      abstract = {A greatmobilization began in South Korea in the 1990s:  adult transnational adopteesbegan to return to their birth  country and meet for the first time with theirbirth  parents-sometimes in televised encounters which garnered  high ratings. What makes the case of South Korea remarkable  is the sheerscale of the activity that has taken place  around the adult adoptees' return,and by extension the  national significance that has been accorded to thesefamily  meetings.Informed by theauthor's own experience as an  adoptee and two years of ethnographic research inSeoul, as  well as an analysis of the popular television program "I  Want toSee This Person Again," which reunites families,  Meeting Once Moresheds light on an understudied aspect of  transnational adoption: the impact ofadoptees on their  birth country, and especially on their birth families.  Thevolume offers a complex and fascinating contribution to  the study of newkinship models, migration, and the  anthropology of media, as well as to thestudy of South  Korea.},
