Choe In-guk is the son of two South Korean diplomats who also fled to North Korea during the 80s.
As North Korean media report, he will live in North Korea and work endlessly at the unification of two Koreas.
Fleeing from South Korea to North is a very rare occasion, since in most cases it is the citizens of North Korea who flee to South Korea.
These two countries are technically still at war, and for this, southeastern citizens need special permission to visit North Korea.
Experts consider that if Choe has not respected the laws of South Korea and has not requested permission, he could be arrested as he returns to South Korea.
Choe is a 73-year-old South Korean citizen, but little is known of his personal life or political views.
North Korean media have also reported on Choe's arrival, which have reported that officials in this country have been waiting for him as best he is.
