Adam Crapser, a Korean adoptee, has been at the center of a legal battle highlighting the flaws in the United States adoption system that have left many international adoptees without citizenship. After living in the US for 37 years, Crapser was deported in 2016 due to a lack of proper citizenship paperwork.
Currently, Crapser is fighting for restitution in a Seoul courtroom, emphasizing the impact on his life and his separation from his two children, including a 10-year-old daughter. His case underscores the challenges faced by international adoptees who fall through the cracks of the legal system.
