I am adopted from South Korea. I am 20 years old and i just want to let you know that i admire your generosity and compassion for giving your child a wonderful life. Not only that but you are giving every kid that is adopted from korea like myself hope. and most importantly love in our life's. Thank you thank you thank you
your video is beautiful. It made me cry alot. I have a daughter who I adopted from Korea at 8 months old and is now 4 and I cant imagine my life without her. Your daughter is so beautiful. I love her little personality. Thank you for a beautiful video.
I loved this video. Your child is so sweet. And I loved how her foster mother was saddened by her departure. Shows this child was loved even prior to the adoption.
this was so beautiful, the love she received from her foster umma (mom), and the love she is receiving from you two are so inspirational :) thank you for lifting up my spirits
Thank you. That was 11 years ago. She is almost 17 now and taller than her mother. I wish I could re live those times. Lots of great memories as she grew up.. She turned out to be a good person..
She is 17 now and taller than her mother. She turned out to be a great young lady, confident and has always been a joy to be around. Her story had a happy ending...
AWWW! So bittersweet! it made me happy that she was so happy & willing to go with her new parents, but I teared up at her foster mother's goodbye tears! I also love how she was already calling them mommy & daddy!! ... and I definitely loved the black jack picture =]
Thanks. She actually turns 18 next month so this is quite some time ago. She turned out to be a great young lady, never a bit of trouble. We are lucky..
Your video brought tears to my eyes because I wished for a family like yours. I was adopted from a Korean orphanage, but did not have a happy ending like your little one. The family that adopted me, there wasn't screening, no home visit, no background check, and I was tormented, abused in every way and by the time I was 7 I would pray for death. I am now in the process of starting an organization for adoptees who are like me. Thank you for treating her so well and keeping her culture too.
Sondra Anderson That is a real bummer. My wife and I both live in HK (40 years combined) and we adopted a Korean child locally. He was born to a young Korean expat. Both my wife and I speak Korean. He's in Korea regularly and goes to Korean International School every Saturday and one on one every Tuesday. He is loved as is his Jewish Korean Hong Kong-born identity. I'm also a member of a HK Adoption Group which is made up primarily of American couples looking to bring children with special needs into their homes. These (usually older) kids are in an orphanage. There appears to be an amazing amount of love and compassion in these people as well. I know this doesn't diminish your hurt, but I do think things have changed with regards to background checks and cultural sensitivity. HK, for example, will first and foremost place children within the same ethnicity. I think that's standard practice now. I also think we've progressed to a place where most people would respect - or at least consider - the birth culture of a child. The parents in that group certainly do. But, truly, the 'fix' will come when adoption in Asia is no longer seen as taboo. I hope you find peace in your journey.
I am sorry to hear you had a tough life as an adoptee. It sounds like you are strong and are overcoming your challenges. Thank you for your comment, we are lucky to have her, it is easy to treat her nicely...
God bless your family for bringing Mia (and her brothers) into your lives. Thank you for posting this. My husband and I just applied to adopt from China.
Her English is just about fluent. She is very clever, nothing we did, just genetically very smart. She caught on so quickly that after 4 months of being home her Pre K teacher said she was ahead of most of the English born children in class. Maybe I will do a video where I ask her questions, it would blow people away at how fast she mastered the language.
She will be 17 in 3 weeks. Such a long time ago. She just arrive from Korea in that photo and I took her to the desert for a buggy race. She had no clue as to what was going on and didn't speak a word of English. It was just me and her that weekend so it was funny trying to communicate. If you want to see the buggy race there is a video called Powder puff Race I believe. I will try and find it and link it. Great memories..
@@matthewcyahoo my oldest granddaughter is 17and that seems to be a special age.You guys have done a wonderful job raising Mia and have brought alot of joy to others like me God bless
Mon Dieu qu'elle est jolie , magnifique , souriante , sociale , il y a 14 ans !!! ce doit être désormais une jeune fille épanouie et superbe j'adore les filles , depuis toujours .... I love .... J' Aime
That was great!! I'm very happy for you all. You are blessed! She is a cutie!! People always say that the child is lucky. We know as parents we're the lucky ones.
Thanks for the comments. We were very lucky with Korea as our wait was very short. We are actually going to pick up a son in the next two months from the same childrens hospital. We worked with Dillon International in Tustin, CA. I would recommend working with them.
@@matthewcyahoo Wow I just noticed you answered, sorry I didn't get notified. Anyway thanks for your response. I am so glad everything has turned out good. I wish your family nothing but the very best. Ron
We are adopting another child, a boy and are returning to Korea this summer to pick him up. We are going to have lunch with Mia's foster Mom so it will be nice for her to see how well she is doing.
Shes beautiful- im adopted from korea and this story really touched my heart! I also have a brother adopted from korea- and i was also adopted from the easten welfare society :) congrats to ur beautiful family :) 화이팅!
nice video. I am also adopted through Eastern Social Welfare Society. It is such a nice place. I was just there over the summer. It is very nice you adopted an "older" child, my best friend was adopted as an older child too.
My wife is Korean and that is all they speak in the house. Her Korean is better now than it was when she left Korea at 4 years of age. They talk behind my back though so it isn't fair..
Thank you for your comments. We are heading back to the same place in korea to adopt a son in about 6 weeks. We will meet him in the same room. I like the Pink Floyd video, Coming Back to Life, you have on your page. It is one of my favorite songs..
@teammaddison The rules are you need an agency, and the process is long. You have to do homework, medical tests, visits from a psychologist, etc. It is a lot of money but worth it.. If you are in Korea as a resident I think it would be much easier but I am not sure of the process there.
@jaxangelchica Thanks for the comments. We are very lucky. If you watch any of the newer videos you will see she is not the same person now as she was in that video. Much bigger, fluent in English, etc. She is still the best daughter ever though..
It is a nice place. People think we are nice for adopting an older child but we are the lucky ones. She is perfect. We are heading back to Eastern in March to pick up our son. We would have taken another older child but they assigned us a baby this time. We would take whatever we could get.
Thank you. She is great and we are very lucky. There are a lot of videos I posted of her and you will see her personality shine through in all of them.
The chair comment is amazing as we are going back to Eastern in about 6 weeks to pick up our son and the picture we received was in the same exact chair. That chair has a lot of history.
Mia is almost 9 and Jenson is 3. We are planning to get remarried in Las Vegas over Thanksgiving and all four of us will wear the outfits. They are called Hanboks..
Mia is doing great. She is in kindergarten and they take her out of class everyday to read with the 1st graders. She is smart, happy and loves having a family. The most recent video I posted is "Mia the off road racer". You can see her progress and growth on the video.
She is so precious! And blessed! My husband and I are hoping to adopt when we get to Korea later this year. What was the adoption process like for you. If you don't mind, what rules and requirements did you have to meet.
props for keeping it real. i actually came here to delete my comment after i watched your other videos which made it clear you're actively encouraging Mia not to forget her roots. there was this comment on another vid about you telling her it's alright to be Korean when she was trying to fit in which was wonderful. i really enjoyed all the videos. i think it's a great thing you're doing and a wonderful story.
The wife is Korean. I think the breakdown in terms of acceptance / ease of transition would be: - Korean couple - 1 Korean adult - Asian couple - 1 Asian adult
Did she speak any English when you initially went to pick her up? (I'm guessing there wouldn't have been any reason why she would- but I'm just curiouse.) It must have been a pretty easy transition seeing as how her mom speaks korean.. awesome. It would be pretty amazing to go through the adoption process. Happy that this little one has a "family", (clearly she had some caregivers that really cared about her- but I mean family in the traditional sense-- to call her own.)
I appreciate your message. I am glad they help you, the waiting was the hardest part. I hear good things about Holt so you are in good hands.. It is a great journey you are embarking on, if we can be of any help please let us know...
@chaelaw2053 I spoke to my daughter and told her about you coming from Eastern in 1986 and sitting in the red and gold chair and she was very excited. Her reaction surprised me, she was intrigued.
@sarahxxkristine We just adopted a brother for her. The video is called "Mia Goes Back to Korea and Comes Home with a Brother". It is a 5 part series but shows her return to Eastern. Very emotional for her..
@jaydanpaul Thanks for the feedback. There is also a video of us picking up her brother 3 months ago. It is called Mia Goes Home to Korea and comes back with a brother. it is a 5 parter and much more emotional. Korea has a good system for orphans, a lot of countries you just go to an orphanage and pick out a child. I think Koreas system is better than ours in the US.
Of course. We are waiting for word to travel right now. We expect to be called within the next 4-6 weeks. I will post it as soon as we come back from the trip.
@Bdiggity3sims It is also a great thing she did for us.. We just adopted again. it is a 5 part video I posted called Mia goes home to Korea and comes home with a brother. Kind of a sad video as she went back to the "hospital" but happy also as she came home with a brother.
You have cute Kids. How old are they now ? I love the wedding dresses/clothes. From which country are the dresses ? I love asia Wedding Dress.My brother and my sister in la wore "west "wedding dresses/clothes in Germany and Japanese one in Japan (her home country).
Kinda the sweetspot for Korean adoptions. Korea had put in stringent regulations about 10 years prior, but slowly started to enforce them a bit more. In 2011-12 is when they dropped the hammer. Generally speaking, all of her paperwork should be good. No funny business. Even today, this couple probably would qualify since the wife is Korean. International adoptions: 2001: 2400 2007: 1300 2012: 236 (moved a bit higher afterwards, then slide again.) 2013: 535 2022: 142 The weird part is why even the domestic adoptions slide. I'm guessing there was some abuse issues and they had to tighten up regulations. Domestic adoptions went from 1700 to 180.
Yes, it makes it easier but it would have worked out either way. Since she was adopted and returned in Korea twice they really liked that my wife spoke korean..
@matthewcyahoo ya never know- I have friends my age who arent interested in korean culture and their 20-23....but I also know other adoptees who waited til they were in their 30s-40s to find their parents. I guess it depends on the child. I know I am really eager to find my birth mom. It may be different for you because ur children have a korean mother...I have two caucasian parents and my eagerness to get in touch with my korean roots led me to searching for my birth mom.
great video but the part about how mee hyang park's life was coming to an end made me a bit uncomfortable. i know it's probably just semantics but she'll always be mee hyang and saying that mia's life begins while mee hyang's ends seems like a zero sum thing.
@tomboy313 That is my same goal. I really want to adopt from Korea. I read and write in Korean fluently and know the language and culture, so I think that would maybe help. :)
@matthewcyahoo yes! i watched and oh my goodness hes the cutest baby I have ever seen- My brother is 6 years younger than me, but we are very close. I am currently searching for my birth mom and im returning to korea this summer for the first time! I am very excited- i am so happy i found ur videos! ur children and ur wife are absolutely beautiful :)

- Korean couple
- 1 Korean adult
- Asian couple
- 1 Asian adult
how old is she now? shes adorable. she's a sweetheart
Ciao grazie anche avoi famiglia complimeti che avete una bella bambina carina ciao tutti

@tomboy313
That is a good goal to have. there are a lot of kids with no families who need help. Good luck..
I just posted the long version of this video. It shows even more fun stuff I had to cut out of the short version.
Kinda the sweetspot for Korean adoptions. Korea had put in stringent regulations about 10 years prior, but slowly started to enforce them a bit more. In 2011-12 is when they dropped the hammer.
Generally speaking, all of her paperwork should be good. No funny business. Even today, this couple probably would qualify since the wife is Korean.
International adoptions:
2001: 2400
2007: 1300
2012: 236
(moved a bit higher afterwards, then slide again.)
2013: 535
2022: 142
The weird part is why even the domestic adoptions slide. I'm guessing there was some abuse issues and they had to tighten up regulations. Domestic adoptions went from 1700 to 180.
I would love to learn korean. I'm so interested in Korea. :)

Me too. I don't understand either..
Yes, it makes it easier but it would have worked out either way. Since she was adopted and returned in Korea twice they really liked that my wife spoke korean..
why they returned a so sweet and lovely baby girl??
OH that must have been so confusing for her! She is such a happy and adorable little girl. She s home now though, so it all happened for a reason💖🧡💞❤💙
Why on earth was she returned. Can't imagine
Looks like she is a happy child so she was treated well and loved
