Anyway to find lost family possibly still in Korea?

​

My Great Uncle Larry had a wife in Korea(?) whom he seemed to love and cherish deeply. They had a child together, but he was not permitted to bring either of them back to the United States with him. I simply want to try to locate her child...I do not expect that she herself is still alive today. Thank you so much for any and all help!!

It would mean a great amount to my family.

UPDATE: I commented this but want everyone to see it:

I understand that abandonment of Korean women back then, and probably even now with American troops still stationed over there, is a problem and it disgusting. If I could have taken a picture of every single piece he kept from them, Id be able to show you that wasn't the case in his situation. Unfortunately I didn't, and because of that I can't prove to you he wasn't a POS. But he didn't abandon them and he kept everything from them, and died when he got home. I just want to try and help find our lost family is all.

I have no intention on defending anyone abandoning their family. Especially not like this. I apologize for not being a little more clear. I'm the only one in my family learning about this, everyone else knew. I'm the one who took the initiative to find them. I personally wish the rest of my family would have tried sooner, as it was never a family secret or anything. But I can only do what I can now. Thanks guys.
