JOON YOUNG couldn't sleep a wink that night. Masyadong okupado ang kanyang isip sa dami nang nangyari ng gabing iyon sa kanya.

Nangunguna na roon ay ang pagsunood niya sa babaeng hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin niya alam ang pangalan. At first, he admitted that he followed her simply because he was just curious about her. But there was really something about that girl that makes him want to be close to her...

Which seems to be a mistake.

Oo, mali ngang desisyon ang ginawa niyang pagsunod dito at ang paglapit niya dahil sa nadiskubre niya kagabi.

Hinanap siya ni Ramen Lady.

Siya ng hinahanap nitong Park Joon Young.

Pero ang isang bagay na hindi niya ma-figure out ay bakit siya nito hinahanap?

And then, he remembered that phone call he overheard the other day. "I promise, I'll find Joon Young and I'll bring him home soon for you Oppa."

Oppa. Reality hit him right in the gut when he realized it. If there is someone who that girl would call oppa and would find ways to locate where on Earth he is—it's that one person.

His very own father.

His father, Park Hye Song, is an international businessman that distributes general merchandise to different parts of the world. Hindi ito nagtatagal sa isang bansa na tinitirhan nito dahil na-de-destino ito sa iba't ibang lugar. So, most of childhood he spent in different countries in southeast-asia.

Dahil doon, wala siyang naging constant na kaibigan. He was also a very shy teenager then, that every single day, he'd rather spend it at home. When he was fifteen, his father gave him a guitar and taught him to play it. It became their bonding moment, and soon enough he realized that he was satisfied as long as he was doing music with his father than going out and meeting friends. Doon nagsimula ang pagmamahal at ang pangarap niyang tahakin ang daan sa musika.

On his early teenage years, nadestino ang papa niya sa Pilipinas—his home country. He was a half Filipino yet he settled in South Korea in his late teenage years. Halos limang taon sila doon kaya naman natutunan niya ang salita at kultura ng bansa.

And then, when he was 18 years old, they went back to Korea. Soon thereafter, his mother passed away. Hindi nila naagapan ang ovary cancer nito na huli na nilang nadiskubre. After the tragedy in the family, Joon Young and his father continued their travels from one country to another for another year.

At sa kasagsagan ng mga panahong iyon, nakilala niya si Amy. Ito ang unang naging seryoso niyang ka-relasyon at kahit na halos labing dalawang taon ang tanda nito sa kanya, hindi naging hadlang iyon para sila magkaroon ng malalim na pagkakaintindihan. He was 20 then, while Amy was 32.

But what he didn't understand at that time was his father's opposition of his relationship with Amy, only to find out a month later that they are going to be married.

Hindi mapigilang mapatawa ni Joon Young habang inaalala niya ang mapait na ala-alang iyon. Sa ika-anim na buwan ng relasyon nila ni Amy, nakipagkita ito sa kanya dahil may kailangan daw itong sabihin. Ngunit ganoon nalang ang pagtataka niya nang pagdating nito sa kanilang meeting place, kasama nito ang kanyang papa—at magkahawak kamay ang dalawa.

That's when they told him that they were going to be married. Noong una, hindi siya makapaniwala sa mga nangyayari sa kanya, ngunit nang makita niyang seryoso at walang bahid ng anumang pagbibiro ang nangyayari, hindi niya napigilan ang sarili niya.
