Cares for Dong-Hoon

"You idiot, how can I not be emotional. You Shut up and do not disturb our moment." she hit his head turning back to Dong-Hoon while both Ji-Hoon and Dong Hoon laughed looking at the mother-son duo bickering.

Dong Hoon went to Min-Hoon and gave him a hug and he hugged him back while patting his back. "Return as a skilled person, I want my eldest son to be the cause of my pride." Min-Hoon said, saying his love out in his own way.

Tae-Hoon rolled his eyes at his father's words. 'He cannot even say some sweet words to his son when he is going away from him for the first time.' he thought to himself stretching the left corner of his upper lip.

Dong-Hoon also hugged his brothers, saying goodbye, he went towards the car, putting his luggage in the car's trunk then settling himself in the passenger seat as the driver started the engine. Dong-Hoon waved one last time to his family and they waved back standing under the porch.

Jung-Nan hugged Ji-Hoon in sadness, "Yes, now that Dong-Hoon is gone Ji-Hoon will be your favorite son, right?" Tae-Hoon said trying to lift up his mother's mood yet again.

"You rascal, come here." his mother was about to grab his ear but he ran away being chased by his mother. Ji-Hoon just smiled seeing his mother and then turned his face towards his father who was still looking in the direction of the vanishing car. He found his father’s expressions somewhat sad and grim. All those years he had spent being the closest one to Min-Hoon, yet he could not understand him still.

...

Shim Mansion, Main Bedroom: 

"Jung-Nan, you are looking very sad." Min-Hoon said looking at the sad and upset face of his wife. 

"You know why, then what's the use of asking." she said pursing her lips afterward and crossing her arms over her chest.  

"Jung-Nan, we have already discussed this, you know I cannot let my son be a chef. In this patronage society, anyone can take advantage of him. Only the mind of a businessman can understand what is bad and what is good for them. Children do not understand and comprehend me, but at least I do not want you to act like this like as I have done something cruel and utterly unreasonable to my own child" he said as his face was not stern like it was in front of his sons. 

He knew about Dong-Hoon's dream of being a chef, but he could not allow him to choose a profession that might lead him to be eaten up by others. He wanted his son to be a great businessman, so no one would be able to take advantage of his lackings. In this business circle, none of them were allowed to be weak.

"I perfectly understand you, but it is just a mother's heart which is sad." she said sulking a bit and fidgeting her fingers. 

Min-Hoon smiled and hugged his wife. "I wish we had a daughter; she would have somewhat overcome your sadness in this situation." he said to his wife making her chuckle. 

"Are three of them not enough? the youngest one is such a trouble and one more would have made me a mental patient by now." both husband and wife laughed at the thought of having someone naughtier than Tae-Hoon in the house. 

... 

"All three of us will be together only after three years when you'll be back from the states as well." Tae-Hoon said to Ji-Hoon, smiling sadly. 

"Well, what can I say. I already miss him." Ji-Hoon sighed shaking his head. It was the first time that three of them were separated like this. 

... 

After a year: 

"You idiots, it is Dong-Hoon. Come here and stop bickering over a keychain." Jung-Nan scolded her sons who were fighting over a wooden keychain. 

Dong-Hoon laughed at his brothers through the video call, "They have not grown a bit." he said while laughing hard and looking at him Jung-Nan smiled as well. 

"Of course, my most sane and amazing son is away from me, these two acts like girls whenever you send something." she said shaking her head and tutting a bit. 

"Hey big bro, I want this keychain you sent, but he is acting like he is the youngest in the house." Tae-Hoon said rushing to his mother’s left side. 

Ji-Hoon came running behind him. "He sent that for me, you know I like getting wood collections and you also took the cologne he sent. How can you take both of the things? You have been taking all of my things since the day you have been born." Ji-Hoon said sitting on the other side of his mother on the sofa. 

"How are you both, hmm." Dong-Hoon asked still laughing at them. 

"I was fine until my big brother started to act like he is the younger one." Tae-Hoon said laughing as well as Ji-Hoon just scoffed, rolling his eyes. Their mother was just shaking her head looking at both of them making chaos in her peaceful household.

"Ji-Hoon you will be here in a week anyways, leave it." Dong-Hoon said trying to shush them.

"Ok, if you promise to welcome me with your delicious Kimbap (A Korean Dish/Snack)." Ji-Hoon said eyeing Tae-Hoon trying to tease him. 

"Yes, yes anything for you, just come here soon." Dong-Hoon said smiling at him, he was excited to meet Ji-Hoon face to face after a whole year. 

"It is not fair." Tae-Hoon rolled his eyes. "You are not fair either." Ji-Hoon said sticking his tongue out. 

"Shut up you both. You say, Dong-Hoon, you have called after a long time." Jung-Nan accosted Dong-Hoon. 

"Nothing special, I have been just busy a lot. After all, I am doing an internship in the world's biggest hotel." he said smiling at his mother, wanted her to be proud of her eldest son. 

"I am very proud of you and so is your father. He does not show much but he really cares about you guys, especially about you Dong-Hoon." she said giving him a sad smile.
