Dozens of South Korean adoptees who were sent to Danish parents as children in the 1970s and 1980s have demanded the South Korean government investigate the circumstances surrounding their adoptions, which they say were corrupted by practices that falsified or obscured children’s origins.
The Truth and Reconciliation Commission in the South Korean capital Seoul has up to four months to decide whether to accept the application collectively filed on Tuesday by the 53 adoptees in Denmark.
