Details of adoption:
Born Nov 18‚ 1986. Have an older brother named Kim Joon Young who was born in 1984. Parents met in 1982. Family origin says Han Yang. When my older brother was born‚ mother could not care for child and had possible mental breakdown. My parents separated in March of 1986‚ so it's possible that my father and my brother do not know I exist. My older brother was placed with paternal grandparents. When I was born‚ my maternal aunt cared for me‚ and then couldn't so brought me to my paternal grandparents. My paternal grandparents couldn't care for me as they were already taking care of my brother‚ so then my paternal aunt tried to care for me‚ but it didn't work out with her in-laws‚ so at about 6 months old I was placed for adoption. My paperwork says my mother was put into an asylum. I was in a center‚ and then with a foster family in Seoul‚ and then I got chicken pox which delayed my travel. At 8 months old I was flown to the USA and adopted in Syracuse NY.
