The Cruel History of International Adoption

“Madam! Why did you put me up for adoption? And to a pedophile at that? Why did you steal me from my Korean parents? They never abandoned me. They never knew I was adopted. They couldn’t see their kids for almost 40 years. Why did you do that? Answer me! Don’t avoid me anymore. Madame!” – YooRee Kim, Adopted from South Korea to France in 1984
