The Korean Civil Code, especially in its adoption system, mainly consists of family-centered provisions and some additional child-centered provisions in accordance with the worldwide tendency of adoption law to make children to be main body of rights. This dual type of adoption law makes it difficult to interpret the law consistently.Anyway, in Korea, until recent years, the majority of adoptions were made in respect of illegitimate children who were placed for adoption very shortly after birth. The "adopted" baby usually has been registration as a legitimate child, and current law and judicial precedent of the Supreme Court of Korea do not prohibit such registration.Such registration, though not illegal, was not for welfare of the child, but for the heritage of the position of house-master.Whatever the reason may be, the parents of the "adopted" legitimate child want to bring up their child like their own baby. But sometimes it becomes impossible to bring up their baby even as a adopted child by the judicial judgment he is not their legitimate son and should be handed upon the man who are opposed to adopt him.This study, bearing such issues talked before in consideration, is centered on the problem of legistration of full adoption.
