The oldest participant in the Monday event is the 101-year-old Baik Sung-kyu from the ROK.
Baik, who was to meet his daughter-in-law and granddaughter, said he had packed clothes, underwear, 30 pairs of shoes, toothbrushes and toothpaste as gifts.
"I also brought 20 stainless spoons," he added. "I bought everything because it's my last time."
Yonhap news agency said as many participants are elderly, reunions between parents and sons and daughters are rare. Most cases are meetings among cousins, nieces or nephews.
