Meet Dr. Byung Kuk Cho who was an amazing pediatrician and humanitarian who served orphans and adoptees post Korean War. This interview discusses and helps promote Dr. Cho's memoires of the horrors, and realities of war along with hope, willing serving others that brought change to orphans and adoptees. This interview also brings about the ever important discussion about the adoption politics amongst adoptees which became known as an industry and where we became the inevitable collateral of Korea's impoverished and war torn history. Whatever side you may find yourself on, this is an interview you do not want to miss and we hope to educate and bring knowledge about the inevitable situation.
