A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within South Korea Who Chose To Be Featured
871. Siblingsearchskorea : Our son was adopted from S. Korea‚ born in Seoul. We were contacted by our Agency in Oct. 2011 that his birth Mother had another baby (boy) and put him up for adoption with another agency. They boys are a 1.5 years apart and have different birth fathers‚ but they are of the same ethnicity‚ (you will know what that means if reading this)
874. JohnLeeChapman : Hello‚ want to tell my birth mother thank you for choosing the hard decision to give me a chance at life. I’ve gone onto live a wonderful life and now have a family with 3 adopted children of our own.
Through Ancestry DNA I was able to locate my biological father. He was a US GI stationed in Korea named Rodney Trimble from Pennsylvania. He left Korea about April 1978.
My birth certificate says I was born 25 Nov 1978 and was adopted to US GI‚ Dannie and Chun Cha Chapman.
My adoptive mother had a child out of wedlock and her child located her in 2010. From that experience and comfort knowing her child grew up OK‚ my adoptive mother requested that I seek to locate my biological mother to fill a most likely void to let her know that I grew up OK and have a family with 3 adopted children of our own.
Social Welfare Services (SWS) serviced my adoption and unfortunately will not release the name of my biological mother. The only other clues I have is that she was 1. Last name is Lee (my parents honored that by making it my Middle name) 2. In the Seoul area 3. Gave a pink blanket to my biological mother when I was an infant (see profile picture).
Thank you for reading!
875. JenniferLarson : I was given the name Song Jin Yung and a birth date of April 6‚ 1974. I was found in October 1974 at a train station and spent some time at Bethelwon Orphanage (now closed) before I was sent to Holt Korea. I remained there until I left the country April 1‚ 1975.
876. Debbiebarbosa2002 : I was born in Korea and my birth mother kept me for 2 years before she gave me up for adoption to an American military man and his Korean wife. I took the ancestry test and found my biological father. He is deceased‚ but his sister who is still alive told me she met my mom but does not remember much about her other than her name was Xian and she was maybe 16. Her Korean father was stationed in California and he was available to bring his family. My birth mother met my dad and ran away with him to his home state Idaho to introduce his parents and siblings. She was there for a few week before her dad found her and sent her back to Korea where she found out she was pregnant. I would love to connect with my birth mom. Please reach out to me if my story sounds familiar. Thank you. Debbie
878. KathyGaron : I was born as Whang Ok Jung in Busan‚ South Korea. After my father died‚ my mother gave me the opportunity to move to Seoul and stay in an orphanage with the expectation that I would be adopted by a single female doctor in Hawaii ... but it never happened. Ultimately I was adopted by a couple in Minnesota. I have been back to So. Korea once since then‚ but have lost track of my siblings. My mother likely passed away by now. I have posted photos of my siblings on Facebook and Banet.
880. LLSkib : I was told‚ that I was born the 25th of april 1978‚ and brought to KSS in Seoul the day after.
In my papers it says‚ I was the child of a young single mother‚ who worked on a factory.
Her name was Lee Mi Soon and her birthday 24 th of march 1958. But I’m not sure if that’s true.
I was given the korean name Lee Sun Mi and I came to Denmark th 15th of july 2978.
881. Leechoonjadk : I’m looking for my birth mom with the last name Lee (according to my adoption papers‚ my father is dead‚ but this could be false information). She was born in 1955 and my father was born in 1950. My parents had a girl at the age of 1 when I was born.

Birthplace: 207-47 Junghwa 2-dong‚ Jungnan-Gu. Park Jinbae Obstetrics and Gynecology.
