During WW2, my great grandparents who are Japanese lived in Seoul, Korea during the Japanese occupation as a school teacher. He lived in a house there. After the war was over, he and his family had to flee or be killed. There was no time to pack. He hid the family scroll wich had our family history going back thousands of years on it and our family samurai sword in the house. He hoped to get it after the war settles down. He returned several months later but the new owner of the house told him to "get lost". Anyways, the scroll is very important to our family. Several family members have tried to go back but with no success. The last time someone went back she couldn't find it because they changed the cities layout with new construction. We don't even know if it still exists. We do have the old address. My question is who can I ask for help? Does Korea have a law there similar to U.S. warrant laws so we can search the home for our scroll? What about finding the location?
