If a parent had the chance to meet their deceased child through virtual reality, would they?
A tearful "reunion" between a mother and a virtual recreation of her daughter, who died at the age of 7 in 2016, has brought an outpouring of emotional reactions since the documentary "Meeting You" was aired on Feb. 6.
While some people praise the "creative" use of the new technology, others criticize it for being "emotionally manipulative."
In a recent interview with The Korea Times, Kim Jong-woo said he was glad his show opened up such dialogue.
