Opis

At least once in life, you will ask your parents about how you came into this world, what happened the day you were born, how the day looked like, how your parents went to the hospital, how you looked like at that moment... There are so many things you may wonder about the time you came into the world. I wanted to ask these precious questions, but no one knew. The only thing I knew was that I was abandoned at a police station in Seoul, Korea and put into adoption. For my eighteenth birthday my mother presented me with a diary she kept since the life-long decision was made to adopt a child. This helped answer many questions in my life but there was still something missing in my life. That was until 26 years later, I finally had a chance to find my story, my history, what happened the day I came into this world... and what I missed in my life.
