Woman finds lost twin sister across the globe
By adminI was born August 11, 1986 in South Korea. I am 21 years old and was adopted by my American parents at four months old.
Just this last May of 2007, I learned I was a twin separated at birth. My twin coincidentally learned of my existence several months later, in September. Because of that coincidence, she began searching for me, as I already had begun searching for her. If not for her search, I would likely never have found her, or known if she was even alive.
She lives with our birthmother in South Korea, and doesn’t speak very much English. The story was in the Star Tribune on December 30, 2007, with a follow-up story in February.
I wish I could be with her and get to know her, but the distance and the language barrier, and the lack of money make it difficult. I have met her one time and I will never forget it.
