The past few days I've been watching this Korean Reality Show call " 4 Sons And 1 Daughter ".

It's a Reality Show which 5 celebrities moves in with 2 old folks which are husband and wife and the 5 of them will be their kids for a duration of 5 days and 4 nights.

The host are Kim Gura as the eldest, Kim Min Jong as the 2nd son, Seo Jang Hoon as the 3rd son, Kim Jae Won and the 4th son and Lee Honey as the youngest daughter of the 5.

I happen to watch this episode which they go to a fishing village at Jeju Island and be the kids of a pair of old folks that catches fish early in the morning and brings them to the market to sell after that.

I watched this episode because there's my favourite Jung Eunji in it which is the guest for this week as the youngest of them all.

All of them helped out with the folks in going out to the sea early in the morning to catch fishes and bringing them to the market to sell for their daily spending.

After all those activities they'll go back home and prepare lunch for the whole family and have a meal together and followed by dinner with some fun games and chitchat session to end the day.

At first I'm just watching because of Jung Eunji but after watching a few episodes of it, I felt that the celebrities are really all into the thing and treating each other as siblings.

Of course I know all these shows are scripted but maybe because of their good acting or they really slowly get to know each other and became more and more comfortable with each other. I really somehow see the bond they have during these few episodes.

They all cared for Kim Gura when he went out to sea and came back home with severe seasickness which actually he did not even contribute anything during that period.

They praised Kim Min Jong when he went out to sea and successfully helped out in catching tons of fishes back as usually he's the one that screw up everything.

We see the young sisters of Lee Honey and Jung Eunji really acting as nice daughters, always helping out the folks in cooking and of course accompanying them throughout as they are girls which are really not capable of doing more of the physical work. Eunji even knitted a shawl or scarf whichever you all call that for their mom in that short 4 days when they are there.

When they are at home after a long day of work, they are all still so full of fun and laughter when they talked about what happened during the daytime and the things that they have done. This is really something that is lacking during this modern time of the life that we're having.

It's until the last episode of this group that really tear-jerked me.

As it's just a 5 day 4 night recording. In the blink of an eye and it's time for them to leave.

You can see when the old folks are sending them to the place where they first see each other with official introduction to each other which the group and the folks really look like total strangers to they really walked together like a close family.

The folks are like feeling so reluctant to send them back as they are celebrities and they don't even know when is the next time they will see each other again. The mom and dad are like slowly tearing up especially the mom when Eunji gave her the shawl or scarf which I feel it is so touching as it's just a short 5 days.

After watching this I looked at myself and think what have I really done for my mom, it's actually nothing. I'm not even a son that my mom can be proud of me. Kim Gura said in the show that after we know our mistakes we have made, we should live our life in reflection.

I totally agree with that but how many of us are able to do that.

Realise our mistake and life our life in reflection.
