The Brothers' Home (Korean: 형제복지원) was an internment camp located in Busan, South Korea during the 1970s and 1980s. During its operation, it held 20 factories and thousands of people who were rounded up off of the street, the homeless some of whom were children, in addition to college students who were protesting the regime. Only 10% of internees were actually homeless.[1] The camp was home to some of the worst human rights abuses in South Korea during the period, which were exposed in AP and CNN articles in 2016.[2][3][4]
The South Korean government called the Brothers' Home and other similar concentration camps opened by the Chun Doo-hwan regime during the fourth and fifth republics "welfare centers".
A DW news article reports a minimum of 516 people died over the course of 20 years at the Brothers' Home.[5] Widespread torture was common in these welfare centers.[4][1] In the 1990s, construction labourers dug up about 100 human bones on the mountain just outside where it stood.
