Story[edit]
In the 1980s, the South Korean government created summer camps, especially for teenagers born abroad, called "gyopo". This allowed them to spend the summer in Seoul to learn more about their homeland. Although the intentions of the camps were honorable, the activities of the teenagers were the opposite. The program was eventually canceled because the government had no control over the young people.
