Ten years after the Korean CIA imprisoned Kim Doe Jung to prevent him from speaking at-Harvard, the Korean opposition leader finally made it to Cambridge.

Jung was one of four exiled political dissidents who discussed their struggles to secure human rights under repressive governments at an Institute of Politics forum last night.

The Rev. Kenneth Carstens, a South African civil rights activist, Robert Cox, an Argentinian journalist, and Powel Bakowski, a publisher for the Polish underground, joined Jung before an audience of 300.

"I am free because I have been willing to give up everything including my life, if necessary, for our people's cause," said Jung. A former presidential candidate and member of the Korean national assembly, Jung has survived five attempts on his life.

Jung condemned the current Chun regime for denying democratic freedoms and basic human rights.

Although he faces immediate imprisonment and possible death, the dissident said he will return to Korea this year to continue his fight for a new government.
