Sae Joon Park, a 55-year-old Purple Heart veteran who has lived in the United States for 48 years, self-deported to South Korea on Monday, after being notified by Immigration and Customs Enforcement that he has to leave the US within three weeks or he would be detained and forcibly deported.
The Purple Heart is a military decoration awarded to those wounded or killed while serving the US military.
Also on Monday, the Supreme Court lifted an order from a federal judge who had placed restrictions on the Donald Trump administration from deporting foreigners to countries where they have no previous ties.
