26 year old long lost twins, reunite on the internet

Even though it sounds too ‘Disney’ to be true, two 26-year-old twin sisters who were separated at birth accidentally found each other on the internet.  Identical twins, Anais Bordier and Samantha Futerman were adopted from South Korea and weren’t aware of each other’s existence until Bordier saw a video of her twin on You Tube, a couple of year ago.

Bordier later found out that both of them shared their birth date and place of origin. "I stalk her a little bit more, learn that she was actually born in the same port city in Korea, and yes, started looking through all her pictures," she told CNN. She later sent Futerman a friend request on Facebook to connect with her.

After both got in touch with each other, they started talking on skype and discovered that despite having lived apart for their entire lives, they had a lot in common. They both hate cooked carrots; wear their hair the same way, even love to wear the same colour of nail paint. A DNA test, later, confirmed their bond.

Futerman said: "We were 25 at the time, and it's like that quarter-life crisis thing when you think it's all downhill… I have to buy my health insurance. I'm getting kicked off my parents' (plan). There's nothing good any more, and then it teaches you that anything's possible."

Their parents’ reveal that they were all unaware of the fact their daughters had a twin, and are now as ecstatic as the girls. Both Futerman and Bordier have bonded really well and are currently working on a book that chronicles their journey called, "Separated @ Birth: A True Love Story of Twin Sisters Reunited."

Having found the joy of reuniting with long lost family, they have now teamed up with Futerman's friend and fellow actress Jenna Ushkowitz, who stars in an American show, called, Glee and is also a Korean-American adoptee, for a foundation called ‘Kindred.’ The foundation helps adoptees based worldwide to reunite with their families and to help them with any other issues they might encounter.
