"South Korea adoption law: More harm than good?" (at 4:23). France 24 – via YouTube. Interviewer: "First of all, I'd like to know what you think of the baby box. Is it helping or hindering the plight of the country's unwanted children?" Oke: "It's hindering it actually. It's already been talked about enough in the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. The committee, for that convention, has addressed baby boxes, and that they do violate the rights of the child." Interviewer: "And why is that?" Oke: "Because when you put a child in that box such as that, first of all, we should address that it is actually illegal to abandon a child, so the fact is that box is illegal in Korea. Second of all, it violates our rights because they don't have a right to an identity, there's no way for them to trace the parent, so it should go through the proper channels, and when you have a box like that, there's been evidence and research done that it actually can encourage abandonment."
Kim, Eleana J. (July 29, 2013). Adoptees and the Politics of Belonging". The Korea Society – via YouTube. From 26:56: "Another aspect of the Korean adoptee experience that I explore in my book is their relationship to South Korea and the South Korean state, and one of the things that the South Korean government was, in a way, compelled to do in the late 1990s was to recognize overseas adoptees as Koreans in some way. So by 1998, adult Korean adoptees who were living in Korea petitioned the South Korean state to recognize them as overseas Koreans, Hanguggye dongpo, so that meant that they would be eligible for a special visa status that would allow them to return to South Korea for extended periods of time, and, in line with this, this is an image from the overseas Korean foundation summer cultural program for overseas adoptees, and so they developed these programs to help adult adoptees return to Korea and learn something about what it means to be Korean, so these programs are typically focused on traditional Korean culture, adoptees dressing up in hanbok and learning how to make kimchi, such as these images here."
