“”From Beijing to Seoul is 850 miles. An octagenarian is going to walk 850 miles in one day? (Seoul is just the other side of the DMZ.)””
I think your post is being ignored but it doesn’t make sense to me either...Is the Beijing part a mistake??
The article claimed that she was part of a group that was marching from Beijing to South Korea. That’s an 850 mile journey. If that’s a mistake, it’s on the part of the original journalist.
