Cover Story: Approximately 3600 Korean children have been adopted to Australia. Existing studies have tended to approach transnational adoption from child development, social welfare, or identity perspectives. The current article approaches the population from a migration perspective, analysing Korean adoption to Australia as a state-sanctioned transnational migratory mechanism that has facilitated the movement of children of predominantly single mothers in South Korea to adoptive families in Australia. Situating adoption practices within the socio-political contexts and larger migration trends of both countries, the authors identify multiple enabling factors for the ‘quiet’ flow of Korean children for adoption and argue the very ‘quietness’ of the adoption system is a source of concern.
