0001 Alive
The confused Li Junhan shook back to his home alone.
When I opened the fridge, it was empty.
It's just, hungry.
Li Junhan, who was a little godless, lay on the sofa and let out a long breath.
This person is the protagonist of this book, Li Junhan.
His surname is a very common surname on the Korean Peninsula, but its origin lies outside the peninsula.
More than half a century ago, that not-so-accidental, war, brought Lee Junhan's grandfather to the southern tip of the Korean Peninsula.
Then, he had no chance to go back.
After that, a lot of changes have taken place in this world, just like the history of human existence on this earth for thousands of years.
It wasn't until more than ten years ago that the news came that was enough to make the septuagenarian cry with excitement.
The Iron Curtain, which had been closed for decades, was finally opened.
Then, Li Junhan knew that his surname Li originated from a small mountain village on the other side of the sea.
There are their grandfather's brothers, their father's brothers, and their own brothers.
It's just that although my father and myself can still speak Chinese, there is no way to get close to those "relatives" anymore.
After that, they returned to South Korea. In the past few decades, my grandfather, with his determination to live in a foreign country, withstood all kinds of discrimination and slander, and started from scratch by drifting in a foreign country with a craft that most Chinese all over the world would use. In the end, with his extraordinary perseverance, he was recognized by people and laid a lot of money in the family business. Also got the heart of a beautiful exotic woman.
Among them, there is one person who has been helping his grandfather.
After that, the two people, who are not of the same surname or even the same nationality, became brothers.
Then, just like so many stories of the elders that Grandpa Li Junhan heard under the big tree at the head of the village since he was a child, he made an agreement with his brother. If our children are all boys, then let them be brothers, if they are girls, then they will be sisters, if they are a boy and a girl, then they will be husband and wife.
Later, Lee Junhan's father and his two uncles were born.
So, in the end, this "marriage" agreement was passed on to the third generation.
As the eldest son and eldest grandson of the family, Li Junhan met his "fiancΓ©e" at the age of three, a girl who was still in infancy and would cry when she saw anyone, but she could laugh when she saw him.
The girl's name was Yoon-hee.
The story after that, as written earlier, the two grew up together, childhood sweethearts, and the two had no guesses......
It's just that the world is not what it was decades ago after all.
Two children who grew up together ...... after all
Forced to get married under pressure from her family, then pregnant, having children, and divorce......
For the sake of his wife on the operating table, Li Junhan signed that name, which also made him completely fall out with his father and grandfather.
Even his wife's father did not agree with his decision.
But for the sake of his wife, he made this decision that made him almost betray his relatives. He felt that no matter what, he wanted the girl who had been with him since he was a child to follow him to the end......
It's just that this is just his wishful thinking after all.
When his wife was finally discharged from the hospital, the first thing she saw him was the divorce petition......
Only then did he remember what his wife had said to him on the night of his wedding.
Li Junhan can not sign. His wife couldn't force him either.
After all, for the sake of his wife, he had just fallen out with his father and grandfather.
It's just that his wife has found a step for herself and for him. My wife said very well, if you divorce me, you can marry again, so that you will still have many children after all, and in this way, your father and grandfather will forgive you after all.
Then Li Junhan smiled. I finally signed my name on the application.
He knew that his wife might never have liked him as much as she liked a man. Otherwise, she would never have said something like that. Can you really find someone to marry again?
Don't be funny.
Since this is already the case, there is no point in deceiving each other anymore.
So, like this, Li Junhan left the family business and his wife.
became a loner.
Originally, according to his intentions, this house should have been left to her, after all, it was the only property in his name now.
It's the only thing he can give to an albatross who looks like an albatross who sets sail and flies into the distance for a so-called "life of his own".
But it was refused.
He saw a happy smile on his wife's face that he had never seen before.
That smile pierced Li Junhan's heart like a steel needle.
Maybe he wasn't a good husband from the beginning, right? Li Junhan thought a little depressed in his heart.
Lying like this on the couch, thinking, depressed, and hungry.
Slowly, I fell asleep.
When Li Junhan was woken up by the sound of the phone, it was already completely dark.
"Hey, who is it?" Li Junhan's voice was completely inaudible.
"Junhan? Why? β
"Oh...... It's Bing Wange! I...... Sleep too. β
"Went to bed so early?"
"Is it early? It's all ...... What time is it? At this point, Li Junhan realized that he didn't know what time it was.
"It's not even eight o'clock! Would you like to come out for a drink? Has your wife not been discharged from the hospital? β
ββ¦β¦ Brother ......" Li Junhan suddenly felt that the spirit of the whole person disappeared all at once.
"What's wrong?" This godlessness was immediately transmitted to the Bing Wan brother over there through the phone.
So, there was a lot of concern in his words.
ββ¦β¦ Where you are, I'll go find you. β
"Well, I'll send you the address!"
"Good!" Li Junhan nodded.
In fact, he nodded here, and the person on the other end of the phone couldn't see it at all.
The phone hangs up. Li Junhan threw the phone aside again. Rub your hand twice vigorously on your face.
Since I haven't had the courage to jump off the Mapo Bridge for so long, I ...... now I still have to live!
Got up from the sofa and cleaned up his decadent look, and Li Junhan came out of the house.
An hour later.
"Junhan, why are you here!"
"Oh, there's been a traffic jam on the way here."
"Well, come, I'll introduce you to someone! This is Luo Yingshixi, a PD of KBS TV. I talked to you about ...... before."
"Bing Wange...... Let's not talk about work today, let's have a bar! β
ββ¦β¦ What's wrong? β
"Come on! Drink! Li Junhan didn't say anything, just took a cup for himself, poured a full glass of wine, and raised it to the Bing Wan brother who was stunned there.
