Lee Eungsun (mother), who found her family after being missing for 44 years and adopted to the United States, is having a video call with Yoon Sangae (American name Dennis McCarty) on the morning of the 15th at the Missing Persons Family Support Center of the Dongdaemun-gu Police Agency in Seoul.

This reunion is the first case of confirming parent-child relationships with families in Korea by collecting and analyzing the adoptee's DNA at overseas diplomatic missions through the 'Overseas Korean Adoptee Family Search' system.

Due to difficulties in immigration procedures caused by the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19), the families reunited via non-face-to-face video calls plan to meet in person once the COVID-19 situation stabilizes. / Reporter Moon Honam munonam@
