Episode 170
* * *
“…Mother. Can I really see Yewon today?”
At Harin’s earnest voice, Attorney Seonwoo Yeong broke into a smile.
“Of course~ Our daughter wants to see her so badly. Mom pulled some strings~”
Both Mom and Dad ran around so hard their feet nearly caught fire, resolving every single issue surrounding Yewon…. So our daughter could see Yewon….
Seonwoo Yeong left out the rest of the details.
Children didn’t need to know all the complexities of the adult world!
“But…. Yewon seems to be in low spirits right now.”
Harin spoke in a dejected voice, her eyes cast downward.
And seeing her daughter like this, Seonwoo Yeong felt moved.
“Our daughter has grown so much, learning to empathize with and understand others’ feelings. You’ve really matured, our Harin.”
It was all thanks to having a wonderful friend like Yewon!
Seonwoo Yeong barely held back the urge to wipe away tears, gently stroking Harin’s head.
“Yewon will be fine. …Now she has plenty of dependable family by her side.”
“Do you think so…?”
“Of course. She has a wonderful friend like you. Yewon will be okay.”
Seonwoo Yeong said this with conviction, but truthfully, she was worried too.
Not long ago.
[Yewon really wants to see her friends]
[If Harin’s schedule permits, would it be possible for her to come play at our house?]
When Lee Doha sent this message, Seonwoo Yeong nearly jumped out of her seat.
Finally!
As the saying goes, sincerity moves heaven.
Thanks to her and Prosecutor Ryu Jinhyeok’s relentless efforts, Harin had become the friend Yewon sought out even in this difficult situation.
It was truly a touching moment.
And for good reason….
‘It’s a situation even adults struggle to handle.’
For a child who had just turned eight, it was all the more difficult.
‘If only her enrollment were a year later….’
To start Elementary School when the entire nation’s attention was focused on her.
Seonwoo Yeong furrowed her brow.
Yewon’s current situation was that burdensome and difficult.
[[Exclusive] ‘National Actor’ Director Yeon Taejung was idol Lee Doha’s biological father… A shocking family secret hidden for 25 years]
[“Blood doesn’t lie” Director Yeon Taejung and Lee Doha, ‘Celestial Bloodline’… South Korean entertainment industry in uproar]
[Child actress Yewon turns out to be ‘Director Yeon Taejung’s granddaughter’… Genius acting DNA spanning generations]
[Top director Yeon Taejung’s ‘most perfect scenario’ is his son Lee Doha?… Century’s secret revealed]
[HiOne statement: “Yewon is indeed Director Yeon Taejung’s granddaughter… We ask for your warm support” Official position]
The relationship between Director Yeon Taejung and Lee Doha was first revealed through articles.
The two officially held a press conference and publicly disclosed their relationship.
[Director Yeon Taejung: …First, I’d like to express my gratitude to all the members of the press who made time in your busy schedules. And I believe it’s only right that I directly explain to the public, who may have felt confused by the news surrounding me over the past few days, which is why I’ve arranged this opportunity.]
Seonwoo Yeong trembled as she watched the press conference live from home.
Even she herself was shaking like this—she couldn’t even imagine how nervous the two of them must be.
[Lee Doha: Hello, I’m Lee Doha from GLEET. As my father said, I am Director Yeon Taejung’s son. And….]
Despite having stood on stage thousands of times, even Lee Doha was visibly tense in this moment, his hands trembling.
[Lee Doha: Yewon is, as I’ve mentioned through broadcasts until now, my precious niece. At the same time, she is also Director Yeon Taejung’s granddaughter. To protect the bonds of family, and especially because we hope Yewon grows up normally and happily, we had no choice but to reveal this truth.]
The two of them had to spend over an hour explaining their family circumstances.
‘…If it had been just the two of them, they wouldn’t have laid everything bare like this….’
The reason these two, who valued privacy above all else, were now revealing everything without reservation was undoubtedly because of Yewon.
To ensure the child bore no labels or suspicions.
Their desperate struggle to protect their niece and granddaughter came through the camera with heartfelt sincerity.
Especially Director Yeon Taejung spoke with an earnestness and truthfulness unlike any other moment.
[Director Yeon Taejung: I will accept all criticism gracefully. It’s all my fault, so I earnestly ask that you refrain from speculative reporting to protect my son and granddaughter from harm.]
A true master actor is indeed a master actor.
Seonwoo Yeong marveled inwardly.
If all her clients possessed such tremendous persuasive power, her work would have been so much easier.
The public seemed to share similar sentiments.
Internet opinion was extraordinarily heated, but overall favorable toward all three.
Title: Absolutely shocking for real
By my standards, this is the most shocking moment in entertainment history
└Everyone understands even without a subject…
└Seriously, this is the top shock wow
Title: They skipped over dating announcements, marriage announcements, divorce announcements
And went straight to announcing a son
Insane
I’m a Yeon Taejung fan and I just
└???: Felt good so far? Let me hit you with everything at once
Title: What’s the Yeon Taejung fandom’s reaction?
The public is in total shock obviously, but since all three already had such good images, there aren’t really negative reactions
But I think the fandom reaction might be different
└The ladies have already put themselves in Lee Doha’s mother’s shoes and unified, it’s on a whole different level there
Everyone there is grinning from ear to ear saying they’ve got handsome sons and cute granddaughters lol
└They’re all just worried, asking how much our Taejung must have suffered in silence
People keep asking what they should do to support our son these days, like whether they still need to stream his music lol
└└└They’re truly different
Title: So what about GLEET’s fandom?
How is it?
└Anti-fans: Consistently anti
Fan-fans: Consistently fans
Fans: Lee Doha, sorry to bother you, but when is the next album coming out? Are you preparing well for Coachella? Please don’t get hurt.
Just everyday stuff
└└ Right, it’s just typical K-pop daily life
└Our Glow fans aren’t the type to make a fuss over something this minor
“You weaklings, we’ve even sent members who quit to jail, so this level of controversy doesn’t even make the cut.”
For us, the kids being late with the album is more of a controversy;;
Title: Both Taejung’s and Glow’s fandoms have insane firepower
Everyone just glosses over when people attack Taejung or GLEET
But if anyone dares to criticize Yewon, both fandoms unite and absolutely destroy them lol
└Ah, right now because of X’s auto-translation feature, it’s become a Tower of Babel and people worldwide are attacking together, telling Yewon “what are you doing, losers out, losers out”
└└ㅈㄴ I feel safeㅠㅠ Beating them up in n languages
└└└Worldwide X users: (((((Yewon))))))
└└└└Thanks to our Yewon, the next album is coming out rapidly, we gotta repay the favor
Just leave the kid alone—it’s ridiculous that only a few trolls don’t know what everyone else in the world already knows.
As public opinion gradually settled down,
Seonwoo Yeong began to feel anxious again.
‘…If it’s revealed that Yewon is from the Hyun Family… what kind of reaction will come then…? If that’s revealed to the public who’s already shocked enough….’
However, contrary to Seonwoo Yeong’s worries, neither Haion nor HiOne released any official statement.
Yewon’s biological father still remained officially undisclosed.
‘Could they be planning to keep it secret indefinitely…?’
* * *
“Yes. We’ve decided to keep it undisclosed.”
“!”
At Lee Doha’s words, Seonwoo Yeong’s eyes widened slightly.
So that’s what it was!
“May I ask the reason behind that decision…?”
At Seonwoo Yeong’s question, Lee Doha glanced toward the living room.
In the living room, Yewon, Harin, Jeongyun, Baek Yun, and Hyuk were laughing and playing together.
“It was Yewon’s and Yusong’s decision… in other words, my brother-in-law’s decision.”
Lee Doha recalled a conversation from not long ago.
* * *
‘…After discussing it with Yewon. We’ve decided not to reveal it right now.’
‘!’
At Yusong’s calm words, Lee Doha was taken aback.
He had thought Yusong would be eager to announce to the whole world right away that Yewon was his daughter.
‘I believe that what has already been revealed is burden enough for Yewon. The title of being the only third-generation member of the Hyun Family… would place far too much weight on her shoulders.’
Yusong’s expression seemed somewhat lighter.
‘From the moment it’s revealed, every action Yewon takes will affect the Haion Group. Conversely, every move the Haion Group makes will also affect Yewon. I simply don’t wish to impose such suffering on her. She doesn’t even want to inherit the Haion Group.’
‘…Are you certain about this?’
‘Yes. As long as Yewon is fine, I’m fine with anything.’
Yusong offered a faint smile.
‘My daughter still has plenty of time ahead of her. If I can be her shadow during that time… I’ll be satisfied with that.’
‘….’
Lee Doha nodded heavily at Yusong’s words.
He understood all too well that heart, which had thought of and decided everything solely for Yewon’s sake.
* * *
“…And that’s how it came to be.”
“Hmm. I see.”
Seonwoo Yeong nodded.
So she’d decided to just become a ‘strength-breathing-person’!
That’s actually more terrifying!
