Hello everyone! Thank you for supporting Babybox Korea. Our team was moved to tears watching this video. From Grandma Yoo to the abandoned infants in Korea, the Asian Boss team and community has been amazing for kickstarting social movements that matter. As always, please send us any questions you may have~ 💕
I remember the last video of this it used to be 11 babys a month, and the box looks prettier
Asian Boss can you do a video about the re-education camps of Xinjiang, it’s a very big contemporary issue, where millions of uyghurs are being sent to re-education camps and internment camps?
Asian Boss, can you do a video about what South Koreans think of the mass rape of Vietnamese Women by South Korean Soldiers and the children who were the result of the mass rape of Vietnamese Women by South Korean Soldiers known as Lai Dai Han, and whether the South Korean Goverment should apologise and pay compensation, and do more do bring more awareness to the mass rape of Vietnamese Women by South Korean Soldiers which resulted in so many Children being born known as Lai Dai Han in the South Korean history textbooks.
@@bensontan9301 wah.. thats new. I never heard about that. It will be interesting knowing that Korea still demanding apologize from Japan for using Korean woman as comfort woman.
I loved how even in the worst case scenario, they're still so positive. Want to give up your kid? Let's see how we can help. Still want to give up your kid? Thank you for not abandoning your kid somewhere unsafe. Absolute zero shaming as long as the baby is safe.
i also really love that
EXACTLY i love that! because the most important thing in that situation is the health of both the mom and the baby
I cry when when she say this..
After that thank you, when she said she doesn't want the moms to be remorseful after leaving their baby behind, I absolutely swooned. So pure.
Neko Paste beautifully put
That’s just really sad that Korean society shames single mothers. My moms a single mom and she’s resilient and hard working. Without her in my life I would be nothing.
Edit: by far my most highest rated comment on TH-cam thanks y'all ^^
@@cxze12 WTH is wrong with you? Go shut the hell up! Go through what an single mother went through then come back and speak. Don't you have empathy? Imagine how you'd hurt Abby's feelings. Honestly, I'm surprised there are still people like you in our humanity. Smh. Abby your mom is a very strong woman and you should be proud for having her in your life.❤️
My mom told me she wouldn't want her baby If she has health issues
Having children that you can't take care of should be shameful. But there are degrees of shame. In America there is not enough shame, in Korea there is too much.
@@hdaviator9181 you don't know how they came to be single mothers. Stfu. Shaming someone for having a child is disgusting. Keep in mind that not every woman has access to abortion.
pink girl You never know what people go through. The mother could’ve gotten out of an abusive relationship with the father and is afraid to date again. There are many reasons why the parent ended up single, so please do not be rude
It still baffles me how societies can lift up and covet celebrities meanwhile real life heroes like this man exist.....
DemonicRuins Well said 💖
Exactly. And it’s not just any celebrities. It’s anyone who is attractive. Being attractive gets more attention than good work.
Simply. We as a society are stupid.
we have a corrupt media based on the dollar
For those of you in the US, there is something similar in Atlanta GA also called The Hope Box based off of this man’s ministry. Their goals are the same and they are trying to raise the resources to expand to other places too. My heart cries out for these babies and their parents. I hope my husband and I can adopt someday.
“Though my father and mother forsake me, the Lord will receive me.”
Psalms 27:10
Written on the box
I love that Scripture. A great depiction of His love.♥️
Amen💕
🙌🏼✝️💔
Beautiful❤
Amen!
my favourite thing about this is that they don't just take the baby and put it up for adoption but invites the mothers in and offers them a place to recover, counselling and care packages to help support the mother and child
Yes ❤️
Yes ❤❤
if america adopted this instead of abortion clinics, we would prob have a much more unified society
This is similar to Po Leung Kuk in Hong Kong. I lived in that orphanage for 4 years then got adopted.
@@cafe88racer53 a lot healthier children and adults in the inner cities especially
Pastor Lee’s son passed away in August of this year. His son was the inspiration behind the forming of his church and The Baby Box... Has anyone from Asian Boss reach out to him?
:((
Thats so very sad :( I hope the baby box will still hold up for this man has done such an amazing job for those mothers and babies that needed help. May he rest in peace.
May his son rest in peace 🙏❤
What happened to his son?
@@ronweasleyisme he died, that's what the first post said
5:00 the box says “Jesus loves you” and that is unbelievablely beautiful
it really is🥺
😭💓
AMEN
😭😭😭😭😭❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Amen
I wish more religious leaders approached their calling this way
It depends on the calling tho, tbh
exactly.
If they don't, they're no religious leader in my book.
He had a disabled son
while the secularists and atheiest simply call for the extermination of the baby. souless devils they are.@@tulayamalavenapi4028
This man made *babybox* for abandoned babies
And God made *Heaven* for this kind of human being
This comment made me smile ❤
I cried for this comment😭😭😭😭😭 cried with unexplainable happy feeling
Even a Buddhist agrees with you
Wow nice 👏
This comment brought me to tears because it’s so freaking true.
wow, not only are they saving babies, but they also give counseling to the moms. these are the kind of people we should be supporting. thank you for your service pastor lee!
Yes he’s really empower women!
I just did....Hope other people do too
Not only counseling, free diapers and baby needs too! 😯
Inspirational, serving
some of the most vulnerable in society.
Thank you Pastor Lee
& Thank you AB for the story 👼🌿♥️🌻💫
Thank you for your service pastor Lee and all the women working hard in there to help too.

Oh my God. I'm from Atlanta, to think such an amazing organization is so close to home! I pray I will be able to adopt one day, may God bless you and your husband with a happy child!
Really? And the babies aren't handled by the CPS and put with foster families? I'd like to know more abt the hope box
Are those boxes really that rare? We have about 100 "Babyklappen" in Germany, Switzerland and Austria have some as well and there is the possibility of "confidential birth", which means your personal data will be kept secret, the child will be legally registered and kept at the hospital, a foster family will take care of them.
But the police station and hospitals does that too. Right. They inform to anybody can't handle the baby, drop on any hospital, police station without question. But some mother have mental problem, desperation and will drop the baby in dumpsters and don't even know about the hospital, police station, even if they know, if the mother is mental or drugged up, will not think straight.
supermelodia If you read testimony of some mothers who have wanted to leave their babies at hospitals, police, etc, most places have laws that force those mothers to sign away their babies in person. For those mothers who are in human trafficking especially, that isn’t an option. Even though they are being abused, current legislation does not protect victims of human trafficking and would instead arrest them. This gives mothers in similar situations an option where they don’t have to fear arrest.
I’ve never even had a child but the counselor lady’s kind words that she says to the mothers made me cry. We all need people to treat us so kindly - it’s beautiful
Pastor Lee definitely deserves a Nobel Prize of Peace. Also, this world *NEEDS* people like him.
Edit: Oh..my..god, it’s been a year since I posted this and look how many likes I got. Tysm!!!! I’ve been looking at the comments for a while and I’m seeing alot of _“We need to become like him”_ replies. Let me be clear that I wrote this without the intention of ‘waiting’, but that’s fine if you understand it that way. To reply all those “become like him” comments all at once, I totally agree, there’s no time to wait for someone to do this. The will to do something like this has to come from ourselves and we have to do it now. The world is currently in a critical state and its up to each one of us to save it. Sure, we might encounter with people that disagrees with our goals and will try to let us down, but instead, let’s all be strong, lets all be there for each other, let’s alI move forward and stand for what’s right!! If Pastor Lee can do it, *WE* can do it.
To conclude this edited message, please keep liking this message, I can feel that my opinion is getting more recognizable with every like you guys gave me and I sincerely appreciate it. ☺️Anyways, let’s all wish Pastor Lee the best of the best and may God keep blessing his wonderful soul.
Whatever good thing you’re up to in the future, *I 100% SUPPORT YOU!!* ❤️❤️❤️❤️
He will receive his rewards in heaven. God bless him and his family
Tee Loving and Living Life *PERIOD*
Definitely long overdue 👍🙏🙌😇
Right on but they give to perverted pastors in catholic churches instead.
more than you know
I was an abandoned infant 11 weeks old put outside Ho Chi Minh city. Vietnam. I was adopted by a Chinese Cambodian Vietnamese destitute widow there. She passed January this year. I miss you to death Mama.... I love these babies I want them.all to.have great peace.... - Vi An

"Korean society is a saving-face and shaming culture"
This is the truest statement I've ever heard about South Korea.
Hm. America really isnt that mich different from South Korea and many other places 🤔
@@livelystone9367 I know what you mean but honor and respect are the fundamentals principles of Asian culture if you dishonor your family's name they won't speak to you ever again, they can even ban you because of the shame they feel. It's about saving-face/name of the family no matter what.
Most of asia like that man,
@@zackyzack7647 Laugh in Bible belt
Its Asia culture
"I've wept so much for these babies"
I thank god for people like him.
Hello friend make sure you take good care of them don't come unless anybody them are the leader of tomorrow. Nice to meet you is me Keanu reeves where are you from i really love your comments❤🙋🙋
I’ve seen some people in the comments invalidating this man’s and his team’s hard work just because they are Christians. I’m an atheist myself but these people are doing so much for this children and their mothers in a society where being a single mother is practically impossible especially because of prejudice. At the end of the day who cares about who’s giving assistance? This is still a good cause and I would love to know if it is possible to join the team even for a short amount of time as a volunteer
Some people really don't understand that they need to point the finger at themselves, because THEY are the ones with hate in their hearts, not Pastor Lee.
It's not about the religion. Shitty people use religion to validate their shitty behaviors. Good people like this may use religion as a leverage but it's usually because they were good to begin with. This pastor may see children as god's gifts but that doesn't take away from the fact that he's saving human lives.
Thank you for your very nice words.
christians give more to people than any group of people. Its crazy people hate chrisitans but they love what christians provide them
I'm an atheist too and find nothing off about someone doing good to others. This man and those working with him to assist many at the end of their ropes and provide care to the abandoned tots is a hero in my books.
Give this man a Nobel Peace Prize. He actually deserves it.
I second that
Yes
i stan by that
The Handicrapped Stain Suu Kyi deserves to keep her prize get your recent politics out of her real contributions to Burmese society uplifting her people (not the Rohingya who are not Burmese) out of poverty, uphelding democratic values for decades in house arrest and gaining power finally to bring balance against the military junta
Obama took it from him by dropping bombs in middle East.
It is shame on families who force their daughters to abandon their babies, it is shame on families to reject single mothers.
Gotta stop with the shame...that was the problem in the first place. "Darkness cannot drive out darkness. Only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate. Only love can do that." Martin Luther King Jr.
THIS is what following God means…helping the most vulnerable without judgement…caring for the weak and showering them with love. God bless this man. He is so so amazing ❤️
The pastor aged well. I remember watching him years ago, the children, their meal preparation etc. He's also taking care of his bed ridden son. I think he's one of the reasons why he established Baby Box. Long live pastor!
Update: the son died
Tamis AJ seriously??
@@rora2493 Yes.
I remembered this too
"I will keep working tirelessly until God calls me." Eye opening statement. God's work is not done, we must continue to serve Him until our last breath.
Amen and praise be to God, we must never stop doing his work.
Amen
Amen
Amen. The video pulled me back to the cross...
Amen
All Glory and Praise be to Him, He continues to give His Presence and Power in this our world.
Update! There will be an upcoming film based on this story called “Baby Box Broker” directed by Hirokazu Koreeda. This will be the director’s first Korean film. The confirmed cast are actress Lee Ji-eun, Song Kang Ho, Kang Dong Won, and Bae Doona. Filming is expected to start in April!
Upcoming film inspired by this story?
@@lightwaffle9016 Yes it's about the baby boxes
I thought they already have a movie of this it's called drop box..
Saw the trailer released early June.
Its out now! welp kinda bit while ago but personally imma watch it very very soon, also if u know IU, she's also starring in it.
Edit: the title is "Broker"
"So, I must keep working tirelessly until God calls me" this lines warmth my heart
Huge respect for the Pastor and his team 💓
The pastor himself has a son who is very disabled and I believe autistic. So he chooses to help other children with the same condition. There is a more in depth video but it is a documentary. I recommend you guys seeing it. I believe it's called "The Drop Box". Edit: wow this got a lot of likes. If you can please follow my Instagram tommybridge1 k thx bye
Yeah, I remember seeing it a year or two ago. Knowing that he saw the consequences first hand really shows in how he treats all the kids.
Yes, i have seen that documentary too.
But this sub said pastor. Pastor should not married, ever. Is this actually wrong sub, should be a reverend?
@@DottieDott pastors can marry and have children, unless he is a catholic priest. They're the ones who don't marry.
@@jeahhunter7508 i thought pastor is a catholic rome and reverend is christian protestant?
To have such an honest and pure person do this in a culture such as South Korea where single mothers and babies with disabilities and young mothers are still frowned upon and not helped by the government or their own family is so beautiful to see. Thank you so much for making this video!
Ewww kpoop

Yeah I'm not relgious myself either but it's people like him who give make me sincerely revere (deeply respect) christians
This man is my hero. I can't even imagine the blessings in store for him when the Lord Jesus takes him home to heaven to be with Him. This is what Christ calls us to do.
💟
Amen
Yes Amen halleluyah
"So, I must keep working tirelessly until God calls me" He has a heart of gold. Huge respect. People like him are real heros and role models for our society.
I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race and I have kept the faith.

@@heyhihello4321 It's funny how nuts like you believe that nothing created everything 😂😂😂
@@heyhihello4321 if you hate God please dont comment it because it will get you hate comments
No, this man and the Babybox community in general didn't just save the babies, they saved the mothers.
What about the father's?
Pia Mari Medalla true
Then let the babies died? What ur solution for that poor babies?
They're saving the both. Thanks for inspiring me to do the best in my life!
I love his idea for the future village where the mothers can raise their children!
It would be great if society was not so hostile and shameful towards unwed mothers. :'( But if we can't have that, it would be nice for them to have a safe community!
💟
@@bluesira
Yes, and sadly India is still killing female babies in the womb, or leaving them abandoned in the trash.
😭💔
He's giving them what the Korean government won't; a safe NON judgemental choice and compassion.
i was born to a single mother in korea and was put into an orphanage. god bless pastor lee for the work he does and the workers there.
Is anyone else crying or is it just me? 😭
Someone needs to give Pastor Lee an award, he deserves one!
Edit: omg since when did I get 1k likes 😨 Thank you guys so much!!
(oof, I re-watched this and I cried again 😭😂)
PastelPanda__ 10 oh I’m balling my eyes!!
@Komerican10 me too 😭
He truly does 😭😭😭💜
People like Pastor Lee and the late Edhi unfortunately rarely get the recognition or reward that they deserve.
@Sam Hart yeah which is really a shame 😕
I'm 17 years old. When someone asks me "what do u want to be when u grow up?" my answer is that 'I want to be a good mom'. It doesn't matter if I have my own children or not. I just want to mother kids and I can't wait to grow older so I can start earning and do what I like.
That's beautiful. You will be an amazing mother and it's more powerful than a lot of people think.
My sister and I were raised by a single mom. She maintained a career in chemistry until Lupus would not allow her to work. She then worked from home when she could while taking care of us and sending us to college. Single mothers who handle their business are to be celebrated, not shamed.
This man is a perfect representation of Christ. Blessings be unto him and his flock.
"I want to build a village." Dayum. I hope that becomes truth in just few years time. God Bless
Amen.
If KD says it's Harry Pote, then it's Harry Pote yes
I tears just fall at the end of the video. ..Glory to Jesus
To preserve life is our mission
he will build a Village then a City then a Nation
@ 5:10 , when Pastor Lee said he wept so much for those babies, you can tell from his face that he wept for several lifetimes. I hope people will support his cause both financially and by volunteering.
If you can't afford to raise a child then get an abortion. I do not want my tax dollars going to fund orphanages/foster care and welfare programs to support children born to irresponsible mothers.
I'm from USA where foster care/orphanages and welfare programs for low income mothers are funded by tax payer money.
@@johnd6099 "Irresponsible mothers"??? You know it takes two to make a baby right?
Christians please tithe to babybox. You do not live this life for you alone. This life is not abt how much love you can get but abt how much love you give. Since you have hands and legs, go get a job, be very frugal and tithe to babybox.
John D trash for even saying such a horrible thing. Stop shaming women for something that takes TWO people to do. Disgusting
@@johnd6099 That's a terrible thing to say. Women aren't the only one responsible for creating a child. A man is equally responsible too. Where are these abandoned babies fathers? Are they not at fault? Will the responsibility of raising the child fall solely on the mother's shoulders???
And if they were raped? Abandoned by the father? Is it still their fault if they cannot raise the baby on their own? Also, abortion is not available in every country and some mothers just don't want to do that or don't have the heart to do that.
Thank you, Jesus, for walking with this man.
That pastor is a true lifesaver, not all heroes wear capes
None does
@@influenzaz1012 😂
They certainly wear underwear. Maybe not.
Spiderman doesn’t wear a cape. Same with black panther and many more.
@@greenlight0549 it's a figure of speech. Don't take it literally
12:15 what a beautiful aspiration! A village with gardens where single mothers are supported while they raise their children and live independent lives... Thank you for sharing Asian Boss!

@@johnd6099 + many children are born because young girls are deceived by irresponsible men, or are abused, or raped. All the shaming is focused on the women though. Anyways this is taking place in Korea, not USA, so don't worry for "your tax dollars"!
John D abortion is murder you prick
John D hopefully that never happens to anyone in your family. Cause you’d probably force them to abort it, since it’s only a waste of your tax money
@@johnd6099 lmao there are many more things that get funded with tax payer money that are significantly less important than foster care programs. You make it sound like a big chunk of money gets put into those type of programs. Also calling these mothers irresponsible is kinda rude considering that not every woman has access to abortion because the world is shitty for the sake of being shitty.
I’m just grateful that my birth mom went though all the toils of a pregnancy and labor, that she carried me to term and had me. I don’t think these boxes were around when I was born, but she took me to a child welfare place and gave me a chance at a better life. I was able to be adopted when I was only three months old by the best family. I’m 35 now and am so grateful for this life I have. I even found my sister on 23andMe which was so coincidental and lucky! It’s been so fun getting to know her, especially since I grew up an only child. So, thanks to all these people who do everything they do for all these babies and for giving them a chance at life.
The country needs to work on how they treat single young mothers; they should listen to this man.
What a nice guy he is truly a hero, I just wish people wouldn't throw their babies out like that it isn't right, good thing that man saved them.
The true cause of all of this is promoting sex outside of marriage as normal....itsm should be illegal and you won't have this
@ut bo if you weren't paying attention, cases were rape or incest were also causes of this, it is not the policing of consenting sex that will stop this, if South Korea developed a culture of less shaming these children would not be so quickly abandoned to save face
@@POProckxplosun
The pros and cons of having sex after against before marriages are way better and you can't deny that.
@@curiousgeorge6921 true, I'm from a conservative society and even though most young people have sex before marriage here too I still stand firmly against it. Way too many social problems arise from this sort of culture. I mean how hard it is to wait until after marriage?
@@yellowbeez93 it depends on what the individual values. Sex is a form of bonding and communication. Not to mention some people want to have biological children without getting married
I can't even imagine how hard it will be for an old man to take care of the babies when he first started .
Its Nicky there are many people there helping him, not just himself.
@@EmilyPetersenHomemaking "when he first started"
It means when he first started out and without all the necessary support that he has until now
Lolerskaters I think he had his wife at least. He is married and has a family, and if I remember right from the documentary, the local church body was helping him as well. But you’re right, it takes a real leader and hero to take a step of faith like that and start something so hard.
@@EmilyPetersenHomemaking it would still be hard nevertheless. Raising one baby is hard enough
Psalm 27:10 A Memoir: When my father and mother forsake me, then the Lord will take me up.
Let's give props to the moms who have the humanity to place the babiee in a baby box, instead of the trashcan
We need a babybox in all the "face saving and shaming" countries. Basically most asian countries.
I mean its good that the "babybox" exist but it does not mean that we can abuse it. We should also be responsible of our own act too.
So? You prefer being sexually active or tearing your baby life apart when she was just born? What i really mean is that these babybox is a good opportunity to saves babies lives but we also should be responsible on what we do,everything that we do have an impact on our future
Ankita Sahani or a better idea is to not shame these mothers and make them feel useless for their situation in their pregnancy it makes me sad knowing that they feel the need to do this just over the fear of bringing shame in their family. Babies are a gift from god no matter how they where brought into this life people should feel happy and not felt like they where a mistake
@@Raven-wh2pl Totally agree with you!
@@ChristinaQueenHeart Then you should be enough strong even though you didn't ask for it you should make a big step to not ruin your baby life because after all it is your baby
There will be a special place in heaven for this soul when thy kingdom come.
Preach, he doesn't want them adopted either, he wants the family unit to stay intact. I pray God blesses him for doing what most of the country won't.
Such a pure soul he is. I wish i can be half of who he is as a human being
His rewards will be many, that's for sure ❤️
I watched his documentary "The Drop Box". It shows what Asian Boss DOESN'T. Pastor Lee's wife is just as much of a Saint as him. She's been there supporting him all these many years. Once upon a time, Pastor Lee was an alcoholic and a violent man. Then he heard a divine voice so to speak that changed his life. The director of this documentary, a Non-Christian young white man Brian Ivie became a disciple of this pastor and a Christian. Meeting Pastor Lee through this documentary changed his life for the better overcoming porn addiction. I recommend watching the documentary as I don't want to give too much away.
Amen
This honestly made me cry. It's so unfortunate how some mom's just don't have the support system that they need. I was extremely lucky to have such kind Asian parents that didn't turn their back on me when I got pregnant. Now my partner and I are looking to extend our love in adopting to a child that deserves a fair chance in life.

Hello friend make sure you take good care of them don't come unless anybody them are the leader of tomorrow. Nice to meet you is me Keanu reeves where are you from i really love your comments❤🙋🙋
I remember him visiting my house for lunch, he was one of the most humble and wisest man I have ever met. It was a huge honor for him and his wife to attend my church in Everett, WA and also taking his time to visit me and my family. I will never forget that.
you are so damn lucky to meet such a humble man on earth, wish i can meet him too
I hope a valid nominator will nominate him for Nobel Peace Prize.
The girl interviewer looked so sad everytime the Pastor tells a heartbreaking story of the abandoned babies
This is someone who doesn’t just talk about the issues but does something about them .
Exactly 💯

I have seen him talk before on something like 60 Minutes. The authorities do not like his Baby Box project.
Interesting, why is that?
@@mvzv3913 Not really, it's because of the conservative Confucianism mindset that emphasize born out of wedlock baby is a big and shameful "THING" to the family and the mother herself. Under such conservative Confucianism mindset/thinking also means the government or the authority is incompetent/imbecile or FAILED to educate the people/public.
@@mvzv3913 Actually that's what the sjw's use to try and stop something good, it's because they don't like the source of the good being done. There's lots of fake people in the world it's not just christians. Anti-religion sjw's need to stop with this mess. Vouch for kindness no matter who it's from.
Lack of religion is the problem in the world
Korean public in general is also a group of bizarre people. They will blame the government/authority for FAILING to educate the youths or public at school or MSM. Then the society will label the infant's mother as SHAMELESS and DISGRACE for no good reason. The society will called her a shameless lewd woman without really find out what is actually happening to the mother.
If only I can, I would like to adopt a child.. Bless this man for keeping humanity in his heart…
The movie of the baby box is fricking amazing. I recommend it to everyone.
Jessica Carvalho yes a documentary. It goes more in depth of the story.
I got to watch the document. Thanks mate
whats the documentary called?
It’s called the drop box :)
💟
I'm convinced this guy is a genuine Saint or deserves Sainthood.
@@unebonnevie name a pedophile priest that became a recognized saint???
Being a saint in the Catholic Church would go a very hard process, it takes even a century for a people to became a saint.
Remember Mary Magdalene in the bible, she just became a saint recently after 2000 years.
@@unebonnevie I don't know if you're kidding but this topic is not a joke.
Besides, there's people who are not Catholics who will going to read your comment.
They'll conclude it is true even though it's totally NOT.
Church scandal and abuses is ABSOLUTELY a different topic.
@@connordrake5713 no-one cares ,get over it
This is truly a man of spiritual importance. God’s servant
People like pastor lee are the one's that make life worth a 2nd opportunity.
Hello friend make sure you take good care of them don't come unless anybody them are the leader of tomorrow. Nice to meet you is me Keanu reeves where are you from i really love your comments❤🙋🙋
I remember seeing a video from a media when I was 7 . It was the same person . I wanna be like him I'm now 13 and I currently volunteer at the local orphanage . This man is saving kids everyday . Let him live till he's 100+ .
You’re 13 and you volunteer at an orphanage? What do you do there when you’re still a kid yourself
Not Sansa Stark there is nothing wrong with helping if it comes from her heart and it doesn’t harm her
God bless you
I'm 14 and when this pandemic blows over, I wish to volunteer at an orphanage as well. I really respect you and thank you for sharing this story with us! Much respect and love! :)
While having this is great for emergency situations where mothers do not feel they are able to care for an infant. There is still the main problem that needs to acknowledged in South Korea. People aren't just abandoning infants for no reason. Korea's negative stigma against young/single mothers, lack of education for children with disabilities, and not a lot of help for women/parents with children is detrimental. We solve this issue, we decrease the need of a baby box.
I am also worried about the girls that have given birth because they were raped. Rapists should be punished--but the so many of the girls will suffer--so I help he is able to help them also.
Salute to this man, he save lives! ❤ Someone who has regard for life ...... Especially babies.
The question Why have babies when you can't raise them and abandon them like this? Leave them traumatized for life and to never to feel filial or be the same again.
Blessings to Pastor Lee and the babies he saves. That man is an angel
1:24 This part were he talks about Korean society being a saving-face and shaming culture, is the biggest problem. It influences the culture, the system, and the laws. It's endemic within Korean society, therefore this problem will never go away. Hopefully, future generations take bold steps to make core changes to improve their society.
Because if no one resisting these decadent of people, It will spread like a wildfire in Asian's Territory. Shaming them will put them back in their Places. Look what happened in Western Territory; if you are willing to pay the welfare for those other people's "responsibility" then go, but We don't do it here.
Machina Empire ? English isn’t your first language right?
@@CookiesTriedToEatMe What do you expect to Asian With Broken English. lolz
seems unlikely. they're stubborn people
Sadly it's not just in Korea, it's like that in majority of Asia
Pastor Lee deserve Nobel Peace Prize. Thanks Asian boss for sharing this videos
Beautiful life Amen!!!
Its so sad to see but also so glad that there’s people like him out there
💟
*I started tearing up when he read the letters*
These kind of people are true believers in God. May he succeed in his mission a true hero.
Empathy is not a product of religion bud.
@@OjaysReel sigh.. empathy is brought up and encouraged much more in religious communities. Please stop trying to shame/deny religion for no reason..
@@OjaysReel never said it was.... you are act much more selflessly if you know there is a force that is much greater than your existence and this life is a mere test
@@OjaysReel pag hilum oi..
@@OjaysReel also search for Abdul Sattar Edhi he's been doing this for 40 years in Pakistan. He passed away last year but now his son continues god's work.
He is indeed a savior sent by God. I am so glad a person like you exist for those babies.
I just realised that the interviewer was Dooby! She looks quite different here.
From mother to give a child or to leave a child away for someone else it's not easy at all because I've tried to give my son to adoption because I have financial difficulty and I could not give him away it was so hard to give him away so I kept him by the grace of God I raised him and he is 19yearold graduated high school now and I thank to God that I don't give him up because he is the most wonderful son that God has given me!
the fact that they offer counseling really shows that they care about the mother as much as they care for the baby.
This is strange. Though he does immediately save the lives of the babies, his work is apparently discouraged by local authorities, who believe he offers an "easy" way for parents to abandon their children.
In the USA, we have a “safe haven law” where mothers can abandon their babies at any fire station, hospital, or police station with no questions asked. Of course it’s nice to know some basic things like medical history etc. to help the baby in the future, but every time we hear of a story about a baby abandoned in the trash can, the authorities and the news reporters always remind people “you don’t have to do this, we have safe haven laws!” I don’t know why the government would discourage the saving of innocent babies. Just shows how corrupt they are.
And they wonder why babies are easily abandon in the first place. Gah I hate em.
Here's the thing: there is no easy way. But politics and governments have always had different agendas than those of people who actually want to help.
do you think a real mother would rather dump her babies so that her society doesn't look down on her? or do you underestimate your mother will power to raise you because your father is always beside her?
@@EmilyPetersenHomemaking I think the covernment discourages it because they don't care about the individuals life anyway.
If someone does something that is considered shamefull we want them to live with that shame. I think the covernment sees this as an easy way for the mother to get rid of their "shame"
People have been abandoning, selling, or doing even worse to their own babies from the beginning of time. What he provides is a good thing. He is saving babies and when he sees the birth mothers, he tries to encourage them to raise their own children.
He is truly a radical follower of Jesus. What needs to be stopped is the stigmatization of single mothers in Korea, discrimination against unmarried women, and the selling of babies via adoptions. Those adoption agencies and brokers are trafficking babies because they make sooo much money. That needs to be stopped.
when i despair about humanity, at its depravity, cruelty, horrors, God always leads me to stories like this and my faith that there is goodness, kindness and hope even in our bleak world is restored....thank you to pastor and everyone doing the work of Jesus here on earth....
I am a mother myself and i was deeply touched with this video. I think every country should have this baby box . Thank you Pastor,thank you good people!
@maja gigovic Pray that no country will ever need this babybox. Even pastor wants the same @12:09
In my country we have cradles placed in many cities.
No, there's no need to have any baby box anywhere in the world. People need to evolve with time. Culture should adapt to changes (especially Asian culture). Being a single mother is not an offence because the mother is not Virgin Mary ..there is a man somewhere in those sad circumstances... mostly married man who have had extra marital affairs and then dumped the girl when she is pregnant...shame on those men....and praise to this Pastor, you Sir are a Saint from heaven..bless your heart.
maja gigovic Germany has them
Само Бог је битан,жене треба да се плаше да оставе своју децу јер то је страшан грех,а овом човеку свака част ,нека му Бог подари пуно здравља и снаге да помаже овим бебицама,тешко се свим овим женама кад оду Богу на истину
he's so famous actually, this is the first time I knew before Asian Boss brought the issue.
well, I hope he always be healthy.
I pray that one day I get to serve in a ministry like Pastor Lee and have a beautiful family like his. Much love Pastor Lee ❤
Seeing him do God’s purpose makes me smile may he be blessed to continue to do so ❤️
I guess this is the only equivalent of a Safe Haven option in Korea. I just looked it up, and it seems the laws there don't protect mothers to allow them to anonymously give up their baby without fear of punishment. Definitely needs to be fixed.
It needs to be but the Korean government don't like it. They say its an easy way for parents to abandon their kids.
I used to be a Christian. I'm an atheist now but I love hearing about this kind of thing. It's nice to see some genuinely kind people in the church. Some are in it for personal goals such as getting on the good side of God or power. Where as this gentleman is being a great example of what a pastor should be.
Loving, caring, supportive, unjudgement, wanting the best for everyone and embracing. Even if I don't want to follow his example spiritually, I want to follow his example and how to treat his fellow human beings.
May you Find Jesus Christ in your hearr again. Take care☺️🙏
@@jbp8417 interestingly I recently lost my hearing in one ear and mostly in the other :') but I have my reasons for being an atheist. Have a great day
Super Noodles Religion should not define if you are a good or bad person.
@@TrinhNguyen-sh4fj I agree
Jesus didn't say to follow Christian..Jesus said follow me...Jesus is LOVE
Bless this man, holy crap my heart
Oh Wow! Praise the Lord! ❤️
I remember I watched him featured in a documentary before. His hair there is still black and he is much younger and the authorities seemed to be investigating his "baby box". They said it is illegal and is againts human rights.
But look at him now, still continuing the work with his respectful gray hair. He has done so much and the Lord never left him and his home ❤️
Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord! 😇
Hello friend make sure you take good care of them don't come unless anybody them are the leader of tomorrow. Nice to meet you is me Keanu reeves where are you from i really love your comments❤🙋🙋
If only every country had a person like him as a president or government..
This man.
Right here.
He is what people should look at and learn from.
God bless this man ♥️🙏
There are just people sent from above
Cant thank him enough for what he is doing
I'm so sick with those who mention "kdramas" or stuff in whichever Korean videos on yt. Like this is inspiring story so could you... Get you oppas out of your mind for a moment?
What a beautiful soul, no judgement towards others ,real empathy and such love and understanding towards all .
I haven't reached one minute and here I am sobbing like a 5 year old kid who drop his ice cream. Bless this pastor and I wish the babies to have a bright future!
That man is going straight to heaven
God bless this man. He is far more deserving of the Nobel Peace Prize than anyone I have known to receive it in recent times. It is tragic that he has not been more recognized.
I'm shocked, he aaid the youngest mother was 13y/o. That means she could've been 12 when she got pregnant, awful :(
Sorry I'm commenting 7 months later. He said the youngest mother was 14(korean age). That means in international age it's 12 OR 13.
Really!?????!? I couldn't expect that! but here in philippines the age consent is 12yo but the teenage pregnancy is some 15-18 or something. that could make depress!! it's pity for teen mothers that their partner is couldn't have resposibilities for their child
Taemin Yeo is korean age different? How do they count it?
@@misslemon1888 i think they consider it like the number of years you have been living, so like when you are born it's your first year, so you are 1, when in Occidental culture it you would be 0
Most likely that girl was raped and got pregnant.
Talk about living your life completely selflessly. This man is my role model. I need to do better.
This is truly amazing....words can not express how grateful I am...to see that God still has people in this world-who honestly care. I was in tears the entire time and prayed. Pastor Lee & his team will forever be blessed...and in God's divine protection.
P.S This video pricked my heart...in such a dark time in my life. Thank you for posting this. We are all God's children and he loves us all-no matter what.
Whoever reads this...you are special & never give up on you.❤
Amen
he saved thousands of lifes. who would dislike this?!
We have similar boxes in South Africa and it's such a fantastic idea, because there are too many stories about newborns being found dead in the most horrific places
SlashBat in America, we don’t have literally this, but we do haves law that allows newborns to be dropped at certain government buildings like; fire stations, libraries (while open), and hospitals. No questions asked.
I’m glad that so many countries have this type of program.
That's heart breaking
In america you can leave unwanted babies at churches, hospitals, police department, fire department so there’s absolutely no excuses for leaving babies to die in terrible places, none whatsoever, if you do your just a heartless selfish uncaring horrible person
