A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within South Korea Who Chose To Be Featured
1066. Emileeg88 : I’m a Korean adoptee -born in Busan‚ adopted at 5 months. I was born August 19‚ 1988 as Lee Jee Yung at Busan Adventist hospital. My birth mother was 20 and her surname was Lee at that time. I was in a foster home in Seoul and my adoption was through Holt. The only current info I have is on my birth mother and that she lives in Changwon City‚ Gyeongsangnamdo‚ Korea‚ so I’m looking to make connections and find other relatives
1071. Johanbjorklund : Birth father Sung Soo Kim‚ born around 1959
Birth mother Ok Kyung Kim‚ born around 1965
Both supposedly from Yanggu-gun‚ Gangwon but met in Seoul at a very young age.
I was born in the Ilshin hospital‚ Seoul and immediately placed in foster care.
1072. Kim_YoungHee : Any birth family in Korea.
I was found in YeongDeungPo Gu on October 29‚ 1973 wearing red pants and no shoes. YeongDeungPo police transferred me to the Municipal Children’s Home (trusted by Temporary Reception Center for Missing Children). My birth date was estimated (they measured my teeth and bones and arrived at an estimate) and I was given the name Yung Hee KIMat the Children’s Home.
At the time I was found in YeongDeungPo Gu‚ I was wearing red pants‚ no shoes‚ had 10 teeth on each side‚ could not speak clearly yet‚ could walk‚ could comprehend when spoken to and express myself well.
At the very least‚ I would like to track down my foster family who I think took good care of me. I have a copy of a report by a social worker (Miss Duck Hee KIM with the Child Welfare Department of the Social Welfare Society‚ Inc. formerly Child Placement Services‚ Inc. in Seoul KOREA) who observed my time with the foster family and stated I liked the father best of all.
I went to the Seoul 7th Day Adventist Hospital in November 15-26 of 1973 due to pneumonia.
I was adopted by my American parents in 1975.
I have a small widow’s peak located at the center of my hairline at the top of my forehead. There is a protrusion at the back of my skull that is distinguishable by hand. I have attached ear lobes. I have type O+ blood

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.
