Greeting
We hear of depressing news at times that sad-
dens us: news on child abuse including abusing or
abandoning them, and even threatening the lives of
their own children. In the past, there were people
who unwillingly gave up on their own children due
to unfortunate circumstances in Korea. Further-
more, there were physical punishment for disci-
plining children but most of the time with love and
care, which was understandable at that time, as
being uncommon for them to threaten children’s
lives or causing permanent injuries.
As a president of a welfare agency, I get to
have mixed feelings whenever facing various social
issues especially on children. For the past few years,
Korea has undergone dramatic changes in family
culture, as getting birth rates low, divorce and un-
married rates higher, and the widespread of cohab-
itation, living together before marriage, and staying
single by choice. In addition, such events reflect
how the ties of relationship between each member
of the family is not as secure as before and how
family does not have an absolute value anymore.
Then, would families continue to drift, having lost
its strong bonds and sincerity? It would not, nor
should it.
The potential strength that lies in each family
is still alive but has incredible power beyond our
imagination, and various functions in a family exert
its true power during the time of social crisis and
difficult times. There are countless times in disaster
or in war when people sensibly overcome imminent
difficulties by placing their families at the center of
their lives. Moreover, people find peace and sanctu-
ary within their families: even with missing mem-
bers of the family, each member is able to fill in the
vacancy through mutual trust and solace.
Families of Eastern Social Welfare Society are in-
deed exemplary of the potential within families. As
saying they gave a birth to their children through
their hearts, adoptive parents solidify trust and
develop attachment with their children adopted.
Like any other family, through their exchanges of
complaints and hurts, children grow to be beautiful
and firm and parents continue to mature. It is very
fulfilling and heartwarming to see the happy faces
that only children who are raised in the blessing
and love of their parents can make.
ESWS is striving to fulfill our mission of re-
specting value of life just as we pledged 48 years
ago to keep it to all ends no matter how the world
changes around us. ESWS will make continuous
efforts for helping more families form valuable
bonds through love and care for children. We pray
that God’s blessing will bestow upon every adopted
child, parent, and on all of the families related,
sponsors and supporters who enable us to do what
we do.

Interview Adoptive Family
Interviewer : Adoptive & foster mother, Kang, Eunjung
Adoption is the Same as Having a Child of Your Own
How did you feel at first when you met
Eun-Hae and Dong-Hae?
Until we adopted Eun-Hae in 2010, we had not
known anything about the baby who we were going to
meet, but we trusted that the social worker will work
as our “Samshin” (the goddess of childbearing who
oversees the birth and growth of children).
Upon seeing 35-day-old Eun-Hae for the first time,
what we felt was a feeling of awkwardness and
strangeness rather than intense attraction toward
her. However, as we daily bathe and feed her, looking
into her eyes, we felt a growing love within us and
began to think, ‘this little creature is our real baby!’
Before adopting Dong-Hae, we got to see a photo of
him. Although people around me didn’t find him
handsome, to me, a boy with doe-eyes and big nose
was extremely adorable and thought he will grow
into a handsome boy. That is how we met Dong-Hae
in the morning at the end-of-the-year celebration in
2011.♥
Could you tell us how your children,
Eun-Hae and Dong-Hae, are doing now?
Our family is now an ordinary family – a family full
of love and laughter, ordinarily bustling through
everyday life. However, we only pray for having this
normal life continued because we know that being
normal is happiness itself. Eun-Hae and Dong-Hae
are well aware that they were adopted.
Eun-Hae is a sensitive child, so she has had many
questions about her birth mother ever since she was
six to seven years old. Although we were bewildered
when she cried saying that she wants to see her birth
mother, we told her that we would share her curiosi-
ty and help her in her search as we already had de-
termined earlier. In addition, we try to get her to
have an opportunity to talk to other adoptees. We
also discuss how we can protect her birth-mother.
On the other hand, Dong-Hae is not too concerned
about his adoption, being a boy who loves running
around and playing the most. ♥
5
Is there a specific reason
why you became foster
parents after adoption?
While raising my own adopted
children, we thought that there
has to be no discrimination toward
my children only because of the
fact that they were adopted. Also,
as getting interested in many
social problems, we realized that
there are so many children out
there who could have been my
children and all of us in this socie-
ty have to take care of them and be
responsible for them altogether.
In addition, there was the Special
Adoption Act that one politician
brought up. Many adoptive par-
ents strove to stop the passing of
this act at that time, and my con-
cern for children awaiting adop-
tion grew. ♥
Do Eun-Hae and Dong-Hae
get along with the children
you are fostering?
Now, Whenever I ask my children,
“Should we stop fostering?” their
answer is a solid no. Eun-Hae and
Dong-Hae adore the foster babies
a lot. The foster children also come
and go to their sister’s and broth-
er’s rooms, having fun together.
My foster children are also very
popular not only among my family
including Eun-Hae and Dong-Hae
but also among other children
playing in the playground -- they
all try to get close to them and
even hug them wanting to play
together with them. Dong-Hae
even tells other children not to
touch their babies sometimes. ♥
Is there any advice you
would like to give to people
preparing adopting or fos-
tering children?
Whenever I meet foster mothers
who have been fostering babies for
20-30 years, I cannot help but
admire them so much and be im-
pressed by their hard work. As a
person who has been a foster par-
ent only for two years, I cannot
even imagine how big their love
toward the babies is nor how much
it hurts to say good-bye to them.
My body hurts all over having
raised young children at the age of
50. Yesterday, and even the day
before, I put the baby to sleep and
went to bed with pain relief
patches all over my body. However,
I realized that physical suffering
is nothing compared to the emo-
tional grief that comes with send-
ing the foster child that I had
raised all these times away for
adoption. Occasionally, I have
hesitant people around me who
want to become foster parents and
what they are scared of the most is
the parting and separation. I tell
them even at this moment while
they being hesitant there are so
many babies in need of love and
care but have no choice to live in
other facilities ; however, I cannot
easily force them to be foster par-
ents because I know how much
sacrifice and responsibility they
need to become one. ♥

Sponsored Program Story of Sponsored child
Park, Sarang, an Adoptee to be Sponsored
Who Dreams of Becoming the National Gymnast
What was it like when you first met Sa-
rang?
My husband and I decided to receive adoption con-
sultation in lieu of our anniversary. I had been
going through chemotherapy to treat my leukemia,
so it was difficult for me to conceive a child. There-
fore, we only wanted a healthy female baby without
caring about anything else like birth parents’
background.
It was recommended that a DNA test of the child I
was going to adopt is done just in case of certain
health issues, but we refused the test because we
were determined to raise her no matter her health
conditions.
When we first met her, all we could feel was grate-
fulness. Sarang had long arms and legs and a gen-
der-neutral face – she also had thick eyebrows like
we hoped for because all of our family agreed that
she looked just like her father when he was
young.♥
Since when did Sarang begin to have
interest in gymnastics?
After hearing that children with the same physique
as Sarang normally show talent in athletics, we got
Sarang to participate in a sports class during run
by Seoul Seobu District Office of Education during
her winter break when she was a first grader.
The coach she met at this program cherished her,
and Sarang herself was interested in the class.
Subsequently, Sarang transferred to an elemen-
tary school which has artistic gymnastics in the
curriculum at the beginning of her second grade
because not only did the sports class coach recom-
mended it, but ultimately because Sarang wanted
to do so herself. ♥
Interviewer : Sarang’s Mother

▲ Sarang training at the gym
How have been the performances and
prospects of Sarang’s gymnastics?
After only three to four months of starting gym-
nastics, Sarang was selected as a gifted gymnast by
Ewha Womans University. In her 6th grade, Sa-
rang won a gold medal overall and a silver medal in
vault at the 2018 National Junior Sports Festival.
In addition, she competes in the yearly Korean
National Team Selection. She also has to balance
athletics and academics because a certain level of
academic grades is required for her to participate
in those competitions.♥
What kind of support does Sarang need
in the future?
Sarang only has underclothes used for competi-
tions that we bought her when she first started
gymnastics. Currently, she has to wear athletic
outfits that are handed down by other athletes.
Artistic gymnastics uniforms mostly imported tend
to be expensive. Furthermore, as those clothes need
washing everyday due to the daily training, she
needs extra uniforms for practices and competi-
tions. From buying the music for competitions,
choreography, and to having her get massages
after training to prevent cramps, there are so many
more expenses than we expected that we find it
difficult to keep up with. To make situations even
worse, the recent COVID-19 pandemic and my
health issues have caused my husband to close the
shop he used to run, temporarily making a living
from working for a quarantine-related job. Luckily,
burdens have been somewhat lifted thanks to
ESWS as Sarang was selected as one of the Schol-
arship recipients of ESWS Scholarship Program.
However, Sarang still needs more financial support
to achieve her dreams.♥

Story of Adoptive Family Adoptee, Park, Ga-on
Adopted Child Overcoming Childhood Cancer with Love
Ga-on! Get Healthier and Happier
Ga-on, Born from the Heart
Mrs. Jin Ha, Jin (alias) and her husband, who have
always loved children, first met Ga-on (alias) while
they were serving as a foster family for Eastern
Social Welfare Society.
The foster family dearly wished for Ga-on to be
adopted within the country, but because many
prospective adoptive parents in Korea hope for a
female child, Ga-on was to be adopted to a family
overseas.
Upon hearing this news, Mr. and Mrs. Jin were
heartbroken. ♥
Started a family
They believed that it was better for them to adopt
Ga-on after having taken care of him wholeheart-
edly for all that time, rather than getting in adopt-
ed abroad.
Consequently, they received permission from the
Family Court to adopt him and completed all four
steps of ESWS’s post-adoption follow-up service.
Having fulfilled all the legal requirements, Mr. and
Mrs. Jin were happily enjoying their normal lives
with Ga-on.
However, in August of 2019, Mr. and Mrs. Jin no-
ticed that Ga-on was having trouble lifting his
arms, so they took him to the hospital immediately.
After the MRI test, Ga-on was diagnosed with
Langerhans cell histiocytosis – a type of cancer – by
his scapula, and Mr. and Mrs. Jin were immensely
shocked.♥
9
Support from people in the same boat
Ga-on’s family has been very close with the support
group, which consists of about 50 adoptive families
if ESWS in Daejeon region. Upon hearing the news,
the support group grieved over and prayed for Ga-
on’s circumstance.
Families in numerous communities also raised
5,000,000 KRW ($5000) as a donation for Ga-on’s
medical expenses. Furthermore, Eastern Daejeon
Office donated around 500,000 KRW ($500) after
learning about Ga-on’s diagnosis.
Even though Ga-on’s foster parents wished for
nothing more than prayers for Ga-on, the adoptive
parents’ support group expressed that “Ga-on could
have been my child” and continued to work towards
Ga-on’s recovery along with Mr. and Mrs. Jin. With
everyone’s thoughts and prayers, Ga-on has suc-
cessfully undergone surgery, and his health has
recovered for the most part.
Now, Ga-on, a mischievous boy, has been enjoying
an active life he used to be and only needs to return
to the hospital for a post-operation check-up every
three to five months.♥
Ga-on! Get Healthier and Happier!
Ga-on’s parents are glad that Ga-on was able to be
adopted by them and that they could overcome this
struggle together.
They also wanted to give the greatest thanks to the
numerous adoptive families that have supported
them both materially and spiritually through fi-
nancial donations and prayers.
Ga-on’s parents are hoping that Ga-on will contin-
ue to grow as a healthy, happy child with their love
and the encouragements of many adoptive fami-
lies.♥

Sponsored Program Story of Sponsored Kopino, Lee, Changdo
Kopino, Changdo Lee’s Dream of
Overcoming Poverty and Becoming a Doctor
Changdo Lee, the eldest son of a poor family, want-
ed to study hard to achieve his dream of becoming a
doctor. He thought that this was the only way to
overcome poverty. However, despite his hard work,
he also encountered unexpected difficulties. His
mother collapsed due to low blood pressure, which
made him think about quitting his studies and
giving up on graduate school for the sake of his
family’s livelihood. However, Chang Do was able to
overcome these difficulties and take a closer step to
his dream of becoming a doctor thanks to the
scholarship he received from ESWS. With the col-
lege tuition supported by ESWS and Korean com-
munity in the Philippines, he is currently busy as
an intern at the hospital, and he is ready to enter
the third grade in July this year. Once he becomes a
doctor, Changdo wants to do medical services for
the poor, in return for the help that he has received.
Chang Do visits the Angeles Eastern Children
Center twice a month, where he serves as an ex-
ample for the children while conducting programs
and doing volunteer activities. At the Angeles
Eastern Children Center, there are 106 students
are in need of tuition fees to carry on with their
school life just like Chang Do Lee. That is why we
would like to ask for your continued support to help
Kopino and poor students in the Philippines, so
that they can receive their education in a better
environment.♥
Changdo, a Kopino(a child between a Korean father and a Filipino mother), lived with his
Korean father until he was four years old, but now he has no contact with him, who returned
to Korea. As he currently living with his mother, they are having some financial difficulties.
Chang Do, who is his family’s greatest pride, is currently a sophomore at the Angeles Univer-
sity Foundation.

Raise a Dream! Embrace Hope!
Support for the Educational Environment of Sri Lanka
Now, children here can be safely educated and
taken care of during the daytime on behalf of par-
ents who have to work in the tea fields from very
early in the morning. ESWS hopes that these chil-
dren can grow up in a better educational environ-
ment, enabling them to dream of a better future.
We have implemented different programs to im-
prove the lack of cultural awareness of local resi-
dents, such as renovating libraries, renovating
playgrounds to guarantee the children's physical
development and play rights, supporting multime-
dia systems to improve their academic performance,
educating teachers to strengthen their abilities,
and improving the awareness toward education
among local residents.♥
Since 2018, Eastern Social Welfare Society, in cooperation with KOICA, has supported for as
many children as possible to have an opportunity to receive high-quality education through
efforts like opening kindergartens and supporting their operation, renovating schools and kin-
dergartens to improve the environment, offering education programs for teachers. Eastern So-
cial Welfare Society offers impoverished children an educational environment where they can
study and play freely will continue in 2020.
