Question Birth Father and I are lost in translation!

My Korean Birth Father contacted me 4 years ago and we are still having difficulty communicating since he does not understand much english and I do not understand any Korean. He has a translation service but I need to call collect (which I have never done - I'm sure it's an ungodly cost). I feel terrible since he has to be the one always calling. I've attempted to track down any interpretation services but to no avail... Does anyone have any suggestions?

I am in the US Military stationed in Korea. If I can help, send me an email and I will help anyway I can.

i know what you mean

i found my mother last summer. i moved out to korea-- adoptee discrimmination is crazy, unbelievable, and i still can't speak a word to her except, "this tastes good!"
you don't know anybody in the states that speaks korean?
if you were adopted through holt international, they might be able to help you.
