This paper attempts to question taken-for-granted assumptions about the current situation of and discourse about “surrogacy” in Korea (though I prefer the term “pregnancy and birth (P&B) transactions” rather than “surrogacy” to examine the reality and theoretical issues). The first assumption relates to the statistics about Korea’s current rise in infertility that are used to emphasize the need for P&B transactions. The rise is not in the infertile population itself but in the population diagnosed with (“unexplained”) infertility who needs a purposive procedure in order to get a government subsidiary for IVF treatments. The second is the naturalist assumption of parenthood. The essential factor of contemporary parenthood is increasingly considered to be not blood-ties (“genetic parents”) but intention (“intended parents”). The last issue is the selective regulation of P&B transactions. Distinguishing between “altruistic” and “commercial” transactions is not only impossible but also undesirable. P&B transactions may seem odd and unfamiliar, but because they interlock with other, more familiar social realities, analysis of more than the technology itself is called for. The meaning of motherhood within gender norms, birth that is only perceived and given official recognition as a family relationship, children’s lack of rights ― only when we think together about these issues that Korean society faces today does it become possible to produce research about and realistic alternatives to P&B transactions.
