In the last episode of 'Hyoja Village 2', which was expected to have a 'flower viewing' that was quite different from the flower viewing of the filial son Ja-bit, the flower viewing of Yoo Jae-hwan's mother, who participated in both seasons 1 and 2, conveyed a different impression of filial piety entertainment to viewers.
Yoo Jae-hwan, who was called the official 'filial son' throughout the 1st and 2nd seasons of the Hyoja Village, was the only one in the sudden mission of 'Make Parents Happy', unable to serve meals due to panic symptoms. Fortunately, his condition improved after the break, and he took out beef from the refrigerator and grilled it, boiled kalguksu, and served his mother with a meal he hadn't finished the last time, and did his best. However, in the kitchen, which was a mess without washing dishes, the mother eventually stepped in and started washing the dishes, and the mother lamented, saying, “I come here to wash dishes that I don’t even do at home.”
While the parents gathered together this evening were busy bragging each other with the 'octopus' dish prepared by their son, only Yoo Jae-hwan's mother sighed deeply at the sight of her son, who was different from what she expected, and made everyone laugh.
On the other hand, the production team called the families of the filial piety village outdoors, took out a 'hyeon seat' and made the parents sit this time. And when the parents write down the question, 'What do you want your son to do here right now?', the mission for the son to grant the wish has begun. Parents began to write down what they wanted with anticipation, and the parents of Yoon Ji-seong, Lee Jae-won, and Dong Hyun-bae decided to 'hug' as if they had promised.
In the first order, Lee Jae-won and his son hugged powerfully, and Lee Jae-won said, “Be healthy, father”, bringing everyone to tears. In particular, his father liked him like a child, saying, “Hug me often,” and Lee Jae-won said, “I love you! He confessed his sincerity, saying, “Father,” and moved me.
To their appearance, Tei said, “I would have always wanted to express it. I could have just looked at the timing,” he said, and Hong Hyun-hee warmly looked at the rich man, saying, “You look the happiest when you are in the filial piety village.”
In an interview, Lee Jae-won's father promised to maintain a close relationship with his son, saying, "From now on, whenever possible, I'll get into the habit of hugging each other or even shaking hands with each other."
Next, Dong Hyun-bae also expressed his love for his mother with a hug and a kiss on the forehead, which his mother wanted. Yoo Jae-hwan's mother asked her son to play the keyboard excitedly, and Yoo Jae-hwan immediately set the keyboard and immediately played and sang. Kim Dong-hyeon sang 'Girl' by his mother and Lee Mun-se and made his wish of 'singing in chorus with his son' come true. During the mission, Yoon Ji-seong, who had been absent due to schedule, returned and presented flowers to his mother and finished the last mission with a hug.
On their way home, Lee Jae-won first held his father's hand, and he could see the two of them getting closer. Kim Dong-hyun's mother told her son about her time at the filial piety village, saying, "I'm really happy that my mom came here to spend time with you and meet nice people, so it's like filial piety."
On the other hand, when Yoo Jae-hwan's mother wrote down what she wanted, she said, "I wonder how my child will live in this harsh world. I want to hear your heart openly,” he confessed, wanting to have a sincere conversation with his son. With this mother's earnest heart, the production team of Hyoja Village handed over a 'flower viewing' envelope to Yoo Jae-hwan's mother and mother.
After opening the 'flower envelope', the mother shed tears, saying to her son, "If you live without your mother, you will feel how precious your mother is." Yoo Jae-hwan went to Hyeon-bae's house to say goodbye with a complicated mind over the unexpected breakup. Dong Hyeon-bae’s mother said to Yoo Jae-hwan, “Let’s not hurt our Jae-hwan. Not being sick is filial piety.”
Yoo Jae-hwan and his mother, who had said their last goodbyes with the family members of the Hyoja Village gathered together, walked to the desolate and lonely place of separation. The mother said, “I don’t think this is heaven,” and sat down, and the two stared blankly at the scenery.
When Yoo Jae-hwan said, “If I had a life without my mother, I think it would be hell instead of heaven,” her mother expressed a heavy heart, saying, “If you think that way, you can’t live in this harsh world.” Then, when we told the story of how we had wailed, "How can parents take care of their sick children?", Yoo Jae-hwan opened up his true feelings to each other, saying, "I was very upset because I felt like I was being disrespectful after hearing that."
Then, the mother said, “Can you live well in this cold world without me? I just feel sad every day,” and Yoo Jae-hwan said bitterly, “If I were born again, I wouldn’t want to be my mother.” The mother eagerly hoped that her son would be healthy and got up to leave, but Yoo Jae-hwan grabbed the mother who was about to leave and cried, saying, "It's okay if my mother is in pain all the time. I’m dropping it, what do you want me to carry?” he replied. Yoo Jae-hwan held onto his mother with tears and appeals full of regret, deepening his regret, and his mother also shed tears as she saw her son.
To Yoo Jae-hwan, who was clinging to tears, his mother said, “I am a person who cries a lot, but I am holding back a lot right now. If I cry now, I think I will collapse,” but Yoo Jae-hwan said, “Mom can collapse,” and in the end, his mother also shed tears, and the studio MCs who watched it also shed tears, saying, “Anyway, my mother decided to have a super strong water. It seems that I have made up my mind as firmly as possible” and sympathized with the mother who had no choice but to leave the flower viewing. The mother, who was emotional, repeated the words “Jae-hwan, live well” until the end, and left the road with a heart of concern for Yoo Jae-hwan until the end.
After the flower viewing of Yoo Jae-hwan's hat full of regret was over, the mother said in an interview, "It was so sad to think of leaving my son alone. It broke my heart,” recalling the flower viewing time.
At the end of the last episode of Hyoja Village, Hong Hyeon-hee said, “I will never forget my husband and mother-in-law’s flower viewing until I die,” and Tei said, “It was a time when I desperately realized the importance of spending time with my parents.” Defcon conveyed the news that the family members of the filial piety village had come and gone after filming and were still maintaining a close relationship, giving them warmth until the end.
