《We are family. 》
“Wow….”
The production crew watched with bated breath as he tried to have a conversation and his emotions became stronger. Yoo Eun-ho’s voice was unusually different, and Yoo Yeon-seo, who needed to think, went into the house. Then the production crew exhaled.
“I feel like I’ve been told a huge secret…”
“I guess.”
“You know where you shouldn’t talk about it, right?”
“of course.”
While the production crew was buzzing, Lee Jae-hak also rubbed his chin in surprise.
‘That was real?’
Since the day Lee Hee-seo suddenly died, there have been many speculations and information floating around on the Internet about what happened at the time of the incident. But hearing it from my own mouth was something else.
Even when his younger brother went inside first, Eunho Yoo remained there and quietly looked at the flames. I have no idea what he’s thinking just by looking at his face.
“Why not get an interview now?”
“of course.”
Lee Jae-hak immediately pointed the camera at Yoo Eun-ho and blocked the production crew from attempting to conduct a personal interview.
And the next morning, the production crew sat in front of the monitor, excited to see how the brothers would resolve the misunderstanding.
They were the creators and leading viewers of the program. It was exciting to get a glimpse of other people’s gossip and hidden secrets. Especially if it happens to the famous actor Yoo Yeon-seo, the owner family of Joosung, a representative group in Korea.
“Sky high? “Who was it?”
“Among the second-generation idols, there’s that one… right?”
“Were there just one or two people who debuted at that time? “Let’s search.”
He disappeared so quietly that no one remembered him. But Lee Jae-hak knew.
‘If it’s Choi Byung-seong… that’s him, right? ‘I got into an argument with Yoo Yeon-seo and got out.’
Lee Jae-hak thoroughly researched the back story about Yoo Yeon-seo. There were many ears at the broadcasting station that could not be seen but could hear. Someone heard that Choi Byeong-seong provoked Yoo Yeon-seo, and it spread as a rumor.
‘Hey, your brother did that, right?’
I thought it was Chairman Yoo Geon-min, who loved his son very much, or Choi Yu-jin, who was a strong supporter… but you, too, are doing your best.
Jaehak Lee turned his head and looked at his teammates. Who is Sky High and who is Choi Byung-seong? The production crew who had been searching gradually became silent. Sky High’s contract was not renewed, the team was disbanded, and there was no news about Choi Byung-seong.
‘I will take the stories that come out while filming this program to my grave.’
‘You were a scary person.’
‘If you use your mouth incorrectly, you’ll look like Byung-seong Choi.’
Of course, they had no intention of leaking it somewhere, but the production team started to get scared in a different way. Jaehak Lee held back his laughter at that sight.
‘In my opinion, he’s a good enough brother…’
If it were me, would I have a relative who would do everything behind my back like that? I welcome you with open arms. Perhaps this was a burden for Yeonseo? Jaehak Lee focused on the monitor again.
“There’s more, but…”
Yoo Eun-ho looked at the cameras and microphones installed everywhere. I don’t think it would be a good idea to talk any more than this.
“I’m talking because you asked me to talk.”
“No…”
Still, Yu Yeon-seo, who was preparing brunch because she thought we should eat together, froze while holding the spatula.
“The eggs are fried.”
“uh? “Uh…”
After roughly finishing, Yoo Yeon-seo sat down at the table and looked blankly into space. No, they are people I was planning to repay someday, but is it my brother’s fault that I couldn’t even try? He frowned.
“I know what you’re thinking.”
Yu Eun-ho sat outside for a while, looking at the fireworks and thinking.
“Do you think I’m holding back too much?”
“that’s right.”
Yeon-seo nodded. I wanted to return this discrepancy of protecting, hiding, and enduring only one side to its original state.
“Maybe you didn’t do it out of hope for protection, but you created the debt on your own.”
Yoo Eun-ho felt responsible for seven-year-old Yoo Yeon-seo being shut down. Eunho Yoo admitted it.
“There was something my mom kept saying when she was alive. “Always take good care of you.”
“Was it like that?”
“Has that remained a burden? “Actually, I don’t know either.”
There was something that Yoo Eun-ho, the vice chairman of the Joosung Group, a genius and a cyborg to his friends, did not know. I never felt that Lee Hee-seo’s request was a burden because I thought it was natural, but it is probably true that it was a burden.
“I don’t know if you’re okay after the incident, but maybe I haven’t gotten over it yet.”
Even before I realized my mother’s death, my younger brother did something I couldn’t understand. I was quite shocked by that. So, he may be overreacting to his younger sibling’s problems. I thought it was best to cover it up for now for fear of getting hurt again.
“But this is how I feel comfortable.”
The incident was concluded well and there was no need for anything that had gone wrong to return to its original place. In Yoo Yeon-seo’s opinion, being overprotective, which may have been abnormal, was already a habit for Yoo Eun-ho. There wasn’t anything that was very difficult.
“I wanted you to tell me what you couldn’t say because you were afraid your parents would worry. “Because I want to help.”
“…….”
“But I was too tired at the time, so I didn’t listen to you properly.”
“Okay, that’s enough. Because I received an apology from the hospital. “Besides, I also made a fuss about something that didn’t make sense.”
You don’t have to accept everything just because you’re an older brother, but I admitted that it was unreasonable to hold on to him because I was desperate at the time.
They finished their meal, which had cooled down a little while talking. And even though no one told us to, we got up and cleaned up at the same time.
“Even if complex issues are solved, there will be some things that are not completely resolved.”
While standing side by side, looking out the window and washing dishes, Yoo Eun-ho said the same thing that Yeon-seo was thinking.
This is what I felt as I looked back on the past after the case was resolved. If Yoo Eun-ho felt responsible, Yoo Yeon-seo felt guilty. So I wanted to somehow return this to its normal form.
“But it’s okay to leave it like that.”
That may not necessarily be something that needs to be solved.
Eunho Yoo knew why his younger brother said that yesterday. Perhaps he wants to make up for the past time he suffered because of him, so he asks me to confess my feelings.
But Yoo Eun-ho was really good. My younger brother, who now has the leisure to look after the people close to him, will no longer have to worry, so he is fine.
Yeon-seo sighed softly. What is the general form? What does normal mean? Wouldn’t it be wrong to fit it into strange standards?
There were a lot of things we tolerated and kept secret from each other, and there seemed to be a lot of things we secretly suppressed, so I wanted to start a fight.
‘But that’s okay, so what more can I say?’
However, personal values and beliefs cannot be touched. They say it’s comfortable and familiar, so how could I change anything more? Yu Yeon-seo decided to leave it alone without thinking much about it.
“It was really nice of you to accept my foolishness. We are family. That’s what family is all about. “Becoming each other’s protectors.”
There is nothing that can be taken for granted when it comes to family, but Yu Eun-ho was taken for granted. Probably the same goes for your parents.
However, Yoo Yeon-seo remembers that his childhood memories are fleeting and that everyone was worried that he would do something wrong. As I came to my senses later, I started to notice.
The same was true of his other self. I have never had a family, so I can’t even imagine it, but I felt out of place in this situation, and people called this out of place a sacrifice.
[What would you like to do if you lived in a world before destruction?]
[Run away!]
Yu Yeon-seo found the meaning of sacrifice difficult. But I’ve come to the realization that sometimes it’s better to just accept what you don’t understand rather than trying to understand it.
“Is everything really okay?”
“It was annoying sometimes. I am also human. “I thought about grabbing this.”
The brothers burst out laughing at the same time.
“Shouldn’t you have done that?”
“I know.”
It was too big to squeeze. I’m not a younger brother who can be held in peace. Yoo Eun-ho looked at Yoo Yeon-seo, whose body was comfortably relaxed.
“It’s just… it’s natural for me to protect you. “Like you closed the door then.”
Yu Eun-ho wiped the moisture from his hands and lightly tapped his younger brother’s shoulder. Yu Yeon-seo looked at the hand gesture blankly. Is this what family is like?
“…Don’t you think it’s too much?”
But you’ve crossed the line by taking away my work. No, I didn’t even ask for it, so what if everything is handled behind my back?
“Was it a little like that?”
“It did.”
Soft laughter broke out again.
“Okay, I’ll try to control myself. Talk to you before you commit. it’s okay?”
“good.”
Talk before you commit? So you’re saying there’s something I’m going to do again? The brothers started talking again, not noticing that the expressions of the production crew, who had been listening with bated breath, had hardened.
“No, no. “Just let me handle it.”
Yoo Yeon-seo, who almost passed over, hurriedly added.
“I told you everything. “You probably have something to say to me too, right?”
Yoo Yeon-seo suddenly remembered what Baek Seo-jun had said. I’m not talking about it. That might mean talking about it.
“good. “I’ll tell you everything now, without hiding anything. Shall I also tell you the color of my underwear?”
“That’s a bit much.”
Yoo Eun-ho rarely got irritated by Yoo Yeon-seo’s prank.
Is it because I don’t like it when people talk about something serious and then try to get away with joking around, or is it because I’m sick of them sharing information I don’t really want to know? Probably both.
“…It’s the same as just closing the door.”
If Yoo Eun-ho was feeling responsible, Yoo Yeon-seo was feeling guilty. No longer did he blame himself for his mother’s death. But it is true that I caused damage to my entire family because I was weak.
“It’s my personal problem.”
“It’s not a personal matter.”
Lee Hee-seo was also Yoo Eun-ho’s biological mother. However, the personal problem my younger brother talks about is illusions and auditory hallucinations. Eunho Yoo asked cautiously, as he would not force himself to take on something he could not handle.
“You should have gone to the hospital.”
“If I go to the hospital, what will my overprotective family do? Are you trying to take away my freedom?”
Probably the grandfather of those days… It’s quite possible. Moreover, Yoo Eun-ho kept his mouth shut because he remembered the scene in ‘The Yoo Family’ where Yoo Yeon-seo consulted with Yoon Ho-young.
“I didn’t like worrying about this or that. “I’m not a child. How long do I have to take care of it?”
“You’re the kid.”
“what?”
“You’re four years younger than me, so what’s your baby?”
And I believe you said you will speak without hiding anything from now on. I guess he didn’t like being treated like a kid, but Yoo Eun-ho joked with a serious face.
“You give up. “The child should be quiet like a child.”
“Haa… How come there are no normal people in this family?”
Yoo Yeon-seo covered her face with one hand.
***
The brothers strangely guessed what the other was talking about even if they left out the subject, and after a serious conversation that left the production crew watching unable to understand, the atmosphere returned to normal.
After that, the vacation on the island was peaceful. Sometimes I had the caretaker help me enjoy marine leisure sports, and sometimes I just lay on the bed.
“Does he look good?”
When they returned to Korea and headed to the car, a friendly face was waving.
“Looking at your expression, it looks like you ended the conversation well?”
“What’s going on here?”
“You wouldn’t know it if you saw it? I came out to meet you. “I am a guest on this program from today.”
Baek Seo-jun took off his sunglasses with a cocky expression. He seems to be elated because of the car leaning behind him. He looked at Yoo Yeon-seo and smiled.
“Did you like your car?”
“Did you just lend me this car?”
Jaehak Lee whispered next to him. Yoo Yeon-seo found Baek Seo-jun’s appearance funny and nodded.
I was going to pick him up and asked if I could use a car, so I told him to use any car, but he drove the most expensive car there to see if he had any eyes on me. But I don’t really care. Because Baek Seo-jun is also a trustworthy person.
“When will I ever drive a car like this?”
“What about our luggage?”
“The production team will take care of it.”
“Hey.”
Baek Seo-jun skillfully avoided Yoo Yeon-seo’s light kick. When Yoo Yeon-seo put her hand on the passenger seat, Baek Seo-jun slapped her hand.
“Sseup’s youngest child ride in the back.”
“what?”
“okay. How can I surpass my older brothers?”
“brother?”
And Yoo Eun-ho quickly climbed into the passenger seat. A smile spread across the lips of Yoo Yeon-seo, who was sitting in the back seat as if being pushed around. Being treated like a child…isn’t that bad.
