Thirty-three North Koreans will be executed on charges that they attempted to overthrow the regime of Kim Jong Un, according to South Korean newspaper Chosun Ilbo.

A source inside North Korea said that they were accused of cooperating with South Korean Baptist missionary Kim Jung-wook to set up 500 underground churches in North Korea.

In addition, the source told the newspaper that the North Koreans will be put to death in a cell at the State Security Department because of the anti-state crimes.
