Choi Kwang-hyouk has been unable to escape his past, and every new
encounter conjures the same images from his previous life: North Korean
refugee, vagrant, amputee.
For years that past weighed heavily on him and he struggled after he was smuggled out of the North to South Korea.
But with his debut at the Paralympics in Pyeongchang this week, the
30-year-old hopes to be defined by his accomplishments and his sport, para ice hockey, in which 10 men slide across the ice on sleighs in a modified form of the game.
