The father is just as responsible as the mother. How did he not know about the babies!? He should be in jail too. It sounds like all the responsibility is placed on the mother. He should’ve worn a condom if they were struggling financially and for his wife’s mental health struggle.

I was a postpartum nurse in the Philippines & in the USA & we never discharge infants from the hospital unless their birth has already been registered. Those infants that were found abandoned in the trash or just anywhere were born outside of the hospital or were concealed from medical personnel.

So, you have a nation with a severe decline in birth rate, and, you've got this. How does the country manage to learn from these terrible crimes? What does it mean? Are kids not cherished? Is money and social status too important, enough to think that a child will jeopardize it? Or, is there a real issue with proper mental healthcare?

instead of blaming the mothers, society should help them. patriarchies are always criminalizing women. give them the resources - birth control, sex education, resources to give birth safely and take care of the child, finance the child's future.

Heartbreaking. Terribly sad for those innocent babies. So many sick, demented, and evil people in this world. How come they can skip the register procedures? Why is the blame put to mothers only? Where are the fathers? Thanks to the producer and team. You are doing an awesome job by denouncing such hineous crimes and brought to light the dark side of K-society. Your documentaries are top notch. I saw the baby box. The pastor and it’s team are wonderful saviors.

did ANYONE stop to think that may be that first father is freaking abusive and actually forced her or even killed the babies himself?! And maybe she is also a victim?! Why was she the only one arrested?! How messed up! They need to investigate deeper! Maybe they are both guilty, wtff

This really breaks my heart..  There’s baby boxes the least you can do is leave the baby in a safe place.   Selling your child for money??? Outrageous!!

I actually wish that the investigators had followed these 'brokers', so we would know where they're operating from and how many are involved in their syndicates....and I hope the Police are investigating into all those shown in this documentary.

It's SHAMEFUL that South Korea hasn't made tight and severely punishable laws to protect newborns and children. ABHORRENTLY SHAMEFUL. All this is happening when "on paper" the birth rate is at a record all time low Quote:- "The country's total fertility rate, the average number of children a woman bears in her lifetime, came to a record low of 0.7 in the second quarter of 2023, down 0.05 from a year earlier. It was much lower than the replacement level of 2.1 that would keep Korea's population stable at 51 million.30 Aug 2023." It's sickeningly heartbreaking that newborns...that all children are not protected. Including those that are in orphanages. It's so obvious that they're sold to Pedophiles or sold into Slavery...and probably only a very minute percentage sold abroad to genuine couples wanting to adopt a newborn. The brokers selling them onto the Highest Bidder. ....'brokers', let that word sink in. It's also tragic that if they're not trafficked they're murdered, what kind of world is this?!! I hope that every woman or child that gives birth is fully supported and no longer stigmatised. They need to be fully supported financially until such times they can work to contribute towards costs. Local Doctors, Pharmacists and Hospitals all need to abide by informing the government of all  pregnancies. The fathers also need to be made accountable too. It's too easy for them to walk away and carry on their lives without any stigmas or worries. I find it strange that when SK couple are not wanting to marry or have children because of SK's cost of living, that the government is not doing more to help this situation. A very tragic report indeed.

This is so SAD 😢.  Programs for unwed mothers should be established and counseling be available so they don’t sell their babies or kill them.  I feel the facade is starting to crack.…the suicides, the bullying and paid off leadership,  etc … it’s a mess.   Hidden Sin Always get yelled out from the rooftops.  🙆🏻‍♀️🙏🏽💔

Even animals don’t treat their offspring this bad. What a place.
