I am looking for my daughter. She was born in Nupai, Paju, Korea
on 11 Aug 1962. The date of her birth on any adoption paperwork
could vary because of the lunar calendar and translation problems.
Possibly the date could be 9 Sep., 1962. Her given name was Ena
(Ina) Kim. Her adoption was forced by a baby broker. She left
Korea, from Kimpo Airport, in Sep.,1966. I thought she lived in
California for awhile as a child, but she may have lived in New
York or New Jersey. Her American family may have given her the
name Mary. The man who adopted her was in his 50's in 1966 and
a song composer of some type. He and his wife had raised a adopted
son who was in his 20's in 1966 and was a college graduate, who
had attended school with the man, a Mr. Yun, who arranged the
adoption. Mr. Yun was from Seoul, Korea. Ena's father was an American
soldier. She had brown hair and eyes as a child. She only spoke
Korean before she left for the US other than a few English words.
She learned this English because Mr. Yun took her to Seoul for
several weeks for English lessons at his home in 1966. She had
a scar on her back from a burn. My name is Sun Po Ace (Kim). Please
