A South Korean truth commission has revealed that the government systematically falsified birth records and misrepresented children as orphans to facilitate international adoptions. At least 170,000 children were sent abroad over decades, often without proper oversight or consent from their birth families. The inquiry found that adoption agencies profited from the practice, while the government failed to ensure the safety of adopted children. The commission has called for an official apology to those affected. This revelation sheds light on a dark chapter of South Korea’s history and raises questions about accountability and reparations.
