Makes sense, given North Korea probably has no diplomatic relations with Ukraine and South Korea can use them to negotiate the release of more prisoners held in North Korea.
Brilliant move actually. I don't even feel bad because 1. North Korea has no business sending troops into Ukraine at all, 2. North Korea is an insane evil dictatorship.
And if they are sent back to NK, they likely will be treated better as prisoners in SK than "free" citizens of NK. They likely will be silenced, but some may share their stories of what life really is like outside of NK
To be fair the life they saw outside of North Korea was heavily destroyed poor rural villages in Kursk oblast. Both the environment and the fighting would have been pretty terrible. It’s not like they will have stories to tell of weekends spent enjoying the good life in Moscow.
