Speaker 0: You said you needed a Chinese girl?
Speaker 1: Yeah. Was supposed to sort of report what I knew about it.
Speaker 0: I was really concerned that it could be, like, related to CCP though.
Speaker 1: I know my dad. But he's, like, straight up coming to party. She could have been a spy even though.
Speaker 2: I don't really know.
Speaker 1: I defied my government for love. I
Speaker 3: would do anything for love, but I won't do that. That was a current foreign service officer at the US State Department casually dropping a poetic and potentially traitorous line. Quote, I defied my government for love.
Speaker 4: My name is Huju Choi. I'm a counselor officer here at the US embassy in Seoul, Korea. My primary role as a as a diplomat is to is to engage, you know, with people in other countries and kinda just be myself and show, you know, show who Americans are and show what America's all about.
Speaker 3: That was mister Choi speaking on behalf of the US embassy in Seoul in 2019. Mister Choi revealed how far he's gone being himself while engaging people in other countries when he admitted to one of our undercover journalists that he dated a Chinese woman last year he suspects was an agent. Now, Daniel Choi has worked with the State Department for almost twenty years and is currently in charge of vetting all student visas from China, a program that recent arrests show have become less about education and rather perhaps a pipeline for infiltration and espionage. This pipeline is actively pumping agents of the communist party into the heart of American industry and innovation. And according to experts like Gordon Chang, the vetting process is already difficult, leaving critical loopholes that are being exploited.
Speaker 5: Well, right now, it is very difficult to vet a Chinese national. And in the past, we've had many Chinese nationals, when they apply for a visa, not disclose, for instance, their role in the People's Liberation Army or their Communist Party membership. There's so many things that we can't verify. And especially as the regime goes to even greater lengths to weaponize, Chinese traveling abroad, we have got to be extremely careful.
Speaker 3: There is a distinct balance, however, between national security and isolationism. According to Stephen Orlins, the president of the National Committee on US China relations, America's golden age of AI growth in Silicon Valley has directly been fueled by the over 80,000 Chinese students who are approved yearly to study in The United States. Mister Orland says revoking these visas will cut off the pipeline and create long term damage.
Speaker 6: Chinese investment in The US is a good thing. It creates jobs in The United States and makes the American people's lives better. But there are people in The United States who believe that academic cooperation between The United States and China is not an American interest. I fundamentally disagree with that. When I went to Silicon Valley and visited all these companies, you look around and it's people
Speaker 3: secretary of state Marco Rubio announced major changes to Chinese student visas, including an aggressive sweep to revoke visas from those with connections to the communist party. In July, 1,350 staff were fired by the state department, including 263 foreign service officers like mister Choi and 15 directly from his office of consular affairs. Now this has left mister Choi, a divorced diplomat, ashamed of his job and in his own words, discouraged and demoralized, making him a perfect target for seduction by a spy.
Speaker 1: For the state's parliament, there's a big cut coming, like, July 1. Sectors like five So some sections will be cut by, like, 50%.
Speaker 3: His reason? He felt it would be unfair.
Speaker 0: You said you needed a Chinese girl?
Speaker 1: Work based on the So she got this work visa to, like, you know, work with this American company that they have a lot of research. They just Yeah. I was supposed to whatever. Yeah. Because I think I know the way it works.
So to report what I The inside? Knew about it. Like, if you're just dating somebody or just like Scotland. Again, like, if they're just a contact and you, you know, play cards with them or something. When they're from like Iran Korea or North Korea
Speaker 0: or Russia or China.
Speaker 1: And I really want get out. Like Makes it more frustrating. I also thought that was like kind of unfair like Like I think We might date, and then we break up, you know, and then, like Yeah. You know, the government still has her information forever. Right?
If I were dating somebody and we were gonna get married, then I would probably If they were from one of these, like, state countries or whatever
Speaker 0: Right.
Speaker 1: Then maybe I would you
Speaker 0: That's like totally valid because it's like, don't they keep a do they, like they keep a record of you and stuff and
Speaker 1: No. Playing with different because you're like You're the 2020 cycle, I was like China? In Beijing. Beijing? Beijing?
They're allowed to take, like, locals at all.
Speaker 3: It's here that Choi surprisingly acknowledges that her father is a member of the communist party and that she may have been a spy herself.
Speaker 0: Were they worried? Like, is there a concern that it could be, like, related to CCP though?
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean They need to, like She could take I know my dad, like the Republican Party. Her dad was, like They've done nothing. Either a presidential or a federal minister of education. Yeah.
Yeah. Because he's, like, straight up coming to party. I don't know. She could have been a spy even though.
Speaker 2: I don't even know. You know
Speaker 1: the way they talk. I don't know.
Speaker 5: Maybe she could have been
Speaker 1: a spy even though. I don't really know. You know the way they talk.
Speaker 3: A sweep of China's limited public database of government officials reveals at least one senior CCP officer with the same last who has served in China's Ministry of Education and specifically student exchanges in the fields of science, technology, and engineering. Whether it was this communist party member or another Zhao that follows Mao, it doesn't change the fact that mister Choi was required to report these dates to the State Department, all part of his duty to defend The United States Of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic. Federal regulations outlined in Security Executive Agent Directive three and the State department's manual 12 f a m clearly state that mister Choi was required to report, quote, within one business day what he considered to be an attempt by a foreign government to seduce a US diplomat, especially if they are related to a senior member of the CCP. Instead, mister Choi concealed the incident and reported it to a woman he met on a dating app, a complete stranger who also could have been a spy. On these dates, mister Choi forgot that he was a US diplomat.
He became, in his words, a random person on the Internet.
Speaker 0: So nice to talk to you. It was a really breath of fresh air.
Speaker 1: I'm a random person on the Internet. A
Speaker 3: random person on the Internet with a top secret clearance and the golden keys for entry for every spy and student in Asia.
Speaker 1: I saw her, like, five times in monthly use. I had this trip. One. Right? It was partially a work trip.
The work portion of it was in Korea. Yeah. But then, like, I also talked on, like Great question. Cambodia, Thailand, and Japan. I know you had between here.
So Quite quite a lot of home. What? Seems so, like, you're not too sure that she wanted to be dating. Right? Yeah.
And she So, you know, before I go on the trip, I'm like, you know, look. It's you know, if it's easier, you can just kinda, like, call it quits now, like, you know Or Right. We're still friends. Like, the water was booted. Cut it.
But she didn't wanna do that. And so she was like, no. No. I don't wanna do that. Like, I just wanna let's just let's just keep it the way it is.
Yeah.
Speaker 3: Mister Choi said he dated the alleged spy Joy Zhao for six weeks, began dating her the week she entered America in September 2024, and she broke up with him as he returned from an official state department trip to key nations in the Asia Pacific. All of which mister Choi made sure to send updates and photos to her in real time.
Speaker 1: You can tell that, like, she's kinda losing interest. Right? I'm getting into the end of my trip, and I'm like, oh, yeah. I'm gonna be I don't gonna be back this Sunday. Right?
And then her her one her one word reply was, oh. Buy it.
Speaker 3: The United States has entered a new era of great power competition, which includes what could be a century long struggle against the communist party of China.
Speaker 5: Article seven and fourteen of the 2017 national intelligence law in China requires every Chinese national and every Chinese entity to commit acts of espionage if they receive a demand from relevant authorities. But even more important, the Communist Party demands absolute obedience of Chinese nationals and Chinese entities. Every Chinese entity or national in our country is a potential threat. We know that Chinese students have been used by the regime to commit acts of espionage.
Speaker 3: Part of the struggle is ensuring that the men and women serving our government don't fall prey to seduction operations and follow the well established rules for reporting contacts and conversations with chemical spies. We demand more from our public servants. That and the truth will preserve us for generations to come. I'm sad to report to you that this is not the beginning. In fact, many people and many federal government agents in DC continue to behave this way.
We demand better, but stay tuned because soon we'll be going to Washington DC and revealing more at the highest levels. Now if you're on the inside of any government agency, NGO, federal, state, local government, and you see corruption, if you know the American people are being lied to, you know who to call, not Ghostbusters, but OMG tips at okeifmediagroup.com, or you can text us at (914) 491-9395, you already see it on the screen, and our journalism team will get back to you.
