• W2253083687 abstract "A coalition of parties affected by international adoption has banded together to revise South Korea’s Special Law on Adoption Promotion and Procedure with a bill sponsored by National Assembly member Choi Young-hee(DP). The coalition consists of the overseas adoptee organizations Truth and Reconciliation for the Adoption Community of Korea(TRACK) and Adoptee Solidarity Korea(ASK), the civic organization KoRoot(House of Korean Root), Korean Unwed Mothers and Family Association(KUMFA, also known as Miss Mamma Mia), Dandelions group for parents who lost children to adoption, and the Gonggam Public Interest Lawyers. This article starts by giving a brief history of the people and organizations involved in fostering an environment in Seoul where it became possible for adoptees to live and work full-time, and that led to a opening a space where some adoptees chose to do activist work, including the proposal of changes to the Special Law on the Procedure and Promotion of Adoption when most are not even recognized as Korean citizens. I also give a short history of the relationships that have been built over time between the internationally adopted Koreans and people in the Korean society, including child-rearing single mothers and parents who lost children to adoption. An average of 89.17 of the children legally adopted from 2000-2009 were the children of unwed single mothers, whereas all of the secret adoptions within Korea, which are conducted outside the law, are presumed to involve the children of these mothers. The next part of the article is a history of how TRACK came to spearhead the adoption law revisions, beginning with a request to the ombudsman of Korea, which was later folded into the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission under the Lee Myung-bak administration. This frustrated attempt to investigate corrupted adoptions led to our cooperation with the Gonggam Public Interest Lawyers, who persuaded us to try to reform the adoption law. The next part of the article is a look at the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child and The Hague Convention of 29 May 1993 on Protection of Children and Co-operation in Respect of Intercountry Adoption with an eye toward bringing South Korea up to international standards for child protection. South Korea has not yet ratified the Hague convention and considers itself not bound by sub-paragraph(b)(v) of paragraph 2 of Article 40: and paragraph(a) of Article 21 of the UN CRC. I recommend that the South Korean government should include the opinions of adoptees, single parents, and parents and families who lost children to adoption in processes that will determine how the language of the convention is interpreted and enforced at a practical level within Korea. The last part of the article concerns the coalition’s recommendations for law reform." @default.
