Please note that NCRC, which still uses the KAS website to process the requests of Adoptees, has issued a statement in Korean on their Facebook page:
Translation via ChaGPT:
"Due to a fire at the Daejeon Center of the National Information Resources Service, access to public websites operated by the government is expected to be unstable for the time being.
As a result, access to certain systems used by child welfare workers (such as those related to child abuse, adoption, crisis pregnancies, child protection, and the Hope Connection platform) is currently restricted.
Urgent updates related to these systems will also be provided
through the official social media channels of the National Center for the Rights of the Child (NCRC), so please refer to those as needed.
We apologize for the inconvenience.
We are doing our best to restore services and return to normal operations as soon as possible."
