- Born in Seoul Korea, raised in rural Alaska. This is my abridged story as a small town Korean Alaskan adoptee - From my early days until right after college.
**Major apologies in advance for my lighting set up - I was without proper gear, hence the occasional flashes. Still learning how to do this UA-cam thing right ^_^
Awesome story. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for sharing. I just watched all of the videos. I love your perspective and your creativity in your drawings. Definitely a unique way to animate your journey.
Thanks for watching!
You’re so good at drawing
🙏 Thank you for watching :)
Kee, this is brilliant! I will never forget how you always made a mural out of the little animal and nature stamps I used to mark completed homework. I swear I saved some of them, but they haven't turned up yet. And I remember that you put drawings of your friends on your at least one of your Christmas plates. So glad you included the plays you filmed in middle school, too. This is a great way to reflect...and a perfect time, too. Big hug for you!
This is awesome, Kee! We loved watching it and look forward to the next installments!
Kee, this is incredible! Well done! Thanks for sharing your story.
I just came from the AFA page too. This is great. Your video editing skills are amazing. I love that you're speaking up about the issues adoptees face.
Thank you Thomas. I'm finding the issues are more common than I thought, seems like we all have had somewhat similar experiences. Great to connect with you here!
This is really great! Love the animations :) thanks for sharing this !
I want to visit Alaska again. Great story ❤️
I loved this!!
Do you remember the airbnb place you stayed when you visited South Korea?
I was the host, and wonder if you found your Korean parent :) Hope you did.
I do remember! Jieun, right? Thank you for checking back, I hope you are well :) I had to postpone the search for a bit but am about to start it again very soon (if Covid times allow). I did just connect with someone though!! A cousin who lives in the U.S.
Good to know that you remember me! I still have the card you wrote, which made me think of you!
That's a very good news! How did you find him?
@@jieunkang9650 Nice to know you still have my card! He reached out to me through one of the DNA websites I submitted a sample to. I plan to make a video on it eventually, before I visit Seoul again. Which will be soon.
Hahaha so good, Kee! You made me want to do one for myself but I’m not a great drawer 😂
Haha hey, I would LOVE to see yours! It'd be so interesting!
Amazing video!!!!
Love it! Original due to the drawings (love the narrative too)! Fantastic way to help people visualise. Thanks for sharing .. hope you join into the worldwide network of adult intercountry adoptees who like to think critically about intercountry adoption ... at www.intercountryadopteevoices.com ... and can't wait until Part 2!!
Thank you Lynelle! Part 2 was actually attached at the end - ua-cam.com/video/cd5lad0l4_c/v-deo.html
