Our home study was just approved and after we complete the Core Training now required by the Hague Convention, my husband and I will be eligible for a referral. We are on our agency's waiting list for a baby boy from Korea.
Please feel free to comment here or PM me. Thanks for all your help!

I am an adoptive mom, but our son was born in the U.S. My niece, however, was adopted from China and will be 8 in July. I also have a friend who adopted a daughter from Korea about 5 years ago. She went through the Pearl S. Buck agency in PA and had a great experience with them.
I'm afraid I can't give you any advice on the international process since I haven't experienced it firsthand, but I wanted to congratulate you and welcome you to the rollercoaster ride called adoption!
Best of luck to you and your husband.
