My korean name was Kim‚ Soo Ran adopted through Holts Children’s services 376-1‚ Chang Jun Dong‚ Ma Po Ku‚ Seoul‚ Korea. On my paperwork family origin says Han Yang but I’ve read that is a common name that Holt gives to abandoned children. Kang Neung Baby Home and Green Meadow Baby Home were also listed on a sheet could be where I stayed. My brother and I were adopted together at age 3 and 4. I’m starting my search and not sure where to go from here?
