En: The warm sunlight of Jeju shone on the coastline, making the sea sparkle. Ko: 가족들이 오랜만에 모였고, 아름다운 제주에서 재회를 기념하기로 했습니다. En: The family had gathered together after a long time, and they decided to commemorate their reunion in the beautiful Jeju. Ko: 이번 모임은 특히 특별했습니다. 해외에 있던 민준이 오랜만에 가족들에게 돌아왔기 때문입니다.
