MPR News presents North Star Journey Live
Mistaken: Minnesota’s Korean adoptees grapple with confessed systemic corruption
This event is SOLD OUT.
About the Event
Earlier this year, in a stunning revelation, South Korea’s government admitted that widespread corruption had tainted hundreds of thousands of adoptions from its country. Babies who were thought to be orphaned had living parents. Some children were trafficked. Paperwork was falsified. Records were destroyed.
Korean adoptees worldwide were left reeling, including here in Minnesota, home to the largest population of Korean adoptees in the U.S. Many had already wrestled with questions of identity and racial and cultural belonging. Now even the small bits of information they had about their past could no longer be trusted.
How are Korean adoptees who call Minnesota home responding to this foundational earthquake? In November, MPR News’ North Star Journey Live will host a gathering of adult adoptees who are deeply invested in the search for truth about their origin stories.
The Host
Kaomi Lee is the greater Minnesota reporter for Almanac, Twin Cities PBS’ weekly newsmagazine show. She travels around the state to tell stories about life outside the Twin Cities, to better connect all Minnesotans with each other. Lee was born in South Korea and adopted to Minnesota as a young child. In 2016, she returned as a Fulbright senior scholar where she interviewed adult adoptees who had returned to Korea to live.

Break The Bubble
“So wait, this is a singles event, right? Or a professional networking thing?”
Nope. Break the Bubble is for making friends, pure and simple. You can leave the pick-up lines and elevator speeches at home. Refreshing, isn't it?
“What's the format?”
Show up
Put on a name tag
Introduce yourself to someone new
“I heard these events have themes. What’s up with that?”
Yep. Our events have themes because most of us need a little help kickstarting conversations with people we don't know. Question to be announced closer to the event... we want to keep you guessing!
“Is this just a Millennials thing?”
Nope! Our events are open to anyone over 21.
Legend Kolsch Release and Mac & Cheese Potluck
There is no better way to honor our dear friend, Tom Berg, than by pairing our Legend Kolsch Release with a Mac & Cheese Potluck.
Legend Kolsch is a tribute beer to Tom Berg. Tom was a LEGEND to all who met him, not only for his warmth but for his love of the beer community. Kolsch was the last beer style he couldn’t stop talking about making. Tom also loved mac & cheese. So much so, he even had an Instagram account @mpls_mac dedicated to it.
Please feel free to join us Sunday, August 3rd from 2-4 pm, whether to celebrate Kolsch, mac & cheese, Tom Berg, or all of the above.
Potluck: You're invited to bring your mac & cheese dish, share with others, and gather amongst friends or make new ones. We'll provide table space and a place to plug in if you need. Don't forget to bring a serving spoon!
