TAIPEI (Taiwan News) – A 28-year-old Taiwanese man who had never known he was an adopted child until he was 20 years old finally reunited with his biological mother on Jan. 28, Central News Agency reported on Jan. 31.
Liu Shi-zhong (劉士忠), who is in the food service industry, found out that he was an adopted child when he went to a household registry office to apply for a copy of his family’s household registration transcript for a matter related to military service, according to CNA.
After learning the secret that had been purposely kept from his knowledge for so long, Liu began to ask himself, “Was it my own fault, or did my parents hate me? If not, why did they abandon me by putting me in an orphanage?”
But Liu had kept his suspicions to himself all these years, because his adopted parents had treated him as their biological son, and he was afraid of hurting them if he asked them any questions about the matter, CNA reported. [FULL STORY]
