Ok... so i know i have posted a few different topics.
This one i have looked at and researched and cant find anything helpful to me. I have tried the internet and the 'phone book' but i don't read Korean well and am a bit lost.
Here is the story of what im trying to do.
About 8 months ago my grandma passed away. Her brother had already passed and we are not very connected as a large family. i was told my cousin had moved to Korea (Seoul) and is living with his girlfriend. i have met him a few times and don't want to lose more family (bit of a family tragedy after the passing of Grandma). i don't have much information to go off unfortunately but i don't think many people in Seoul would have his name hahaha!
Is there anything that anyone can recommend to me in my search for him? Thank you very much for all responses!! |

You can also try Immigration.
The only way to know if they will help you is to ask them. |
