According the report, most of the victims who were coerced, sold, or trafficked were women and girls aged between 12-29.
The report compiled its data from research and interviews with victims of sexual violence in China and survivors in South Korea over a two-year period.
The abuse and exploitation is so prevalent because North Korean defectors face repatriation back to their homeland by the Chinese government, the report says. Those who are sent back to North Korea often face torture, interrogation and sometimes execution, it added. "Victims are prostituted for as little as 30 Chinese yuan , sold as wives for just 1,000 yuan , and trafficked into cyber-sex dens for exploitation by a global online audience," Yoon said.
