Front desk staff do not speak much English, but are very helpful. You may wish to take a translator with you if you prefer, though the process would be fine to do with the assistance of a translation app such as ChatGPT. Just be sure to translate to POLITE Korean! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/5643bf86-7197-4001-a186-6c1585ab9e26/TRC-Logo.jpg PAPERSLIP BLOG: INFO HUB FOR TRC 3 AND IMPORTANT NEWS UPDATES - Guide to the TRC 3 KOREAN form for Adoptees submitting INDEPENDENTLY.

The commission’s work focused primarily on KSS and Holt, the only two Korean Adoption Agencies that placed children in Denmark. Since 2018, we have worked closely with the KSS Adoptee community, and since 2020, Paperslip has been the only platform in the world created by and for KSS Adoptees. Through this work, we have been in contact with hundreds of KSS Adoptees, giving us a rare, “bird’s eye” perspective. From this vantage point, we were able to observe how the Danish “Korean Rights” group engaged with Adoptees who submitted cases to TRC 2. What we witnessed between 2022 and 2025 raises serious concerns — and we are here to share those experiences with you as a warning. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/1773373175385-AGZJ70N53HMM52KNW7SM/Blind+Driver.jpeg PAPERSLIP BLOG: INFO HUB FOR TRC 3 AND IMPORTANT NEWS UPDATES - A Korean Adoptee group’s false claims about the NIRS fire and TRC 2 records raise concerns about accuracy and accountability.

We know that everyone makes mistakes — but what concerns us most is that instead of accepting and acknowledging when they are wrong, this Korean Adoptee led group seems to just DOUBLE DOWN on the misinformation, even in the face of clear FACTS. And instead of simply editing or correcting their information like a rational person would, they instead simply BLOCK and GHOST those who disagree with them — even, or especially, when they are WRONG. This is emblematic of the years long behavior of these Korean Adoptee led groups which are organizing Adoptees’ submissions for TRC 3.

Hanja is an older version of Korean which is a mix of Chinese and Korean — which most modern Koreans cannot read / speak / translate. This paragraph of information on page 3 is important because it often provides a more truthful tidbit of information about a KSS Adoptee’s past than the more often falsified ENGLISH Adoptive Child Study Summary. Because NCRC does not have a regular Hanja translator on staff — and because there are regular staff changes every 2-3 years in general within government — this Hanja text translation is causing delays in fulfillment of Petition for Adoption Information Disclosure requests by KSS Adoptees. NCRC likely does not want to disclose more than they are allowed by law, but typically this paragraph does NOT contain birth parent names, meaning that withholding disclosure based on NCRC’s inability to translate this Hanja text is typically unnecessary. *Please note that the document above is an example of a late 1960s / 1970s / early 1980s style of the Korean Adoptive Child Study Summary. Our original research showed that the STYLE of the Korean Adoptive Child Study Summary changed over time. In later versions of this document, Hanja was phased out, and only Hangul was used. Hangul is what is now considered to be “regular” Korean. https://www.paperslip.org/paperslip-blog/test-blog-title monthly 0.5 2026-03-10 https://www.paperslip.org/home daily 0.75 2026-02-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/7bdb727a-3e60-4ba0-b4ee-00c63b58bde6/KSS.jpg Home - Make it stand out Above: The KSS Receiving Home (Left) which was the main building of its main campus in Seoul (Right). KSS was an Orphanage and Korean Adoption Agency in one. The original KSS campus no longer exists — it was torn down in 2016. There is just one remaining Post Adoption Services building on the edge of the old KSS campus. However, KSS no longer processes Post Adoption Services after June 15th, 2025. KSS and ALL Korean Adoptees can now only submit birth family search requests to NCRC via the KAS website. Please click here for information on the old KSS Receiving Home and old KSS campus. While some children were housed at KSS’ main campus in Seoul between 1964-2012 (probably no more than around 150 children at any given time), the vast majority of children who were adopted through KSS to the West were housed offsite at KSS’ “Feeder Orphanages”. See a list of all known KSS Feeder Orphanages below. Please click here for information on KSS’ “Feeder Orphanages” — such as Nam Kwang Orphanage in Busan, Star of the Sea Orphanage in Incheon, Choon Hyun Babies Home in Gwangju, Church Social Service Choong Nam in Hong Song, YangJu Orphanage in Dongducheon and others. KSS was served by a network of the above mentioned Feeder Orphanages, Maternity Clinics, Hospitals, Single Unwed Mothers Homes, Police Stations, Churches, etc. The full scope of KSS’ child acquisition network for adoption may never be fully known. In addition to these sources, some birth parents or relatives are also known to have relinquished children directly to KSS in Seoul. Not all relinquishment scenarios involved the knowedge or consent of one or both birth parents. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/dfa858a4-61ca-4530-978f-c3f5cf53e872/Found-with-a-paperslip.jpg Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/6eb83362-ea9c-4b21-8ec4-99f443ac29b6/map.jpeg Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/83688379-5d06-4c6c-9fda-0162a69199d9/Dropdown.jpg Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/c238ac2d-b3a3-4e08-8a7a-032fac207df4/Calendar+0.jpeg Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/90eba3ad-bba4-477a-9403-be5a9ecfb482/KSS-Birth-Family-Search.jpg Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/405e835b-2d16-419f-9c20-31893c57314e/end-of-the-road.jpg Home - Make it stand out ALL Korean Adoption Agency files have moved to NCRC’s temporary storage facility — a cold storage warehouse located one hour north of NCRC’s main office in Seoul — starting July 19th, 2025. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/8fd95a2d-4de2-477f-b2d0-10ee2f1163c8/July+2025+4.jpeg Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/03526213-cf6b-4b92-8941-38f672dc621c/search.jpg Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/c7f5e02b-f590-431b-9d82-adfd55d75702/maze.jpg Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/48d57b71-4593-4cfd-80bb-2ae593df8eab/DNA.jpeg Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/f85fa6be-5657-4640-9156-3e81d4df88f6/ACSS_Redacted_Paperslip.jpg Home An example of a KSS “ENGLISH Adoptive Child Study Summary from the 1970s. This document was provided to the adoptive parents of the KSS Adoptee and is the primary means by which KSS “orphanized” the child. The style of the ENGLISH Adoptive Child Study Summary changed over the years, but the purpose of the document remained the same: to “orphanize” children who had likely NOT actually been abandoned and found with a “paper-slip” or “memo” in their “clothings” - but who were rather more likely “relinquished” by a birth family member to KSS in Seoul, or to a KSS “feeder orphanage”, or to a maternity clinic, single unwed mother’s home, hospital, or other source of children for KSS. This false “Orphanization” process meant that many KSS Adoptees grew up thinking that KSS had no birth family information about them - but in many cases, this was NOT true, and KSS kept a secret KOREAN Adoptive Child Study Summary, which sometimes, but not always, contained birth parent and sibling information. KSS still has many Adoptees’ files at its Post-Adoption Services building in Seoul, which is the last remaining building of its original campus. For Korea Social Service (KSS) Adoptees ONLY: Please note that if you have the name and birth date of your birth parent/s, you can go to the police in Korea and attempt to get their missing person’s unit to look up the person for you. While it is extremely helpful to have the person’s ID number (which KSS almost never provides to the Adoptee because they often did not record it) you do not have to have an ID number to do a search through Korean police. KSS will tell you that you need an ID number, but this is not true. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/6060f353-5b1d-4014-8397-4cd2a28f2b3d/FAKE-VS-REAL_English-vs-Korean-Adoptive-Child-Study-Summary.jpg Home While an individual KSS Adoptee’s KOREAN Adoptive Child Study Summary does not always contain birth parent information, it often contains more truthful information about where the Adoptee was born or found. *IMPORTANT NOTE: Everyone’s case is different. Not everyone’s English Adoptive Child Study Summary contains totally *FALSE information. Not everyone’s KOREAN Adoptive Child Study Summary contains totally *TRUE information. However, KSS wrote in the English Adoptive Child Study Summaries of thousands of KSS Adoptees that they were “abandoned” and that “both parents are unknown”. In VERY MANY cases, this was simply untrue, and KSS secretly kept the often more truthful KOREAN Adoptive Child Study Summary in its records and never told the adoptive parents of the KSS Adoptee, nor the KSS Adoptee about the existence of this document. *The above (redacted) documents of the exact SAME KSS Adoptee have been used by permission. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/00afdab1-972d-46e6-bdfa-32b171a972b2/PAPERSLIP-LIE-2.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/6c5f47bb-cb5c-4477-9e1a-a17264571797/Chosun-Ilbo_.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/8ba38544-734a-47a7-982a-4f95b750e209/KSS-Header_small.jpg Home The Korea Social Service, Inc.

Eventually this document would become the “Adoptive Child Study Summary” used by KSS in the 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, and presumably until 2012 when KSS closed its adoption business. It also appears that these 1960s KSS “English Facing” “Case Study Records” and “Child Study Summaries” had more truthful biographical information written on them than later 1970s “Adoptive Child Study Summaries” which appear to contain more false Orphanization language such as “found with a paper-slip” or “memo”. Such false Orphanization language could have presumably been used by KSS in any year, but so far such false Orphanization language seems to have predominated in the 1970s and into the 1980s. However it should be noted that false or incomplete information could have been used by KSS in any year. Apparently KSS evolved from: Case Study Record > Child Study Summary > Adoptive Child Study Summary. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/7cc40f34-bb2f-432a-9046-4bd7e2d8c685/Korean-Facing-Adoptive-Child-Study-Summary_Translation-Key_Page-1.jpg Orphanization Above: Translation key for Page 1 of the “Korean Facing” Adoptive Child Study Summary. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/2546f4fe-1abf-459f-b5ee-5cd647f97d26/Korean-Facing-Adoptive-Child-Study-Summary_Translation-Key_Page-2.jpg Orphanization Above: Translation key for Page 2 of the “Korean Facing” Adoptive Child Study Summary. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/0ebb0eba-72e4-4e94-89f2-74b52723a8fb/Korean-Facing-Adoptive-Child-Study-Summary_Translation-Key_Page-3.jpg Orphanization Above: Translation key for Page 3 of the “Korean Facing” Adoptive Child Study Summary. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/9713c986-7022-4d39-9115-12e53f17db2f/1980s-1990s_KSS-Korean-ACSS-Translation-Key.jpg Orphanization Here is the Translation Key for the KSS Mid - Late (?) 1980s / 1990s "Korean Facing" Adoptive Child Study Summary.

This baby or child photo accompanied the “English Facing” Adoptive Child Study Summary, and was sent by KSS to the US or European Adoption Agencies, and from there to a particular set of prospective adoptive parents, who would choose or decline to adopt the specific child in a process called “Matching”. A copy of each baby or child’s photo was kept in Korea at KSS, which is stored in a brown square paper envelope at the back of an Adoptee’s file at KSS’ Post Adoption Services building in Seoul. Please note: this is a blurred fake photo and is not a real KSS child. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/7e74c817-1ca7-4f9a-a58e-0cb96e170583/Korean-Facing-Adoptive-Child-Study-Summary_Page+1.jpg Orphanization https://www.paperslip.org/trigger-warning daily 0.75 2025-09-21 https://www.paperslip.org/how-to-use-ncrc-for-birth-family-search daily 0.75 2025-07-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/bf34ba7f-1e1d-4f1b-9add-bfbb36f09fc2/map.jpg How To Use NCRC For Birth Family Search - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.paperslip.org/i-dont-know-what-my-adoption-agency-was-what-do-i-do daily 0.75 2022-07-07 https://www.paperslip.org/misc daily 0.75 2022-02-21 https://www.paperslip.org/birth-family-search-tips-1 daily 0.75 2025-07-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/b725ba1b-9ed6-447d-a7b6-65a9fbe946ff/Poster_Erika-Blikman_NEW_small-5.jpg https://www.paperslip.org/known-maternity-birth-medical-clinics-hospitals daily 0.75 2026-02-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/144f89f2-41df-4d42-96d0-ee0e0afb24d8/Han+Hwa+Childrens+Medical+Clinic+2.jpeg Known Maternity / Birth / Medical Clinics + Hospitals - Make it stand out Above: Images of Han Hwa Children’s Medical Clinic, from a KSS photo album.

KOREA In the report for 1983, the problems arising from a significant decline in mediation figures during the year were described. At that time, there was fear that this situation could mark the beginning of a decline in adoptions from Korea. Mr. Kun Chil Paik, Korea Social Service, and F. Lund Nielsen, Adoption Center Negotiations with Korea Social Service provided assurance that adoption mediation could continue in 1984, albeit with fewer children than before. These agreements have been strictly adhered to. The office manager visited Korea in September for renewed negotiations, thereby ensuring that the mediation figures from 1984 could be maintained.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/78bd1380-3822-4a30-84c2-227c1a92286f/Kun-Chil-Paik_NL-1.jpg KSS Historical Figures In the only known video we have of him, KSS Founder Kun Chil Paik (mistakenly called Mr. Park) appears at the 18:04 mark in this Dutch video about Korean Adoption in the 1970s.

There is a documentary by SBS on Seongam Academy called 그것이 알고 싶다 (“I want to know about it”) on YouTube. Please note that this is extremely upsetting content. Important Update: Please note that we do not know the exact nature of what Seongam Academy was like in the 1940s when KSS Founder Kun Chil Paik (alternately: Baek Geun-chil / Paik, Kun Chil / 백근칠), was Vice President and later President of Seongam Academy. We have recently learned that Seongam Academy may have been at its most notorious in the 1970s, which is decades after KSS Founder Baek Gun Chil was in charge of Seongam Academy. At this time we do not have any documentation to support this claim. When that becomes available, we will include it here. Above are stills from the documentary, which show the (blurred) photo of KSS Founder Kun Chil Paik - Alternately: Baek Geun-chil / Paik, Kun Chil / 백근칠.

In the decade of the 1980s, 1988 was the peak year of Korean adoption. Adoption declined in Korea significantly after 1988 due to the international criticism which S. Korea received about being a “baby exporter”. For a general overview of Korean Adoption, see the article International adoption of South Korean children on Wikipedia here.

While an individual KSS Adoptee’s KOREAN Adoptive Child Study Summary does not always contain birth parent information, it often contains more truthful information about where the Adoptee was born or found. *IMPORTANT NOTE: Everyone’s case is different. Not everyone’s English Adoptive Child Study Summary contains totally *FALSE information. Not everyone’s KOREAN Adoptive Child Study Summary contains totally *TRUE information. However, KSS wrote in the English Adoptive Child Study Summaries of thousands of KSS Adoptees that they were “abandoned” and that they were found with a “paper-slip” or “memo” and that “both parents are unknown”. In VERY MANY cases, this was simply untrue, and KSS secretly kept the often more truthful KOREAN Adoptive Child Study Summary in its records and never told the adoptive parents of the KSS Adoptee, nor the KSS Adoptee about the existence of this document. However, now KSS will provide the KOREAN Adoptive Child Study Summary if the KSS Adoptee requests this document via the simple “Option D” Method described above. This process can be conducted via email. Please read this entire page for more information about this process. Please feel free to contact us with any questions. *The above (redacted) documents of the exact SAME KSS Adoptee have been used by permission. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/715ccdaf-ae59-463c-85aa-2a4edf2b7281/How-To-Start-A-BFS-0_small.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/ea72f265-2739-496a-9f20-920bd51c185f/How-To-Start-A-BFS_small.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/8c778404-78fd-487b-b7e4-5b8ecdd54ad3/Guide.jpg OUTDATED AFTER JUNE 15th, 2025: Step By Step KSS Birth Family Search https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/f655770e-1305-4534-b7cf-10cb66f07b6f/Petition-for-Adoption-Information-Disclosure%28Adult%29_Page_1.jpg OUTDATED AFTER JUNE 15th, 2025: Step By Step KSS Birth Family Search https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/d561cf64-fd9a-4aac-81c6-18591605778d/Option-D-Method.jpg OUTDATED AFTER JUNE 15th, 2025: Step By Step KSS Birth Family Search - Make it stand out See larger version of this graphic below the text section. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/a056b6d7-61ee-4142-8b3f-96d18538398c/Option-D-Method.jpg OUTDATED AFTER JUNE 15th, 2025: Step By Step KSS Birth Family Search https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/7ec23eef-f138-4e7c-a433-398aee3aba77/Adoption+Certificate_Redacted+for+Web.jpeg OUTDATED AFTER JUNE 15th, 2025: Step By Step KSS Birth Family Search Above: Example of a KSS Adoption Certificate.

(descendant of a Korean Adoptee) Bastiaan Seo Vin Flikweert, on February 17th, 2024. He had been assigned false credit for my research into KSS K-Numbers on January 1st, 2023 by Peter Møller of DKRG. It took over one year for Bastiaan to admit publicly — or even privately — that he had nothing to do with my original research, which I had unfortunately discussed with him in confidence during a Zoom in February 2022, before DKRG was formed in April or May of 2022. Bastiaan’s admission took place only after an enormous effort on my part to create a purpose-built website and call Bastiaan out publicly for refusing to admit he had no role in my research. DKRG has never acknowledged this egregious and deliberate false attribution of credit for my deeply personal research, and has never apologized. It was partly due to this treatment that I withdrew my TRC (Truth and Reconcilation Commission of Korea) case in March 2023 — despite my case being one of the first 34 accepted by the TRC. This deprived me of obtaining justice through the TRC for myself and for my deceased twin sister — whose case I was investigating by conducting this research into KSS K-Numbers, which was never meant to be made public. Subsequent to the statement above, Bastiaan Flikweert unfortunately chose to write an additional problematic statement, which we have responded to below. Please read our response to Bastiaan Flikweert’s subsequent problematic statement here. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/084749f0-6d00-4a1e-9a77-1d416a969a41/Dr-Shin-Email-re-KSS-K-Numbers.jpg KSS K-Numbers - Make it stand out My email to the person who had referred Bastiaan Flikweert to me in the first place, sent January 3rd, 2023 — 2 days after false credit was first assigned to Bastiaan Flikweert by Peter Moller for my original KSS K-Number research on January 1st, 2023 on a DKRG forum on which Peter Moller and Bastiaan Flikweert were both members, but from which I had been blocked. Unfortunately I never received a response to this email, which caused me further emotional harm. It wasn’t until MONTHS later, in Summer 2023 when I was in Korea for IKAA, that I was able to meet with this person, and after a long conversation, finally get him to agree that if he or Bastiaan Flikweert ever discussed KSS K-Number encoding, that they would credit Paperslip. It took a painful amount of effort and energy to come to this agreement. I wrote: ”Thanks once again for your help with the TRC! I'm not sure how much we discussed my K-Number research when I was in Korea, but something which has come up is that Peter Moller has recently given Bastiaan Flikweert credit on a DKRG forum for de-coding the KSS K-Number first digit codes. I messaged Bastiaan directly, who told me that there was "no evidence" that I had done the K-Number research. This is egregious considering that nearly the entire KSS Adoptee community online is well aware of my original K-Number research since 2020. There is extensive documentation of my research on the main KSS Adoptee forum, which I moderate. I moderate two different KSS Adoptee forums, the first with 823 members, and the second with 192 members. The majority of the members of both forums are well aware of the original K-Number research which I have been conducting on the main forum since 2020. The K-Number research came about directly because of my twin's switch case, and I ended up collecting and analyzing the K-Numbers of nearly 500 KSS Adoptees, which is how I figured out that KSS' K-Numbers were encoded. After I realized that I might have had a twin who died at KSS, I took one entire year to research the case - this was in 2020, before I came back to Korea in 2021 and found Mr. Park. A huge part of that year was researching KSS K-Numbers, with the help of another KSS Adoptee who can vouch for all of our research. Associated Press reporter Tong-Hyung Kim is well aware of my K-Number research, as I discussed it with him as part of my twin's switch case, with our conversation recorded in Korea on film in 2021 (it has not been aired or published anywhere). The KSS community and I have not wanted the fact that KSS K-Numbers were encoded public, but I decided to trust Bastiaan with this information after you introduced us early this year with good intentions. At the time, Bastiaan was not even aware of what KSS' Western Partner Adoption Agencies were. I shared with him the password to Paperslip, which was at that time a totally password protected site, only open to Adoptees. The K-Number research was a part of that site at the time. Bastiaan said that he would not share that the KSS K-Numbers were encoded, after I explained my research to him. I'm really disappointed in Bastiaan and will be even more so if Peter goes public with the information about KSS K-Numbers and publicly credits Bastiaan through the press. I would write to Peter directly, except for the fact that he has cut off all communication for no reason. Unfortunately, this has been his pattern with other Adoptees who have submitted their cases for the TRC. I just wanted to let you know, because I am sure that DKRG will want to take credit for my original research. I would definitely come forward publicly if this becomes the case. I'm sorry to bring this to your attention, but it disappoints me greatly that Bastiaan is not being honest and correcting Peter in crediting Bastiaan for decoding KSS' K-Numbers. Every KSS Adoptee online knows that I did this original research since 2020. We have not made it public, since not every KSS Adoptee knows their K-Number, and currently KSS will share the K-Number with Adoptees if they request it. I hope that you understand.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/28a81929-9e46-401c-a104-e79dc59c7fce/Twin.jpg KSS K-Numbers - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/e4bd9e44-d1c7-4676-87d9-52bd970e5a2a/ACSS.jpg KSS K-Numbers https://www.paperslip.org/korean-adoptee-starter-guide daily 0.75 2025-09-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/6eb83362-ea9c-4b21-8ec4-99f443ac29b6/map.jpeg Korean Adoptee Starter Guide - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/83688379-5d06-4c6c-9fda-0162a69199d9/Dropdown.jpg Korean Adoptee Starter Guide - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.paperslip.org/chatgpt-for-korean-text-translation daily 0.75 2026-02-16 https://www.paperslip.org/love-the-children-ltc-us daily 0.75 2025-07-30 https://www.paperslip.org/barriers-to-birth-family-search daily 0.75 2025-06-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/bfb7cce7-e5ef-44dd-898a-9899557000a5/NCRC-Dropdown-Menu.jpg Barriers To Birth Family Search - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.paperslip.org/a-korean-adoption-primer daily 0.75 2025-09-18 https://www.paperslip.org/kss-adoptee-faq daily 0.75 2025-09-18 https://www.paperslip.org/free-online-tools-tips-for-searchers daily 0.75 2025-09-08 https://www.paperslip.org/2024-/-2025-changes-to-ncrc daily 0.75 2024-02-02 https://www.paperslip.org/23-and-me-dna-test-facing-crisis daily 0.75 2024-02-02 https://www.paperslip.org/goal-has-a-new-secretary-general-2024 daily 0.75 2024-02-05 https://www.paperslip.org/new-advisory-sessions-free-for-kss-adoptees-paid-for-non-kss-adoptees daily 0.75 2026-03-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/7407c1ff-a02c-4e21-9790-c0b33cff66e8/Thank+You+Card+4.jpeg NEW!

Make it stand out A Few Adoptee Stages: You might be at one of these stages, or at a different stage in your Adoptee Journey. No matter what stage you are at, you should know: ALL Korean Adoption Files move from ALL 4 Major KOREAN Adoption Agencies to the Korean Government Agency NCRC (The National Center for the Rights of the Child) starting in July 2025! The centralization of adoption files is happening in order to comply with the Hague Convention, which S. Korea is in the process of ratifying. Ratification will happen in 2025. Birth family search AFTER JULY 2025 may be significantly delayed due to the massive transfer of adoption files. We simply DO NOT KNOW how long the delays may be, nor for how long they may last. + https://www.paperslip.org/new-interview-with-former-esws-ecws-social-worker-whistleblower daily 0.75 2024-08-26 https://www.paperslip.org/important-info-for-danish-korean-adoptees-regarding-birth-family-correspondence daily 0.75 2024-08-28 https://www.paperslip.org/between-goodbyes-new-film-about-dutch-kss-adoptee-world-premiere daily 0.75 2024-09-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/dd3b9751-c60d-4e8c-8f92-c4c54940e9ab/Screen+Shot+2024-09-06+at+12.31.59+PM.png BETWEEN GOODBYES: New Film About Dutch KSS Adoptee - WORLD PREMIERE! - Make it stand out DMZ docs runs from Sept 26 - Oct 2 where we will be one of ten films in the Korean film competition.

We appreciate your cooperation to ensure that post-adoption services could run smoothly over the past year. We do hope that God's blessings will overflow on everyone at your agency in the new year. With the new Adoption Act coming into effect as of July 19, 2025, there are many changes expected with adoption agencies, and we are sending this letter to make a few notifications in preparation for the transition of post-adoption services to the government. ESWS has been committed over the past 53 years to providing post-adoption services for adoptees, adoptive families, birth families and foster families, and we will continue to do so within our capacity until adoption work is transferred to the government. However, winding up all the adoption work in the process of the transition involves lots of follow-up tasks. Accordingly, we came to realize that in order to handle all the tasks while providing the same post-adoption services as in the previous, we will need more work force than expected and face enormous limitations and difficulties. Through much consideration and discussion, we have set the following guidelines with a heavy heart, and we would like to seek understanding from your agency and adoptees. In 2025, we will accept applications requesting for post-adoption services including birth search and visits by April but we regret that we have no choice but to limit the number since a large number of cases already received and processing must be completed prior to transferring the government. This decision was made considering the timeframes set for the longest period of time for birth search results to come out and time taken until its completion. Therefore, it is difficult this year to provide services for the tour groups that have visited every year. Additionally, we are no longer able to accommodate short notice or unscheduled visits, and please notify would-be visitors that they must make an appointment in advance. As of July 19, 2025, adoption files and all the international adoption work will be transferred to the government, and we will no longer have any adoption files with us and will not be able to provide the same post adoption services through documents as before. Even if that happens, however, we will always be happy to welcome adoptees and tour groups who wish to take a tour of ESWS. We would like to reiterate that we have made this difficult decision in order to complete the adoption process as best as we can and to provide better post adoption services for adoptees. If you have questions regarding this, please let us know any time. Thank you Sincerely, Lee, Hwa Sun Director, Adoption Services Dept.

Regarding the report "Is it reasonable for the state to remain indifferent while adopted children are dying?" #We clarify the facts. March 17, Yonhap News This article is based solely on the responses of the interviewees, reflecting the position of the Children's Rights Protection Agency. Mr. Mathieu, an adoptee, requested the disclosure of biological parents' information from the Children's Rights Protection Agency because he lacks this information and has not received an accurate diagnosis for a fatal condition that may have a genetic origin.” “The Children's Rights Protection Agency is currently proceeding with the adoption information disclosure process according to relevant laws. We have sent registered mail three times to one individual who may have information about Mr. Mathieu's biological parents to confirm their willingness to disclose the information, but we have not received a response. We are making multifaceted efforts to seek cooperation and assistance from biological families, including media outreach for family finding and genetic testing. The Children's Rights Protection Agency deeply empathizes with Mr. Mathieu's unfortunate situation and is exploring ways to provide practical assistance. Additionally, we will review improvement measures for the adoption information disclosure request system to ensure the right to know and support for Adoptees.” https://www.paperslip.org/plight-of-norwegian-korean-adoptee-with-rare-genetic-disease-highlights-systemic-issues-with-ncrc daily 0.75 2025-04-14 https://www.paperslip.org/ncrc-and-its-predecessors-are-notoriously-slow-to-update-their-websites daily 0.75 2025-03-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/99a391a3-bf38-4b3a-8ee0-1a86591a34b6/Screen+Shot+2025-03-20+at+12.48.13+PM.png NCRC And Its Predecessors Are Notoriously Slow To Update Their Websites - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/bd7f97cf-94b5-41ff-9ab9-baf6594fc6ec/Screen+Shot+2025-03-20+at+12.48.04+PM.png NCRC And Its Predecessors Are Notoriously Slow To Update Their Websites - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.paperslip.org/mbc-video-highlights-the-failures-of-ncrcnew-mbc-video-highlights-the-failures-of-ncrc-in-preserving-orphanage-records daily 0.75 2025-03-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/fc4d29bc-a241-4fca-ab00-c6d619d626cb/July-2025.jpg MBC Video Highlights The Failures of NCRC In Preserving Orphanage Records - Make it stand out Our AI image representation of the movement of ALL Korean Adoption files from ALL Korean Adoption Agencies to the Korean Government Agency NCRC (National Center for the Rights of the Child) starting in July 2025.

While teaching at Sungdeok Elementary School and married to his wife, Director Song Hye-sang, who had a unique passion for child education, he was introduced to social welfare work through the encouragement of his cousin, who was working at the Gyeongsangnam-do Police Agency. At that time, Busan was bustling with the repatriation of Japanese citizens and the return of Koreans who had been taken to Japan, leading to many cases of hunger and missing children. In response, Director Park went to the docks every evening to gather children separated from their families, providing them with warm shelter. He emphasized a "positive life" and treated the children "like his own," tirelessly working to address their needs. The couple nurtured all children equally and emphasized education, supporting underprivileged children to grow up properly. Director Park held joint meetings on the first Sunday of each month, allowing children and staff to communicate and plan activities together, instilling a sense of love and belonging by singing the association's anthem. The warm dedication of Directors Park and Song became a driving force for the children of Namkwang Academy to grow into healthy members of society. In recognition of their dedication to war orphans and impoverished children, Director Park received several awards, including a commendation from the Minister of Health and Welfare in February 1952, the Mayor of Busan in December of the same year and in March 1956, and the Order of Service Merit in 1985 and 1992. Sadly, he passed away in November due to an unexpected accident. Director Song received a presidential commendation in 1990 and the National Medal in 2004, and she passed away in June of that year. The noble sacrifice and love of Directors Park and Song, who dedicated their lives to social welfare, are deeply embedded in the operating philosophy of the Namkwang Social Welfare Association and continue to this day.

Starting with the Jeollyeong Comprehensive Social Welfare Center in 1994, it subsequently opened the Watchi Comprehensive Social Welfare Center in 1995 and the Namkwang Comprehensive Social Welfare Center in 1998. This marked a shift from child-centered welfare institutions to community-based comprehensive welfare programs. Additionally, the Jeollyeong Daycare Center opened in 1994, followed by the Dasom Daycare Center in 1995, providing customized childcare services for dual-income families and low-income infants, establishing itself as a quality childcare facility in the region. The Namkwang Social Welfare Association also focused on the growing number of elderly individuals as new welfare service users due to aging. It opened the Namkwang Senior Day Care Center in 1993, the Namkwang Home Service Dispatch Center in 1995, and the Namkwang Short-Term Care Center in 1996. Notably, it established the first Senior Day Care Center in Busan, playing a leading role in the development of home-based elderly welfare services through professional elderly welfare services. In this way, throughout the 1990s, the Namkwang Social Welfare Association actively diversified and expanded its welfare services, including vibrant child welfare initiatives such as the Namkwang Child Welfare Center, temporary protection center, and child counseling center, as well as the development of elderly welfare programs through day care, short-term care, and home service dispatch. It established and operated facilities to address the community's welfare needs in response to rapid changes in the social welfare environment, solidifying its role as a comprehensive social welfare institution.

By strengthening the functions and systems of each facility, the association aims to leap forward as a specialized social welfare corporation. Entering the 2000s, the association significantly expanded its area of welfare services by establishing specialized welfare facilities such as regional self-support centers, daytime care centers for people with disabilities, mental health rehabilitation facilities, and regional child centers. This progress allowed the organization to move one step closer to becoming a social welfare corporation that includes all local residents. In 2011, the association established its mission and vision, working to secure competitiveness as a social welfare corporation through proactive community contribution activities, effectively responding to various changes it faces. In 2013, the core values that form the foundation of Namgwang Social Welfare Association were proclaimed, and through the declaration of ethical management, the organization has been playing a leading role as a transparent entity that realizes professional social welfare values. Namgwang Social Welfare Association has established itself as an excellent social welfare organization in the region through systematic operation of child welfare facilities, social welfare centers, senior care institutions, home care for the elderly, regional self-support centers, daytime care centers for people with disabilities, rehabilitation facilities, and kindergartens. It is actively enhancing the quality of life for local residents by providing professional welfare services. Honorary Chairman Wang Sang-eun, who founded Hyopseong Shipping in 1952, served as the representative director of Namgwang Social Welfare Association from June 1962 until February 2000 and was appointed honorary chairman in 2014. He has not spared financial support for the smooth operation of welfare projects and continues to practice ongoing contributions.

"Gukshil" (meaning "national fruit" or "national treasure") signifies the bounty of the nation. In front of Gukshil Mountain flows the Suyeong Stream, and the spirit of Gukshil Mountain envelops the Namgwang Social Welfare Association. Established initially on the foundation of child welfare projects, Namgwang Social Welfare Association has since expanded into various social welfare services. Just as many children connected with Namgwang have grown to become the nation’s treasures, the association continues to strive to be a beacon of hope for a brighter world, from the past through the present and into the future. At the entrance of Namgwang Social Welfare Association stands a large rock shaped like a turtle, affectionately called "Turtle Rock." Many visitors find the rock fascinating. There is a story that has been passed down through generations about Turtle Rock. Long ago, in the lower village of Gukshil Mountain, there lived a young man with deep filial piety. He devoted himself to caring for his elderly mother, ensuring her health and longevity. His devotion became a model of filial duty for many. One day, however, his mother fell seriously ill. Desperate for her recovery, the young man prayed daily at Turtle Rock, asking for her swift healing. Moved by the young man's devotion, divine beings appeared and healed his ailing mother. Following this miraculous event, both the young man and his mother lived long, healthy, and happy lives. News of this miracle spread, and many people began to visit Turtle Rock to wish for health and longevity. People believed that "if you pray earnestly, your wishes will be heard by the heavens," and the story of Turtle Rock has been passed down to this day. Turtle Rock faces directly south, and at its southern end lies Sinseondae, where divine beings were said to have once lived in Yongdang, Busan. ※ Try spreading your arms and placing your palms on Turtle Rock while wishing for health and longevity!

We also pretty much hit the nail on the head by intentionally including just ONE social worker in our graphic, since NCRC’s birth family search division has long been understaffed — as it turns out, NCRC will have just THREE social workers handling the transfer of thousands of Korean Adoption Agency files at NCRC’s temporary storage facility in Gyeonggi-do. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/73a52044-635f-48f1-aa21-7f36f0cc817a/Run.jpg Paperslip Concludes A 15 Month Campaign To Warn KSS Adoptees About The File Transfer To NCRC - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/8fd95a2d-4de2-477f-b2d0-10ee2f1163c8/July+2025+4.jpeg Paperslip Concludes A 15 Month Campaign To Warn KSS Adoptees About The File Transfer To NCRC - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/fc4d29bc-a241-4fca-ab00-c6d619d626cb/July-2025.jpg Paperslip Concludes A 15 Month Campaign To Warn KSS Adoptees About The File Transfer To NCRC - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/add2ba66-2e4d-4624-be3d-5f7e7dae8ea8/Interstellar.jpg Paperslip Concludes A 15 Month Campaign To Warn KSS Adoptees About The File Transfer To NCRC - Make it stand out That’s right, we even tried to convey to Adoptees the importance of the July 19th, 2025 transfer of ALL Korean Adoption Agency files to NCRC by using the “Waves” scene from “Interstellar” as an analogy. ”Those aren’t mountains…those are waves.” ”RUN!” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/e7c18444-3a8f-476d-b9ea-c12feb38ed25/Titanic3.jpg Paperslip Concludes A 15 Month Campaign To Warn KSS Adoptees About The File Transfer To NCRC - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/a6037fb4-be4b-4add-85c2-1d35a837f432/Titanic.jpg Paperslip Concludes A 15 Month Campaign To Warn KSS Adoptees About The File Transfer To NCRC - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/598e1b8b-30fc-49b5-ac11-1ae4601b7b46/BFS-Request-Calendar-Deadline.jpg Paperslip Concludes A 15 Month Campaign To Warn KSS Adoptees About The File Transfer To NCRC - Make it stand out Note that at the time that we made this graphic in September 2024, we did not know for sure what KSS’ deadline would be for submitting requests for a birth family search and the formerly secret “Korean Adoptive Child Study Summary” (a document unique to KSS). So we feel reasonably proud of ourselves for accurately guessing what the timeline for submission would be. We had to estimate KSS’ response time to a KSS Adoptee’s request when guessing at the timeline of submission of requests. We could not know that KSS’ deadline would be June 15th, 2025 — and KSS NEVER let Adoptees know in advance that this would be their deadline. As we predicted we would have to do early on, we just had to figure out KSS’ deadline by word of mouth. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/0e511622-0aee-49c4-9b86-6ce0c03483f4/Calendar-Countdown-to-NCRC.jpg Paperslip Concludes A 15 Month Campaign To Warn KSS Adoptees About The File Transfer To NCRC - Make it stand out An admittedly ugly graphic, but hopefully it did the job in getting the word out.

The temporary storage facility selected by NCRC (which we were the first to report on back on May 2nd, 2025) is a glorified cold storage facility in Gyeonggi-do — inconveniently located one hour north of NCRC’s swanky new office building in Seoul. NCRC previously proposed an amazing “Adoption Records Center” to be purpose built in Gimpo — but according to an NCRC whistleblower who spoke at a Banet meeting on May 31st, 2025, NCRC has so far failed to request the LAND from Gimpo city government which is necessary to trigger the allocation of a BUDGET. Meanwhile, back in July 2024, the Ministry of Finance rejected the Ministry of Health and Welfare’s (MHW’s) request for the budget for the project. One hand shakes the other — you see? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/d47f5fce-3a93-45ab-8bf0-65cf3085836a/NCRC-Dropdown.jpg Why Adoptees Will Likely Be Stuck With NCRC’s Woeful Temporary Storage Facility For Adoption Files - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/6384f7b2-4f25-4f06-aeaf-b4f104b1adf6/SS-Adoption-Files.jpg Why Adoptees Will Likely Be Stuck With NCRC’s Woeful Temporary Storage Facility For Adoption Files - Make it stand out Above — Our eerily predictive graphic generated as part of our 15 month campaign to WARN Korean Adoptees about the transfer of ALL Korean Adoption Agency files to NCRC starting on July 19th, 2025. At the time we made this graphic, we were not yet aware that the temporary storage facility chosen by NCRC would be a cold storage facility in Gyeonggi-do, one hour north of NCRC’s main office in Seoul. We did however, always know that the file transfer to NCRC would be a disaster.

General Birth Family Search Steps Through NCRC — Overview - Make it stand out NCRC currently holds just a five-year lease on its temporary storage facility in Goyang, Gyeonggi-do — located an hour north of its main office in Seoul. This facility houses ALL adoption files from the former Korean Adoption Agencies. Since NCRC’s lease is set to expire in early 2030, we anticipate that the entire collection of adoption files will move a SECOND time — ideally to a permanent storage facility, though there are almost certain to be issues caused by the Korean Government’s unwillingness to properly fund such a project. We think you should try to make your requests to NCRC BEFORE this second movement of ALL adoption files — BY 2028 or EARLY 2029 at the latest! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/96ca592b-c3ac-45ed-9c7f-504e9ad67764/backup.jpg ALL Adoptees Start Here!

Photo of KSS’ former file room at KSS’ former Post Adoption Services building in Seoul. ALL KSS files were transferred to NCRC starting July 19th, 2025. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/848b527c-8111-4e9b-8bd5-769b983d88d0/KSS-Adoption-Files-in-Hallway.jpg Will NCRC Preserve KSS’ Death Books, Digital Microfiche Files, and Computers? - Make it stand out © Paperslip.org — (Date unknown). Photo of KSS files out in the hallway of its former Post Adoption Services building. Apparently the files were in the hallway, outside of their usual filing cabinets, in advance of a major Korean Adoptee conference in Seoul. ALL KSS files were transferred to NCRC starting July 19th, 2025. *Please note that the “76-” numbers you see on the folders refers to the year that the KSS Adoptee LEFT KOREA — NOT the year the Adoptee was born (though these years in some cases may have been the same). So 76 = 1976 — the year that these Adoptees LEFT KOREA for adoption to the US, Netherlands, Denmark, or Switzerland (the only countries to which KSS adopted, between 1964-2012). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/65003af5-fb62-4308-b7b1-73adb023087f/KSS-death-book.jpg Will NCRC Preserve KSS’ Death Books, Digital Microfiche Files, and Computers? - Make it stand out Above: An AI generated image of a KSS “death book”. Please note that this image does not look exactly like what we saw, and unfortunately we do not have a photo of the actual KSS death book. The notebook we saw was not a binder but just a standard writing notebook with maybe a black paper cover — like something you would buy from a drugstore for homework. The photos of children were in a column to the right and their death dates were to the left. We are not sure of the exact positioning of the death dates, but the fact that these were death books has been confirmed twice by a translator who was present at the time when we were shown a death book by the senior KSS social worker. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/42cf7770-8fac-45ae-8cea-ec9ee4439bf7/KSS-Microfiche.jpg Will NCRC Preserve KSS’ Death Books, Digital Microfiche Files, and Computers? - Make it stand out Above: An AI generated image of a KSS digital microfiche file on its computers. Please note that this image does not look exactly like what we saw, and unfortunately we do not have a photo of the actual KSS digital microfiche files we saw. However, this gives a good general idea of what we saw at KSS’ former Post Adoption Services building, in the office where the social workers worked. https://www.paperslip.org/kss-website-partial-backup daily 0.75 2025-07-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/01cddb4e-4d16-48ec-b1fb-476558e7d288/1.png KSS Website Partial Backup -

The only Adoptee representative is the current SG of G.O.A.'L. https://www.paperslip.org/ncrc-notice-on-allowed-file-types-and-upload-size-restrictions-for-the-kas-website daily 0.75 2025-09-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/6f385e96-302b-435f-a6ef-9ca03e269fd6/File+Types.jpg NCRC Notice on Allowed File Types and Upload Size Restrictions (For The KAS Website) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.paperslip.org/ncrc-notice-on-allowed-file-types-and-upload-size-restrictions-for-the-kas-website-link daily 0.75 2025-09-19 https://www.paperslip.org/a-note-for-kss-adoptees-preparing-to-submit-requests-to-ncrc-via-the-kas-website daily 0.75 2025-09-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/7b16940a-4979-4fc4-b40c-b6c72e164038/Worried.jpeg A Note For KSS Adoptees Preparing To Submit Requests To NCRC via the KAS Website - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.paperslip.org/how-to-obtain-your-13-digit-korean-id-number daily 0.75 2025-10-03 https://www.paperslip.org/ncrc-kas-website-links daily 0.75 2025-09-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/83688379-5d06-4c6c-9fda-0162a69199d9/Dropdown.jpg NCRC / KAS Website Links - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/95a0c765-1511-402b-bc38-d6687bf8c33c/KAS.jpg NCRC / KAS Website Links - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.paperslip.org/woman-abandoned-as-baby-gave-up-on-finding-birth-family-until-she-got-text daily 0.75 2025-09-21 https://www.paperslip.org/gaips-kcare-kas-ncrc-different-name-same-story daily 0.75 2025-09-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/510aa885-c643-4112-8e23-aa2ba42374d9/Merry+Go+Round+1.jpeg GAIPS > KCARE > KAS > NCRC: Different Name, Same Story - Make it stand out Above — Round and round we go…it kind of makes us sick. https://www.paperslip.org/44-health-and-welfare-agencies-face-parliamentary-auditchuseok-holiday-offers-no-respite daily 0.75 2025-09-24 https://www.paperslip.org/clarification-ncrc-is-a-s-korean-public-institution daily 0.75 2025-09-24 https://www.paperslip.org/state-online-services-networks-crippled-after-data-center-fire daily 0.75 2026-03-11 https://www.paperslip.org/september-30-2025-it-is-still-currently-possible-to-submit-requests-through-the-ncrc-kas-website daily 0.75 2025-10-03 https://www.paperslip.org/g-drive-data-lost-in-s-korean-data-center-fireall-central-government-work-files-gone daily 0.75 2025-10-01 https://www.paperslip.org/mom-i-dont-blame-you-please-meet-metearful-plea-from-adoptee-battling-cancer daily 0.75 2025-10-02 https://www.paperslip.org/president-lee-i-apologize-to-adoptees-who-suffered daily 0.75 2025-10-03 https://www.paperslip.org/letter-to-s-korean-president-lee-in-the-wake-of-his-apology-to-adoptees daily 0.75 2025-10-06 https://www.paperslip.org/adoptee-responses-to-s-korean-president-lee-jae-myung-in-the-wake-of-his-apology daily 0.75 2025-10-03 https://www.paperslip.org/intercountry-adoption-the-significance-of-the-trcs-decision-and-future-tasks daily 0.75 2025-10-06 https://www.paperslip.org/intercountry-adoption-the-significance-of-the-trcs-decision-and-future-tasks-1 daily 0.75 2025-10-05 https://www.paperslip.org/note-to-travelers-you-cant-take-poppyseeds-to-korea daily 0.75 2025-10-06 https://www.paperslip.org/after-30-years-korea-joins-international-adoption-convention daily 0.75 2025-10-07 https://www.paperslip.org/breaking-s-korean-president-sets-fb-relationship-status-with-adoptees-to-its-complicated daily 0.75 2025-10-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ecb3c95cb9d558677ab28c/82d05e02-012a-4e41-9a6c-1e21fa830e8d/The-Onion.jpg Breaking: S.

We coined these terms in 2021. *Please note that Sophie should have included the (Paperslip) attribution following the statement, “Very often, information regarding the child’s background was included on the Korean Summary and not the English Summary.” While filmmaker Deann Borshay Liem made the excellent film “In The Matter of Cha Jung Hee”, Deann is not a KSS Adoptee (she was an ISS / International Social Services Adoptee), and thus does not have a document titled “Korean Adoptive Child Study Summary” or “English Adoptive Child Study Summary” — these are documents unique to KSS Adoptees only. *Please note that the author Sophie Colletta Nix has kindly acknowledged via email that our corrected attribution should be amended in her thesis. Please see: How Two US KSS Adoptees Figured Out How To Obtain KSS’ Formerly Secret ”Korean Adoptive Child Study Summary” In July 2021.
