Yuhan Foundation Gives Scholarships to 50 N. Korea-born College Students

A Seoul-based nonprofit charity organization says it delivered a total of 150 million won in scholarships to 50 college students who were born in North Korea and are currently studying in South Korean universities.
 
The Yuhan Foundation said Friday it gave each of the 50 students three million won to ensure a stable basis for their studies. The recipients were selected through the Korea Hana Foundation, a public agency set up to help North Korean defectors' settlement in the South. 
 
The head of the Yuhan Foundation Han Seung-soo expressed hope that the recipients will commit themselves to patriotism and unification as key players of a unified Korea.
