Brothers Home welfare centre was a center for homeless boys located in Busan, South Korea. It was in operation from 1976 to 1987. The owner Park In-geun was sentenced for embezzlement after a difficult investigation where strong political powers tied to the owner tried to prevent the investigation.

The idea was to get children off the streets so the country looked more fine because the Olympic Games should be held there in 1988.

Survivors of the facility speak of beatings, force labor, illegal imprisonment and the deaths of some of children detained at the facility.

It could not have been fun to be there as a child.
