A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within South Korea Who Chose To Be Featured
796. Catnabbit : I am seeking family member directly related to me.
I have been told I was left with an US Army officer in Daegu with my birthdate pinned to my person. I was approximately 5 months old at the time of abandonment.
My adoption was done privately and expedited by the US military through Holt Children’s Services in Seoul. I have my adoption papers but they are in Korean which I do no read. My parents said I was left at an officer’s residence in Daegu/Taegu.
797. Azndy : I was born August 7‚ 1988 in Seoul‚ South Korea. I went to foster care. My given name was Jung Sung Min. I am unsure if I was named by my foster mother or birth mother. I was adopted through Wide Horizons agency. I believe my parents were teenagers when they had me.
798. Kdubbs325 : I was adopted through Holt adoption agency in Seoul Korea. My birthdate is approximate. My birth name is Sang Jung Choi. Would love to connect with any bio family.
799. Smile1981 : My mothers surname was Choi and my fathers surname is Koh. At the time I was born my birthparents was 22 (mom) and 25 (dad) years old‚ unwed.
I might have been a twin or a triplet
801. Tiphb : My name is Kim Hyun Jin
Birth place : Busan
Father : Kim Yong Kyun 1953
Mother : Moon Kyun Soon 1954
Aunt : Moon Kyun Sook
Cousin : Kyun Min Jung
802. Tclark512 : I was born Mee Jeong Moon and am looking for my birth mother or any family. I was born on or around Nov 25‚ 1984 in Seoul and taken into Eastern Child Welfare Society shortly after. I believe my mother’s name is Myung Sook Moon‚ from Jun La Buk-do‚ and she was around 35 when I was born. Papers that I have say I was a breech birth through Caesarean operation‚ and that she met my father while traveling and he isn’t aware of my birth.
803. Liverrett : We don’t have much information‚ my parents passed away according to Holt International. There was a building fire in Pyeongtaek-si‚ Gyeonggi-do in 2003-4. My name was Kwon Soyoung I think‚ or something similar. There aren’t many records on my family but any information on even the fire or any leads would be well appreciated.
804. Jeehyukkim : My son was born in Seoul‚ South Korea. He has requested to start a birth parent search. We know that his mom was around 28 years old at the time of his birth.
805. Momofsix69 : We used Wide Horizons for Children who worked with Holt Family Services in South Korea in order to find our son. He was born to a young couple who could not care for him and he was immediately placed into a foster home. We adopted him in March 2007 when he was five months old.
809. SuzannePollack60 : My birth mother’s name is/was Shin‚ Kyoo Soon. I’m looking for my twin sister‚ dead or alive. I really need to find her to either be reunited with her‚ or for my own sense of closure if she is deceased. I don’t know if my twin was adopted out or if my birth parents kept her. I know that Holt Children’s Services (now known as Holt International) tried to adopt us both out to the same childless couple but my adoptive mother only wanted me.
810. Danishultz86 : I was brought to an orphanage in Seoul Korea when I was 10 years old. I was adopted to a family in Minnesota. I am now almost 61 years old. I know I have a younger 1/2 brother. We have the same mother. My biological father is an American.
I was matched with my birth mother just minutes after setting up my profile. It turns out that she had been searching for me for years. It's been a joy to connect with her and the rest of my biological family.
