Tran Van Ty, the leader of Justice for Lai Dai Han (JLDH), has written to 
President Moon Jae-in to ask for South Korea to support an independent 
investigation by the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) into 
allegations of sexual violence during the Vietnam War.

JLDH represents the 'Lai Dai Han,' the thousands of dual heritage 
Korean-Vietnamese children born during the Vietnam War.

In the letter, Tran Van Ty confirms that there are already 50 members of the 
Lai Dai Han community that are willing to undergo blood tests to confirm their 
dual Vietnamese and Korean heritage.

NOTES TO EDITORS

ABOUT THE LAI DAI HAN

Justice for Lai Dai Han campaigns for South Korea to recognise and investigate 
allegations of sexual violence during the Vietnam War.

Justice for Lai Dai Han works with policy makers, writers and artists to ensure 
this injustice is finally recognised, alongside fundraising efforts on behalf 
of the Lai Dai Han and their families. 

Our work seeks to raise public awareness, to allow political and community 
leaders to connect with the victims of sexual violence to understand their 
suffering first hand, and to create public art as a permanent reminder of the 
plight of the Lai Dai Han.
