I just want to know whether he&#8217;s alive,\\&#8221; and asked for urgent help. The only clues he had were a single photograph, a name, a hometown and an approximate age. With that limited information, he set off for Hokkaido, the town listed as his father&#8217;s hometown.<\/p>\n<p> He visited the local municipal office and began combing through records. Tense and focused, he uncovered an unexpected lead in the paperwork. Fearing he might lose his chance forever, he hurriedly boarded a flight to the area he believed his father was living.<\/p>\n<p> Driven by a single-minded determination, he endured a grueling journey of trains and planes. As he drew closer to his destination, he admitted, \\&#8221;What if he doesn&#8217;t recognize me?\\&#8221;<\/p>\n<p> Late that night, Takuya arrived at the address he believed to be his father&#8217;s and stood frozen, hesitating for a long time. Taken aback by the surroundings, he confessed, \\&#8221;Maybe meeting him now isn&#8217;t the right choice; perhaps it&#8217;s better not to,\\&#8221; revealing his inner turmoil.<\/p>\n<p> Can Takuya bridge a 25-year gap and miraculously reunite with his father? The tense, breath-holding journey airs on Salim-nam on March 28 at 9:20 p.m. KST.<\/p>\n<p> [Sports Today reporter Jeong Ye-won <span><font color=\"blue\">ent@stoo.com<\/font><\/span>]<br \/>\u300cUp-close and entertaining \u2014 FunFun News \u24d2 Sports Today\u300d   <\/p>\n<div class=\"byeline\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- view_related --><!-- view_related\/\/ --><!-- \ubc14\uc774\ub77c\uc778 \ud558\ub2e8 2\uc904 \ud558\uc774\ub77c\uc774\ud2b8 --><!-- \ubc14\uc774\ub77c\uc778 \ud558\ub2e8 \ud558\uc774\ub77c\uc774\ud2b8 --><!-- next_article\/\/ --><\/p>\n<table width=\"100%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"50%\"><\/td>\n<td align=\"right\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Takuya embarks on an emotional journey to find his biological father, whom he hasn&#8217;t seen in 25 years, seeking closure and connection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/contents-cdn.viewus.co.kr\/image\/2026\/03\/CP-2023-0081\/image-b147745e-f97d-47f5-a9df-32476a099585.jpeg","footnotes":""},"categories":[278102],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-253732","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-entertainment"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Will Takuya Find His Father After 25 Years?
