'Sundoli' Lee Kun-joo confessed his heartbreaking family history with his brother 'French'. On this day, the national viewership of the broadcast rose to 3.0% (hereinafter referred to as Nielsen Korea, national standard), and the highest ratings per minute rose to 3.3%.
On TV CHOSUN 'Dad and Me', which aired on the 17th, actor and shaman Lee Kun-joo explained his family history to his younger brother Lee Kun-chul, who was adopted to France as soon as he was born. When Lee Kun-joo visited Korea 18 years ago, he found out about the existence of his younger brother, who grew up as a `French.' However, the two were misunderstood as language and culture differences at the time, and after losing contact, they reunited in France this time. About 18 years ago, Lee Kun-joo said, `I wanted to be a cool and proud brother, but I felt so sorry that I couldn't do it for you. I had a hard time not being able to contact youHe apologized to his younger brother, but Lee Kun-chul pressed him, saying, `I don't blame my brother.'
In addition, to Lee Kun-chul, who was curious about why he was adopted, Lee Kun-joo explained the situation of his family at the time. While raising three siblings alone, Lee Kun-joo's grandmother raised her son (Lee Kun-joo's father) with her grandchild. Around the time Lee Kun-joo's father was about to be discharged from the military, Lee Kun-joo's real mother found out that she was pregnant with Lee Kun-chul. However, the parents of the two brothers were already divorced. Eventually, his mother left Lee Kun-chul at his grandmother's house. The two aunts, who were teenagers, took care of Lee Kun-joo and Lee Kun-cheol on behalf of the working grandmother, but the grandmother decided to adopt Lee Kun-chul abroad in a situation where it was difficult to raise them together. Lee Kun-joo added "My grandmother was sorry for not being able to raise us together for the rest of her life."
In response, Lee Kun-chul said, `If it was a really difficult situation, I would have sent both of them for adoption, but I don't understand why only one person was sent for adoption. It was a huge hurt that I was the only one sent for adoption"I asked for answers to questions that have hurt me for more than 40 years. Lee Kun-joo, who burst into tears when he heard that it was his younger brother's wound, couldn't continue his words, and "I was left because I was born first…"So I'm sorry to Geon-cheol."
However, Lee Kun-cheol "Looking back, I grew up under good adoptive parents without any shortage, but my brother may not have enjoyed it. You must have had a hard time alone"On the contrary, he comforted his brother. After 40 years, Lee Kun-joo and Lee Kun-chul felt their love for each other and took a step toward becoming brothers who could rely on each other. In addition, Lee Kun-joo met with Lee Kun-chul's son 'Luka' and boasted the appearance of 'nephews'. When Lee Kun-joo saw his nephew, who he last saw at the age of 5, became an adult, he shed tears again and handed over gifts to his nephew. Lee Kun-joo couldn't hide her happiness at the date with her younger brother and nephew, who seemed like a dream, saying, `This is how my aunts feel when they buy me something.'
Meanwhile, Lee headed to a rural village in France to meet his adoptive parents, who raised his younger brother, Lee Kun-chul, without any shortage. Lee Kun-joo, who had visited here 18 years ago, was delighted with the still appearance of her adoptive parents and smiled. Lee Kun-joo said, `I wonder how my brother came to France"He wondered about the adoption period of his younger brother, who he didn't know. Then Lee Kun-chul's adoptive parents showed him an album in which they recorded notes like a diary, from photos to childhood photos, when he was at an adoption center in Korea. Looking at his younger brother's pictures, Lee Kun-joo said, "I was so thankful that Geon-cheol must have been happier and more loved than anyone else"I was moved. He also shed tears at the appearance of Lee Kun-chul, who looks so similar to him in the picture.
The two, who were together in France and looked into their respective times they spent separately, became a strong family enough to overshadow their time apart. Lee Kun-cheol "I used to feel lonely even if I wasn't alone, but now I'm not lonely anymore because I have an older brother. I love you!," he said, expressing his true feelings. Lee Kun-joo "I felt my brother enter my life perfectly. I've got my family in France. I looked back on the journey filled with my family. Lee Kun-joo finished her journey to find her family with her younger brother, Lee Kun-chul, looking forward to the future and expecting a new story to fill.
