He was able to “reconnect” with his deceased wife through a virtual reality program. Some of her children were also able to see her and their emotional reactions were truly heartbreaking.
“He would kiss her from time to time when working, when eating, or when watching TV,” the daughter recalled.” one of the daughters said in an interview on the MBC network. “Even when my mother was sick and lost her hair, my father would say that she was pretty and carried her around, ” she continued.
According to the Korean broadcast company, six months went into organizing this emotional moment. The staff had to recreate numerous interaction gestures and Kim’s wife’s voice by integrating an actor’s vocals and editing her resonance to sound as close to that of Kim’s wife as possible.
