I recommend to my family, friends and viewers. 20 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,679 Speaker 2: All Right, So, for those who didn't see our show yesterday, 21 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 2: these are the two sons of Pastor son, who is 22 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 2: a pastor that Charlie met while he was in Korea. 23 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 2: That was the last international trip he took. He met 24 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 2: with him, and just a very short time later, I 25 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 2: think literally one or. 26 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 3: Two days correct, he was two. 27 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:34,959 Speaker 2: Days he was arrested by Korean authorities for the alleged 28 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:39,199 Speaker 2: that his political activities amounted to criminal behavior. And there's 29 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 2: been a lot of threats like that against Christian pastors 30 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,919 Speaker 2: in South Korea. For those who don't know, South Korea 31 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 2: actually is a quite Christian country. It has one of 32 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 2: the highest numbers of Christian believers in Asia, especially East Asia, 33 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 2: And so we've been following that story and we wanted 34 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 2: to have them on again. 35 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. 36 00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 4: I'll also add we were backstage when I think it 37 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 4: was my dad he brought pastor's son over and he said, 38 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 4: you know, he's been speaking up. They're arresting pastors. He 39 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 4: might get arrested. And Charlie and I kind of looked 40 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 4: at each other and we're like, surely not. 41 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 2: We hear about that in the US. Like all these guys, 42 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 2: there's a lot of guys in the US will see 43 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 2: like I'm being persecuted. I'll take that risk of getting arrested. 44 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 2: It never actually yes, So. 45 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 4: We're like no, like for what he's like, oh, talking 46 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 4: about politics from the pulpit during an off election season, 47 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 4: like breaking you can go into that. But we're like, no, 48 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 4: no way, and Charlie goes, okay, I'll tell you what 49 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 4: gives me the phone. He's like, take a picture. And 50 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 4: as they take the picture, Charlie goes, I took that 51 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 4: photo because if and when you get arrested, I'm going 52 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 4: to post it everywhere and blasted on social media to 53 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 4: make sure I get you out of prison. And so 54 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 4: the reason we're doing this podcast, and the reason why 55 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 4: all of us have been so just invested in the 56 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:01,079 Speaker 4: story is because Charlie was literally personally invested in the story. 57 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 4: And so if you guys could tell us exactly why 58 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 4: he was arrested and then also just kind of that story, 59 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 4: it was so great, meaning, guys, backstage at that event. 60 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,080 Speaker 5: Before I started off with my father's story, it was 61 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 5: an honor to meet Mikey and Charlie Kirk in the backstage. 62 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 5: I was there about Mikey when pastor a while reached 63 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 5: out to Charlie and Mikey introducing my father. I didn't 64 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 5: not know that my father would be arrested two days 65 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 5: after because not a lot of Christians and also even 66 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 5: the family members, we didn't know that he would be 67 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 5: arrested because the arrest warrant. We read the whole forty 68 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 5: nine pages of that and it was absurd because the 69 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 5: mainly it was politically he was violating the political neutrality 70 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 5: from the pulpit. But when we go back to Covid lockdown, 71 00:03:55,920 --> 00:04:00,240 Speaker 5: my father was the only mana church pastor that didn't 72 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 5: surrender worship and it was to a point where the 73 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 5: church was literally lockdown and they putes around the church. 74 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 3: Police went to the church and force of the. 75 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 5: Government officials did that and we still worshiped outside increasing 76 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 5: the temperature. And ever since then, my father has been 77 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 5: the symbol of Christian conservatism in Korea and he has 78 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 5: been the biggest threat to the leftist government because he 79 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 5: would be so vocal he speak out, just like how 80 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,159 Speaker 5: Pastor Bob has been doing as well during Kobe lockdown 81 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 5: as well. 82 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, my wife's family is here too and 83 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 4: they have a similar story from their grandfather, but also 84 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 4: them having been persecuted in the Soviet Union and Joseph 85 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 4: Vanderingo he has an amazing story. He's still alive. He 86 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 4: has a great book called KGB's Most Wanted. But they 87 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 4: have such a similar story. And this is actually how 88 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 4: they've met. My dad is during in the Soviet Union, 89 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:00,720 Speaker 4: he was running one of the biggest underground t networks 90 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 4: and he was arrested for it and put in the gulag, 91 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 4: and then he got out, did it again and was 92 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 4: arrested again. And so they came to America and they 93 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:14,159 Speaker 4: saw that my dad was facing you know, hundreds of 94 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,839 Speaker 4: thousands of dollars in fines, in possible jail time, and 95 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,559 Speaker 4: had to go to court and get a legal team. 96 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:24,160 Speaker 4: And our congregants were getting fined just simply for worshiping 97 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 4: during COVID and they're like, wait, this is really scary. 98 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,039 Speaker 4: This reminds us what we came from in the Soviet Union. 99 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 4: And so now they're seeing that in your dad, and 100 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 4: we're all seeing that, and so this is a warning sign. 101 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 4: This is Korea, but this could also come to America exactly. 102 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 3: That's why we're here. 103 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 4: And is this something you ever thought you would have 104 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:44,720 Speaker 4: to deal with with your dad? You never thought your 105 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 4: dad would have to get arrested. 106 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:49,919 Speaker 5: Surely, so ever, since COVID lockdown again, my father sold 107 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 5: six lawsuits out of sixteen he's facing is from lockdown. 108 00:05:55,200 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 5: And yeah, it's upsurd for just simply worshiping, not following 109 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,840 Speaker 5: the guideline. And we still didn't know that even though 110 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:07,480 Speaker 5: he was going through sixteen lawsuits, we didn't even imagine, 111 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 5: We couldn't imagine that my father would actually be imprisoned. 112 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 5: And that's because So to give you a little bit 113 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 5: of context, what's going on in Christian community right now 114 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:23,160 Speaker 5: is in Korea, ten million Christians out of fifty million 115 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 5: are Christians. However, the misconcept and misleading idea of separation 116 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 5: between the church and state has been implemented among Christians. 117 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 5: Even so, actually, we've invited Pastor Robb multiple times going 118 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,720 Speaker 5: back three four years ago, and he has awakened a 119 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 5: lot of Christians in Korea and giving us encouragement and 120 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 5: told us to be courageous, just like how Bible tells us. 121 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:58,599 Speaker 5: And that's been basically moving Christian movement in Korea as well. 122 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, you and I talked with Charlie a ton about 123 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 4: the low birth rate in Korea. It's the lowest in 124 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 4: the What Charlie. 125 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 3: Spoke about at the event is it think it's the 126 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 3: lowest in the world. 127 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 2: It's about point seven per so it means on average, 128 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 2: their rate is such that the average woman in Korea 129 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 2: would have point seven children by the time she's finished. 130 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 4: And so just to put that into perspective, point seven 131 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 4: the extinction rate of Korea at that rate, it's one. 132 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 2: Hundred more hundred grandparents will have about thirty five thirty 133 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 2: six kids who will have twelve grandchildren. 134 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 4: And so the extinction rate is four times that of 135 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 4: COVID nineteen. And your dad is facing fines, in jail 136 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 4: time and needs currently in prison for what he did 137 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 4: during COVID nineteen, when your entire country is shut down 138 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 4: everything for something that doesn't even have the same extinction 139 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,040 Speaker 4: rate as their current birth rate exactly, and they're not 140 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 4: even doing anything to combat the birth rate right now 141 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 4: they say they are, they're really. 142 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, it's not going it's not improving. 143 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 3: So do the pastors talk about that. 144 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 2: I guess it was so interesting to me when I 145 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 2: was I was in Seoul for about a week and 146 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 2: I just felt like I didn't see children at all. 147 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 3: I think I saw one toddler. 148 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,119 Speaker 2: It was in a McDonald's and they had squeaky shoes 149 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 2: that made a rubber ducky sound every time they. 150 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 3: Took a step, and that was about it. Very Korean 151 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 3: and very Korean. 152 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 2: So I guess, yeah, I know that's not on the 153 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 2: topic of getting arrested, But what do what do pastors 154 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 2: say about that? Is there an awareness of like do 155 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 2: they say our country is going to go extinct if 156 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 2: we don't do what every generation prior to us did 157 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 2: pretty much automatically. 158 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 3: Yeah. 159 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 5: So the very law my father has been arrested for 160 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 5: and in prison four is election law violation. It's because 161 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 5: my father criticized a political candidate for pushing lgbtagend into 162 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:59,839 Speaker 5: schools and even church not being able to preach about 163 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 5: I know what's simple and what's not, and also a 164 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 5: candidate that promised to appoint thirty percent of the government 165 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 5: of positions for sexual minorities, and as a pastor, my 166 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 5: father had to say something about that. And because of 167 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 5: that skill was being too political. And because of risk 168 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:23,839 Speaker 5: of flight, my father has been imprisoned. But my father 169 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 5: has been serving the same community, same area for the 170 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 5: last thirty three years without even taking a sabbatical, and 171 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 5: risk of flight is just an absurd reason. 172 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, And I mean, the church is the only one 173 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 4: that's bringing the message to have more children than you 174 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 4: can afford. The church is the only one that's providing 175 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 4: a community to support families even when they can't afford 176 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,080 Speaker 4: cost of living and to find jobs. In Korea, the 177 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 4: church is the one that's actually helping this existential birth 178 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 4: rate that's going to eviscerate your country in this ancient 179 00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 4: civilization that you guys have. It's really sad to see 180 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 4: that the government, instead of partnering with that, is turning 181 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 4: on it and saying, instead of partnering with them, let's 182 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 4: jail the pastors hire all the people that can't have 183 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 4: kids because they're gay. And then that's. 184 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 3: What you're saying. 185 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,439 Speaker 4: He said thirty They wanted to hire thirty percent of 186 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 4: the government workforce as sexual minorities. So you're referring to 187 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,559 Speaker 4: gay people, and Blake correct me. 188 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 3: That would lower the gay rate in our government. They 189 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 3: that would lower the Yeah, it's it's it's sad to see. 190 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, So tell me about your your story. How do 191 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 4: you fit in? 192 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:42,680 Speaker 6: One problem in South Korea is, for instance, young Christian 193 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 6: women women they do not want to have baby. Actually, 194 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 6: it's ridiculous, that's weird. 195 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 3: The Bible says they should. 196 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 6: Yeah, but there's no Christian word you actually in South 197 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 6: Korea churches and among Christians. So that's the problem of 198 00:10:56,160 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 6: South Korea. And that results in the I think my 199 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 6: father finally and during COVID nineteen there are lots of 200 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 6: megachurch in South Grade. You know, maybe the biggest church 201 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,320 Speaker 6: is South in South Korea, full constat church. Yeah, and 202 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,319 Speaker 6: so in soult but their biggest in. 203 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:15,680 Speaker 3: The world, biggest in the world. 204 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 6: But pastors think like there are seventy percent conservative people, 205 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 6: but there are thirty percent Democrats. Democrats is in the church. 206 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 6: So they gave up to speak speak speak up about 207 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 6: birthrate or that kind of thing. So because it. 208 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 5: Would make a lot of people uncomfortable. M hm, even 209 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 5: although it was one third of the Christian population. Are 210 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 5: you guys married, My brother's married, dear kids, yeah, two kids. 211 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 2: Ah, single handedly triple in the country's birth rate. 212 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 5: Yes, and I have much more. Yeah, I love it anymore. 213 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 5: And once I get married, I should get married soon. Yeah, 214 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,840 Speaker 5: something I need to learn. Or Mike as well, I'm 215 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 5: you know, many many much older than he is, but 216 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 5: much respect for you man. 217 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 4: Thank you, I get married young. Ed's all, Charlie, is 218 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 4: what it is. So what what is the best way 219 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 4: to get your dad out of prison right now? And 220 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 4: how long is his sentenced? 221 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:20,960 Speaker 6: So which is unpresented? 222 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 5: The prosecutors ask for one year imprisonment and this this 223 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 5: is absurd because when you look at the legal presidents 224 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 5: for the electional violation, even the ones that have ran 225 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 5: for the office, they have only gotten fined. So it's 226 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 5: not much of a you know, criminal thing that you 227 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 5: know you would get in prison for. But prosecutors asking 228 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 5: me one for one year imprisonment is absurd and it 229 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 5: could be up to one year. But so as sons, 230 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 5: we personally want my father to be released because they're 231 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 5: going after the church, church members, assistant pastors, and police 232 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 5: accessing my family's telecommunication education logs multiple times for investigation, 233 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 5: and they could add more charges to my father's case 234 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,960 Speaker 5: so they can lock him up again. But long term wise, 235 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 5: we need not only South Koreans, but American and also 236 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 5: Christians in the world to raise voices to secure releases, 237 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 5: freedom and freedom of religious education. And I believe that 238 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,719 Speaker 5: that is what's essential in looking at this case and 239 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 5: know that that this will come to your door someday, everybody. 240 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 7: This is Andrew Covett, executive producer of The Charlie Kirk Show. 241 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,679 Speaker 7: BURNA is proud to continue supporting Charlie Kirk's mission and 242 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 7: the important work of turning Point USA because empowering Americans 243 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,600 Speaker 7: to defend their freedoms begins with protecting themselves, their families, 244 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 7: and their communities.

And that was your dad, 291 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 4: and he's paying the consequences of that. And on top 292 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 4: of that, the donors were targeted, they pulled all their funds. 293 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 4: It makes me furious at your government one but two, 294 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 4: it also makes me really upset at the pastors who 295 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 4: aren't willing to say I don't care if I go 296 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 4: to jail like Charlie. These people declined a meeting with Charlie, 297 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 4: and he gave his entire life, everything that he had 298 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 4: to offer, He sacrificed, quite literally to the point of death. 299 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 4: And these pastors can't even be brave enough to go 300 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 4: to a meeting because they're afraid of losing their congregation, 301 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 4: in their paycheck and their comfortability, and so honestly they 302 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 4: need to probably be ashamed of themselves and use this 303 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 4: as an opportunity to repent and stand up and for 304 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 4: your dad, we need to use this as an opportunity 305 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 4: to blast this message as far as it can go 306 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 4: and to the people that are watching this too. This 307 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 4: is Charlie was heavily invested in your dad's story. He 308 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 4: took that picture because he wanted to get your dad 309 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 4: out of prison, and he didn't even know he was 310 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 4: in prison yet. And so I, whatever it is, we 311 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 4: want to help. But the more your story can be 312 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 4: out there, the better.

And he was like, just don't 415 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,199 Speaker 4: arrest pastors. It's not that difficult, and it's like it 416 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,119 Speaker 4: really is that simple, and like everybody's like, no, you 417 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,160 Speaker 4: cannot talk to the media, you can't talk, and Charlie 418 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,159 Speaker 4: is like I left him with one sentence, and like 419 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 4: that's all they deserve.

Stop arresting pastors. 421 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 2: And this is a place where we should have leverage. 422 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,679 Speaker 2: There are thirty thousand US troops in Korea, Yes, spend 423 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 2: billions of dollars is to secure that country's independence from 424 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:08,199 Speaker 2: the north from China, and I feel it would be 425 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 2: reasonable for us to say, you know, and you know, 426 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 2: we have our trade disputes or whatever, but I think 427 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,920 Speaker 2: it's reasonable to say, if we're going to have thirty thousand. 428 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 3: Troops there, yeah, don't arrest pastors things. Well, well I 429 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 3: don't even. 430 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:21,680 Speaker 4: Think you guys love MacArthur of course, okay, so respected. 431 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's where they built I think the monument to 432 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 2: when they were memorializing Charlie after what happened. I think 433 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,920 Speaker 2: they were at that statue as an Inchon. 434 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 4: Inchon and your dad's church is in Busan in yes, Okay, 435 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:33,639 Speaker 4: got it. 436 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 3: So we stopped. 437 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:37,680 Speaker 4: Charlie wanted to see the MacArthur's statue. But you talk 438 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,679 Speaker 4: to any Korean there and there's a deep sense of 439 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 4: gratitude for America, and so I like, this is where 440 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:49,399 Speaker 4: Americans can come in and leverage that gratitude that Koreans have, 441 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 4: because it only goes so far. You start arresting pastors 442 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 4: and you start betraying the values that connect us. 443 00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:57,360 Speaker 3: I don't I. 444 00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:01,639 Speaker 4: Don't really foresee us being friends allies.

I went to they 448 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 2: have a museum and memorial to the Korean War, and 449 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 2: they have much like our Vietnam memorial has all the 450 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,679 Speaker 2: names of the soldiers who died in Vietnam. They have 451 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 2: that and they have it for all the Korean soldiers 452 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 2: who died, but also for all of the American soldiers 453 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 2: who died and any other countries. Yeah that fought as 454 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 2: part of that coalition. 455 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,119 Speaker 4: Yeah, I actually think this. I want to ask you 456 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:31,679 Speaker 4: about this too, because I think it's even scarier that 457 00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 4: this is. Like step one for Korea in the Korean 458 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 4: government is like, oh, arrest the pastors that say that 459 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 4: thirty percent of your hiring load in the government should 460 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 4: be gay. 461 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:45,199 Speaker 3: Like, let's do that. 462 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 4: Let's arrest them.
