The Christian missionary and Korean American from the Seattle area has been held by the North Koreans since November of last year.

“His family wants him home,” said Obama at the annual prayer breakfast.  And the United States will continue to do everything in our power to secure his release because Kenneth Bae deserves to be free.”

It’s the first time the President has ever mentioned Bae.
