A Healing Solution for Emotional Suffering
An extraordinary journey to discover inner peace, restore balance, and find tranquility amidst life's chaos. XR Meditation: Dimension offers visually immersive meditation, powered by cutting-edge extended reality (XR) technology—far from the traditional practice of closing one's eyes.
This experience was inspired by a deeply personal journey in the summer of 2021, as I bid farewell to my older sister. With this creation, I aim to plant seeds of healing for those facing the trials of life, offering 20 minutes of solace even to those battling illnesses like cancer.
To those seeking hope amidst pain, Dimension lights the path forward.
The Seed of Healing Born from Pain
For 11 years, I‘ve worked as a creative planner at an augmented reality (AR) technology company, merging creativity with innovation. Before that, I spent eight years in the art world as a curator, building bridges between people and art. While these two pillars—art and technology—have shaped my life, the foundation of my journey is rooted in a deeper story: one of pain and healing.
The Righteous Sun, XR Meditation ‘Dimension’ as a Ray of Healing
Caring for my sister felt like an endless journey. Carrying large bags to the hospital felt similar to leaving for a business trip—except for one key difference: my sister’s condition. She was battling cancer, unable to find a moment of comfort or rest. The disease and its treatments didn’t just cause her physical pain; they shook her entire being.
"Why is this pill coming out intact?" The sight of an undissolved pill in her diaper was a profound shock. It revealed how severely her body had deteriorated, unable to process even the simplest medications. She would constantly shift in discomfort, enduring immense pain, and all I could do was massage her stomach and listen to her strained breaths.

The Hand Before the Operating Room
After three rounds of chemotherapy, my sister was finally prepared for surgery. Despite the first operation, the cancer cells returned quickly, and a second surgery was scheduled. As she was wheeled into the operating room, she held my hand tightly and wouldn’t let go.
"I’ll be here, sis. Don’t worry."
Those were our last words to each other. Although the doctor assured us the surgery was a success, my sister’s strength never returned. Twenty-one days later, sepsis claimed her life.
A Mission Found in Pain
While caring for my sister, I often reflected on the love she had shown me throughout her life. Yet, I felt powerless to do much for her in return. After she passed, I was overwhelmed with regret. "If only I had done more, if only I had cared for her better."
But no amount of regret could reach her anymore.
Through this journey, I came to realize how essential it is to heal not only the body but also the heart. For cancer patients like my sister and their families, moments of peace and comfort are desperately needed. I made a decision: I would return the love my sister had given me to the world. I resolved to create moments—whether 10 or 20 minutes a day—where people in pain could forget their suffering and find a space to heal.
The time I spent caring for my sister was the most profound period of my life. It was not just a time of pain; it was a journey of learning how to love and discovering ways to share that love with the world. My sister left me with a purpose, and I intend to honor it.
The Beginning of XR Meditation: Dimension
And so, XR Meditation: Dimension was born. I create immersive healing experiences by combining technology and art. This content blends binaural beats, the wavelengths of colors, and soothing storytelling to provide a healing journey where peace can be found amidst pain. For approximately 20 minutes, users can wander through the world of Dimension, taking time to heal themselves.
My hope is that this experience brings comfort not only to cancer patients but also to their caregivers and anyone struggling with the stress of modern life.
Steps Toward the Future
I envision XR Meditation: Dimension as a tool that can help not only cancer patients but also families suffering from trauma, medical professionals, and even young people. South Korea holds the unfortunate record of having the highest youth suicide rate in the world.
My dream is for this content to become a tool for resilience, helping young people discover hope and strength. With more research and feedback, I aim to further develop this content and plant seeds of peace and healing in the lives of even more people.
In Closing
I am not a doctor or a scientist. I am an artist and a director, and above all, an ordinary person who has lost a beloved family member. Yet with the art and technology I have, I hope to be a small light for others.
If even for 10 minutes, someone can forget their pain and feel a sense of calm and comfort, then my mission will have been fulfilled.
Though my sister is no longer here, her love reach the entire world. I truly believe that. For those who need hope amidst pain, Dimension will light the path forward.
