Korean churches have been searching for the mission strategy toward North Korea and God provided an way for it through the refugees from the country. By the late 1990s, North Korean has sought refuge from chronic food shortage and the earnest mission for North Korea and the refugees was begun from that time. Since then, over 20 years have passed and now 24,000 North Korean defectors entered South Korea and the refugees staying in China reach around 100000 to 300000. God might be preparing the evangelization of North Korea through the refugees increasing in number. Now it is the time for Korean churches to prepare the concrete and practical way for the mission strategy toward North Korea through the refugees. The defectors are the ones who experienced North Korean society as well as South Korean society. They might know how to deliver the Gospel in their hometown most effectively. And the natives would accept it well. Because of their exclusive character, they would call the missionaries from South Korea "the same race", but would not call them "we". Therefore, the missionaries in South Korea have limitation on the mission for North Korea. Having entered South Korea, North Korean defectors are experiencing mental, financial, health problems and cultural differences for settlement. Korean Church should understand such difficulties thoroughly and try to give the right help to them in their lives and help to accept the Gospel. Especially it would be the effective way to deliver the Gospel through the network ministry, systematic bible study, cultural ministry and mentoring ministry. Among them, it is suggested that the one-to-one disciple making is most effective. The idolization of Kim Il Sung is based on the self-reliance ideology. And the ideology and all the methodology teaching the ideology have the combined and modified form of Communism and Christianity. And as an idolization, they put the senior leader into God's place in order to maintain the society stable. They are teaching the self-reliance ideology by following the way of worshiping God and studying bible in the Korea early church. This is why the way of teaching is unwelcome as well as familiar for them. The reason why the author suggests one-to-one disciple making is because it is a totally different method from that of Korea early church and is a good one for approaching toward guarded North Korean. And it cultivates the faculties for them to deliver the Gospel directly to their people after opening the area. The mission strategy for North Korea through the refugees can be divided into those of before and after reunification of South and North. Before reunification, the refugees can be trained thoroughly in faith and deliver the Gospel by calling their family and the people in their hometown. Once they have faith, they can deliver the Gospel to the other refugees who do not know the good news and it can be one of the mission strategies for North Korea. It is also suggested that New Nevius mission plan can be used for the mission strategy after reunification. Nevius mission plan was the right mission strategy chosen by the missionaries who came to 'Joseon'. Even now it still contains the basic concept for the mission. It includes broad tour-mission, independent activity in mission area, bible-centered work, partition of the mission area, gospel preaching for the same race, especially laborers and women. The mission strategy can be applied in North Korea mission. Therefore, it is suggested that the broad mission tour, making strategic footholds, effective area division, medical & mission school and establishing theological colleges. Mission is completed by establishing the theological colleges. If reunified, the North Korean defectors would play an important role in North Korea mission. The mission should be fulfilled by their hands. Ham-Kyeong province where have the most defectors would be a good starting point for the mission. The North Korea mission should be begun and led by them. The disciple training for the defectors is becoming much more important.
