In 'Dad and Me,' Lee Geon-joo and his biological brother Geon-cheol, who was adopted to France, continued their deep emotional journey after meeting for the first time in 18 years. After a long wait, the brothers confirmed their feelings for each other.
On the 17th, they shed hot tears during the broadcast of TV Chosun's 'Dad and Me.'
That day, Lee Geon-joo decided to visit his brother's adoptive parents' house together. Remembering 18 years ago, the brothers headed to their adoptive parents' house. The moment they opened the door after a long time, Lee Geon-joo couldn't hide his overwhelming emotions, saying, "Everything feels like a dream. I was so happy to see you." He then expressed his deep gratitude, saying, "I'm sorry for coming late, and thank you for raising our Geon-cheol well."
The house was filled with traces of love cultivated over the years, and the adoptive parents shared their heartfelt feelings, saying, "I was relieved and happy that Geon-joo returned. I wanted the two to meet again. We will show what it means to be family."
That day, Lee Geon-joo bowed his head again and said, "I wonder why our brothers couldn't be ordinary," shedding tears. He shared his painful thoughts, stating, "If we had been happy together as children, we would have been less lonely... I couldn't be there at the moments when I needed you the most."
In response, his brother said, "My wounds disappeared after you returned. The fact that I'm not alone is so significant," and confessed, "I'm not lonely anymore. I love you, Hyung." Lee Geon-joo burst into tears at his brother's unexpected confession in Korean. In response to Lee Geon-joo's heartfelt reply, "I love you too," they opened their hearts to each other for the first time. Lee Geon-joo expressed that the words "I love you, Hyung" heard in his awkward Korean would be a moment he would never forget, showing the strengthened brotherhood.
The journey of the brothers, which began in distant France, brought them together again through the language of sincerity. At the end of the time that had separated their fates, the sight of the brothers finally becoming one was heartwarming.
