Famous Singer Kim Insoon had a teary reunion with army veteran Ronald Lewis 40 years after they met when he was stationed to serve in Korea. He and his friends had befriended Insoon as a teenager. When they saw the racism she faced as a bi-racial Korean, they took her under their wings, and would even buy her food. She sought him out and finally found him so she could let him know that she was doing well now.

The "article" was written by me, combining info from two sites. I thought the video was really touching and how she found him was also amazing. It's really great that he and his friends were able to touch someone like that without expecting anything in return, and that they were able to make such a difference in her life.

Whoops sorry. I never remembered reading it, and it suddenly popped up on facebook. The video I posted seemed as if it was recently uploaded too, so I posted it. ^^;;

Old story is old BUT it's so damn endearing I think a yearly reminder of how amazing some human beings can be is much needed in this day and age, so good on you OP. :D/
