A South Korean documentary called Meeting You broadcast the reunion of a mother and an avatar of her daughter, who died in 2016 at the age of seven from an illness. Jang Ji-sung, the mother of four, wore a VR headset and gloves that allowed her to see, hear and touch the digitized version of her daughter. Jang was filmed in front of a green screen and formed her hands as though she was holding the girl's face.

The documentary aims to reunite sad relatives with lost family members. The two spent some time in a digitized park. The girl interacted with her mother, and told her that she misses her. The mother grew emotional and replied, "I miss you, too." The girl finally tells her mother that she is tired and falls asleep.

During the filming, Jang's husband and one of her other children watched from the audience and were also brought to tears. "Maybe it’s a real paradise," Jang said. "I met Nayeon (her daughter), who called me with a smile, for a very short time, but it’s a very happy time. I think I’ve had the dream I’ve always wanted."

Dr. Blay Whitby, an expert from the University of Sussex, said that the show raised some concern. He said the VR aspect of reuniting with a dead loved one was new ground. "We just don't know the psychological effects of being reunited with someone in this way," he said.
