Lee Kun-joo, who was waiting for his younger brother at a train station in France, was anxious, saying "What if he didn't come out?" but soon hugged each other with a bright smile. Lee Kun-cheol "Thank you for coming. It was almost 20 years ago," he said, welcoming his brother warmly.
The reason why the two were able to recognize each other at once was because they reunited once in Korea 18 years ago. However, there was a misunderstanding due to language and cultural differences, so we lost contact. Lee Kun-chul was glad to see his brother in person. I'm glad to see you again because we're brothers."
Lee Kun-joo brought food such as kimchi and snacks from Korea and even prepared 'Ko Mo-pyo's Kimchi Stew' for his younger brother and served him a Korean dinner.

There's nothing happier than this"I valued my time with my younger brother.
At the end of the broadcast, his younger brother expressed his curiosity about his parents, saying, `Why am I the only one who was sent for adoption?,' and Lee Kun-joo raised expectations by bringing up the truth of adoption for the first time, saying, `I didn't know, but my brother is.'
