Unexplained Deaths of Expats in Korea
Manage episode 485454511 series 2851093
Death is inevitable, but for many expats in Korea, the cause of death remains a mystery. In this episode, we delve into the unsettling number of unexplained deaths among foreign nationals living in Korea. From recent tragedies like the case of a Bangladeshi man who collapsed on the dance floor in Hongdae to the broader statistics of migrant workers and their untimely deaths, we explore the lack of answers, the lack of government response, and the issues surrounding the treatment of migrant workers in Korea. Why are so many expat deaths unexplained? And why does the government seem to ignore the issue, especially when migrant workers are so vital to the country’s economy?
