Product Description
Air Date: 01/28/07 Joe Dresnok could be the ultimate runaway. In 1962, Dresnok was an American soldier serving in South Korea when he made an irreversible decision: he crossed the DMZ into North Korea. After that, Dresnok wasn't heard from for 44 years, until recently, when he decided to tell two British filmmakers about his life in one of the world's most isolated, inaccessible countries. Bob Simon reports on one of the oddest stories to come out of the Cold War.
