A young man who went to Sichuan to find his biological parents, attracted more than 100 couples, curious to see if he was their missing son.

Yang Gang of Xuzhou, Jiangsu province, was told by his foster father just before his death two years ago, that he was adopted in 1990. The father did not know Yang's exact age but guessed he was about 2 years old at the time.

From then on, Yang started to look for his own parents and recently went to Leshan after some neighbors told him it was his hometown.

Thirteen sets of parents took a DNA test to see if they were Yang's parents but he's had no luck so far.
