I was riding the subway the other day and noticed this ad by the door:
It's basically just trying to convince Koreans that adoption is a choice. On the top (in English) it says, "Adoption is love." Then in Korean it says "Adoption is another way that you can have a family" and "Adoption is a beautiful choice."
So many Koreans are extremely strongly opposed to adoption as they believe the blood-line is of utmost importance. But the birth rate has dropped in Korea, and people are waiting longer to start families. It was kind of nice to see this sign reminding Koreans of the adoption option.

Very cool....
Agree... but I personally think it would've been even better if it had said something about biological families too... like "helping single mothers to keep their children is also a way to raise a family".
Love the comments that 'Adoption is Love' and 'Another Way to have a Family.' If Dad & I hadn't gone that route we would never have had you & Kevin in our lives. It was definitely one of the best decisions we ever made and have never regretted it for a single moment. Glad to see that posters regarding adoption are appearing in Seoul!!
