hundreds of unwanted babies are abandoned on the streets of seoul, south korea, every year. many of them don't survive, but ¹. jong-rak lee of jesus-loving union church has set up a way for saving some of these unwanted babies. outside his church in seoul a sign says "place to leave babies."

在韩国首尔，每年都有几百名弃婴被遗弃街头。弃婴的生存率较低，而“主爱共同体教会”牧师李钟落为救助弃婴想出了新办法。李牧师在教堂外放置了“弃婴收容箱”，上面写着“弃婴收留处”。

rev. lee first introduced the idea of the baby box in korea as a temporary solution to keep abandoned babies alive.
a "baby box" is there with a thick towel covering the bottom, and lights and heating to keep a baby comfortable. a bell rings when someone puts a baby in the box. then a helper comes to immediately move the baby inside. this past year, six infants and small children were rescued at lee's church.

many of them are ² or mentally handicapped, or babies from unmarried mothers who can't care for their children.

"his ³ is not shaped right," lee ⁴ out about one child. "this note says that, 'he has this handicap（障碍） , i am so sorry, but i am not able to raise this baby. so i put him safely in the baby box of jesus-loving union church."

official reports say about 600 infants or young children are abandoned in the streets every year, but the number is probably higher. only about 20 percent of abandoned infants or children are rescued and placed temporarily in ⁵ protection centers.

and the numbers of infant deaths and abandoned children are bound to get worse as the rate of children born to single mothers increases.

government efforts have not kept up with the need, which is why ⁶ professionals developed the baby box.

"obviously it's best for the parents themselves to raise their children, but when the country does not perform its function in this situation, it is important to save the lives of babies first," obstetrician（产科医师） dr. sang-duk sim said.

rev. lee first introduced the idea of the baby box in korea as a temporary solution to keep abandoned babies alive.

"there is no reason for the baby box to exist if the government takes care of the children's safety, and making them happy," he said.

"[the] baby box should go, but right now there is only inaction（不活动，迟钝） and lack of concern."
