“Three years ago today, I felt a singular pain at the news of the death of @chadwickboseman. The confusion was so deep that it took me months to trust the feeling of joy again. This is a photo I took. filmed at the airport when we arrived in South Korea in 2018. We had just learned how to make a baby’s heart with our fingers. Here, Chadwick added his suave touch. We spent 72 glorious hours there, and the memory fills me with so much joy“, wrote the young lady in the caption of a black and white photo of the actor smiling in an airport in Korea, taken in 2018.
