South Korea has uncovered new evidence indicating that mothers were coerced into giving up their babies for adoption in various countries, including Australia, Denmark, and the United States. A recent commission report reveals that hospitals and adoption agencies may have colluded to pressure primarily single mothers into relinquishing their children. Since the 1950s, over 200,000 South Korean children have been adopted internationally. However, growing allegations suggest a systematic practice where maternity wards and adoption agencies worked together to force parents, particularly those without partners, to surrender their infants.
