1. Their world is about to become so much bigger

2. they propably dont know yet but they may now choose the life of celebrities

3. Get any intel you can and then prisoner swap them.

4. >The captives do not speak Ukrainian, English or Russian, so communication with them takes place through Korean interpreters in cooperation with South Korea’s intelligence. 

   If these two were speaking Korean, we would be watching videos of it plastered absolutely everywhere.

5. Deplorable ruzz and vatnikZ: they’re buryats/tova/Kazakhs/bashkirs

6. mein gott. Western mercenaries, volunteers, tank drivers and all the rest are ok though.

7. The birds of shitfeather do flock together.

8. Holy bots, these comments.

9. I’m disappointed they didn’t record them speak Korean.

10. Exposing POW to the public curiosity is a war crime in accordance to the 1949 Geneva Convention.

11. Wouldn’t wanna be their family right now

12. Give them a Mc Donalds, few ice cold beers, and whack on the history channel with subtitles.

13. They just won the lottery in a way

14. This reminds me of Neo from *The Matrix* waking up to the real world.

15. Please be alive by then.

16. [The pictures published violates article 13 of the third Geneva Convention:](https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/ihl-treaties/gciii-1949/article-13/commentary/2020?activeTab=1949GCs-APs-and-commentaries#_Toc42436490)
    >In modern conflicts, the prohibition also covers, subject to the considerations discussed below, the disclosure of photographic and video images, recordings of interrogations or private conversations or personal correspondence or any other private data, irrespective of which public communication channel is used, including the internet.

    >Accordingly, any materials that enable individual prisoners to be identified must normally be regarded as subjecting them to public curiosity and, therefore, may not be transmitted, published or broadcast.

17. Again, parading prisoners around in the media is a breach of the geneva convention…

18. President Zelenskyy “Our soldiers have captured North Korean military personnel in the Kursk region. Two soldiers, though wounded, survived and were transported to Kyiv, where they are now communicating with the Security Service of Ukraine.

    This was not an easy task: Russian forces and other North Korean military personnel usually execute their wounded to erase any evidence of North Korea’s involvement in the war against Ukraine.

    I am grateful to the soldiers of Tactical Group No. 84 of the Special Operations Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, as well as our paratroopers, who captured these two individuals.

    As with all prisoners of war, these two North Korean soldiers are receiving the necessary medical assistance.

    I have instructed the Security Service of Ukraine to grant journalists access to these prisoners. The world needs to know the truth about what is happening.”

19. South Korean officers will love this.

20. Uh, frankly, would have blurred those poor blokes’ faces, because their family now risk to stand in front of an AA gun 😐

21. I would like to see their reaction to a city like Kyiv. Their life would never be the same after such a “trip”

22. They should not be shown. If they have families in NK those people are going to be jailed and probably worse.

23. Probably the only POW that are glad to be captured

24. Their families are probably dead now.
