A Columbia University student, Yunseo Chung, who immigrated to the US from South Korea at the age of 7, has filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration to prevent deportation. The complaint seeks to halt the deportation process, allowing Chung to remain in the country. As an undocumented immigrant, Chung's case highlights the ongoing debate over immigration reform and the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. With the support of his community, Chung is fighting to stay in the US, where he has spent most of his life. The lawsuit is a significant development in the ongoing struggle for immigrant rights.
