Meet the Benin family's everyday life that shone more because they were together and the poignant moments of parting.
In Pasadena, U.S., why is the Sunwoo Yong-yeo family unusually busy from early morning?! Today is Eaton's baseball game, a major event for the Sunwoo Yong-yeo family. Eaton, who loves baseball more than anyone, dreams of being a major leaguer. His room is filled with various trophies and even an MVP crown, the fruits of his dedication to baseball. Sunwoo Yong-yeo and Choi Yeon-je, who packed plenty of snacks for Eaton and his friends, head to the ballpark. Eaton and his father Kevin Gordon (56) have already arrived at the field warming up. Kevin, who has always been Eaton's reliable baseball teacher, is also serving as the team's assistant coach today. Sunwoo Yong-yeo, who has never been to a baseball stadium in her life and finds baseball difficult, is absorbed in filming when it is her grandson's turn. With the whole family's support, the long-awaited game begins. Can grandson Eaton lead the team to victory?
Meanwhile, Jan, who is enjoying a pleasant daily life in Korea, specially has Jan and her uncle Samuel go out to meet grandson on his way home from school today. The two smile happily at the sight of Mikael, who runs up and throws his arms around his grandmother, and the cute grandson. When they meet on the way home from school, they enter a mysterious building instead of going home… This place, filled with children's voices, is a taekwondo studio representing Korea! Following Mikael, who usually learns taekwondo after school, Jan and Samuel also decide to attend the taekwondo class as observers. At this time, Samuel, the owner of an insane physique who captures the attention of the children taking the class, appears! Samuel, who works as a fitness coach in Côte d'Ivoire, instantly wins the love of the children and the master. From punching to kicking and board breaking! For a while, 1:1 coaching for Samuel continues. Meet the passionate student Samuel and Jan's taekwondo challenge, specializing in "nyang-nyang punch." And what special gift did the master prepare for the two?
On a rainy evening, unusual guests who sing along to the doorbell from outside came to visit the Benin family. Their identity: Lee Eun-jung (45) and Daniel's colleagues, members of an African dance team, of the Korean♥Benin couple. Bursting in with tremendous energy, they instantly turn the atmosphere inside the house upside down. After exchanging warm greetings with the family, the members seem especially familiar with Samuel, who came to Korea for the first time. It turns out some members had visited Côte d'Ivoire, where Samuel lives, for dance training and built rapport. The loyal dance team members rushed over at the news of Samuel's trip to Korea. What kind of fun will the dinner with them bring?
For the members, Daniel and Samuel brothers prepared a full-course African local meal. From Beninese peanut stew to Beninese seasoning 'okra sauce,' the Benin family's staple 'pilon,' and cassava dish 'attiéké.' A table full of Africa is laid out on a Korean dining table. How did the members react to the African food? After the meal, the family and colleagues gather to perform African dances. A lively dance party from people who can really dance! Not only Daniel, who works as a dancer, but also Samuel, who shyly came out and showed a storm of popping, and Jan, who showed an extraordinary groove, performed. As expected! The dancer family's dance drew enthusiastic response from the audience. Then stepped forward Mikael, who gathered the courage to show a dance to his grandmother! Can the dancer family's eldest grandchild carry on the family's dance legacy?
Already, a month that has flown by quickly, the time of parting has come for the Benin family. Jan's suitcase is packed with household items bought in Korea, and the two Korean in-laws dress in bright clothes made from the traditional fabric Jan brought as a gift from Benin. The Benin-Korean in-laws wearing matching clothes soon wore matching smiles. The family takes commemorative photos to remember this moment forever. Although they met for the first time because of the long distance, Jan and Korean grandmother Kwon Ae-kyung (70) became closer than anyone and left a warm hug in the photo.
Then grandson Mikael reads the handwritten letter prepared for the Beninese. At Mikael's sincere words that he was a perfect 100 out of 10 as an uncle, Samuel sheds the tears he had held back, and Jan also becomes overwhelmed with emotion. Jan and Samuel, who had their first-ever trip to Korea, met the family they wanted to see, had various experiences, and made countless memories. They wipe away the sadness of parting with tears and promise to meet again.
