US ARMY VETERAN PARDONED, MAY GET A CHANCE TO COME HOME -- Korean-born U.S. Army veteran Sae Joon Park, who self-deported to South Korea after nearly five decades in the United States, has received a pardon from New York Governor Kathy Hochul. The pardon clears the two convictions that contributed to his removal order. -- Park, a Purple Heart recipient who was wounded while serving in the 1989 U.S. military operation in Panama, left the country in June 2025 after immigration authorities told him he could face detention and deportation. He had been living in the U.S. since he was seven. -- The pardon does not automatically allow Park to return to the United States. However, his lawyers can now seek to reopen his immigration case and ask the Board of Immigration Appeals to consider vacating his removal order. His attorney says the decision gives Park and his family renewed hope that he may eventually return home. -- Visit: [www.jadetimes.com] Photo Credit: NPR -- #SaeJoonPark #USArmy #ArmyVeteran #PurpleHeart #Veteran #Immigration #Deportation #Pardon #KathyHochul #NewYork #SouthKorea #UnitedStates #USImmigration #Veterans #Military #ImmigrationReform #USNews #BreakingNews #WorldNews #CurrentAffairs #JadeTimes #NewsUpdate #InternationalNews
