"Let's go home," an elderly couple holding hands.
This is the story of an elderly man with dementia who lost his way and safely reunited with his wife thanks to the police. Let's take a look.
It was a street in Jung-gu, Seoul, on September 17.
An elderly grandfather is seen sitting alone on a bench.
At around the same time, his wife, who had been searching everywhere for him, visited a police substation.
She filed a report stating, "My husband has dementia and has gone missing." Following the clues provided by the wife, police officers retraced the grandfather's steps.
In the process, the police discovered the grandfather sitting alone.
The officers kindly spoke to him to make sure he wasn't startled, checked on his condition, and carefully supported him as they escorted him to the substation.
When the elderly couple met again, the moment they looked into each other's eyes, overwhelmed with relief and joy, they were reportedly at a loss for words and grasped each other's hands tightly.
The couple expressed their gratitude to the police officers and finally left the substation without ever letting go of each other's hands.
Netizens who watched the video responded with comments such as, "Even if you forget all the memories in the world, there must be a face you can never forget," and "It brings tears to my eyes."
