on the Autism Spectrum?
SENSITIVE TOPIC
There are a lot of horrifying stories of people trying to escape the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea, known as North Korea. Some of them had to lose their own families and make almost impossible journeys to their freedom.
Are there any North Korean defectors that display any Autism Spectrum traits or have been diagnosed on the Spectrum?
*I am not a North Korean defector myself, I am just a curious Australian person who is interested to find out about the Autism Spectrum around the world.
*If you feel uncomfortable to reply to this forum post, you can ignore this wall of text and carry on.
The number of people who escape North Korea to the free world is tiny.
The proportion of THAT number who are autistic is even tinier. Probably zero. Or comparable to the number of surviving Beatles at best.
So the odds of you getting a real response to this ...well dont hold your breath.
