Children of kidnapped Japanese released by North Korea
I am happy to see that some of the families will be able to be reunited in Japan. The only family that will not be reunited will be the one with the alleged U.S. Army deserter Charles Jenkins and his children. I honestly do not think he will be leaving North Korea with the possibility of being arrested and court martialed in the U.S.

The biggest question I have is how are these children going to be able to adjust to Japanese society? Will they be "re-educated", "de-programmed"? I have heard that these kids really did not know that they were really Japanese and not Korean. Surely some intense immersion of Japanese culture, customs, society, language, and history is planned for them. It will not be easy for them but I am sure their families will get them through it.
