Sol Han was 13 when she disappeared in Toronto in 2012 after arriving in Canada as a North Korean refugee. Records and reporting agree she was new to the city and staying at Romero House, a community residence for newly arrived refugees, but published accounts disagree on her final confirmed sighting date — March 16, 2012 in one listing, February 10, 2012 in contemporaneous police-based reporting. Descriptions consistently note she was very young and vulnerable: roughly 4 feet 11 inches and about 90 pounds in early reports (a later listing gives about 4 feet 9 inches and 80 pounds), with straight black hair to the neck.

Sol had traveled to Canada with her older brother, Huyeok Han, then about 20, and both were reported to have limited English, no known contacts in Toronto, and difficulty navigating independently. Staff at Romero House said the siblings sometimes failed to return at night; attempts to reach Huyeok ended when an unidentified Korean man answered his phone and denied knowing him. Police released Sol’s photo on April 23, 2012 and said they were concerned for her safety but had no public evidence of foul play. No public confirmation has been published about whether the siblings left for South Korea, were harmed, or chose to disappear. Does anyone have information about Sol or Huyeok’s movements after they left Romero House?
