On the broadcast of TV CHOSUN's variety show "Dad and I" on the 4th, the family history of Jeon Soo-kyung and her father was revealed. In the episode, Jeon Soo-kyung returned home after dining out with her father and took out the family album. The two reminisced over the photos in the album, recalling memories from Jeon Soo-kyung's childhood, school days, and university graduation.
Jeon Soo-kyung said, "When I was young, I actually thought it was just my older brother and me. Around elementary school, while looking through the family photo album, I saw pictures of my older brothers from long ago. That's when my mother told me the story behind it." She expressed curiosity about her past and asked about her father's feelings. Jeon Soo-kyung confessed, "My father was always cheerful, but when he had to let his children go, his heart must have broken. I wondered how he felt then and how he overcame it."
Jeon Soo-kyung's father recalled the story of his eldest son who passed away in an accident. He explained, "He was about 11 or 12 years old, having lunch when his son's friend came over. They said they were going swimming and catching loaches, so they left in the middle of the meal. I thought they knew what they were doing, but it had only been about an hour when he fell into a crater by the riverside, formed by a bomb during the Korean War." He added, "I just ran in and brought the body out, but it was no use to beat the ground or anything like that."
Jeon Soo-kyung asked her father about the second son. She cautiously inquired, "I know how the eldest brother passed away, but I don't know about the second brother." Her father revealed, "The second had encephalitis. We never even thought about mosquitoes. Encephalitis was epidemic at that time. Who would have thought it would take a life?" Jeon Soo-kyung asked, "Did you notice he was sick at home and then go to the hospital?" Her father replied, "Your mother carried him and came back and forth to me. We went to the hospital, but it was no use. It was heartbreaking."
Jeon Soo-kyung's father shared that the second son also passed away. He said, "Back then, why were there so many illnesses? The second son eventually passed away from encephalitis. In the end, you just leave it to the doctors. Your mother ran around a lot. Still, we couldn't prevent life and death. It's hard to believe." He continued, "I resented the world and thought about our fate, but beating the ground was useless. We spent our days going through such trials. Over time, it became memories, and when the topic comes up these days, the past comes to mind anew. I try to live without dwelling on old memories."
This episode deeply moved viewers with the sincere conversation between Jeon Soo-kyung and her father. The story, which captures the family's pain and the process of healing, gave viewers much to reflect on. The story of Jeon Soo-kyung and her father showed the bond between family members and the process of overcoming wounds, leaving a strong impression on the audience.
