00:00I don't think I've ever seen him sing in the middle, but he does have this kind of...
00:04I don't know.
00:05I mean, for example, if you look at it now, it's not...
00:08Is it true? Do you think it's true?
00:20It must be sweet.
00:21Sweet!
00:22Sweet?
00:23Then what do you think it is?
00:25I want to be a good friend.
00:26As an old friend, he will share a lot of things with you.
00:29He will ask you for help.
00:31It's all very subtle.
00:34When I was a kid, my father was a father.
00:38I didn't think about what he could do to help me.
00:41Except for the economic aspect.
00:43It's hard to think about other things.
00:45My father can help me with this, he can help me with that.
00:47But now it's different.
00:48My son and I are also practicing a new relationship.
00:51And our family obviously feels better than before.
00:55We're happier.
00:56Everyone is happy.
01:21When we just got married, I've been thinking about one thing.
01:24What's the use of him as my partner?
01:28But now I think he's very useful.
01:31This is a difference.
01:33I used to think that he wouldn't help me take care of the kids.
01:36And he didn't bring me anything.
01:40For example, good company or something.
01:43But now he's been taking care of the kids.
01:45And he's at home.
01:47I think he's very useful.
01:50Take it first.
01:51Otherwise it's too long, it's dangerous.
01:54Ready.
01:55Ready.
01:59It's flying away.
02:00Where?
02:01Is it enough?
02:02Not enough.
02:07Ouch.
02:09I'm afraid you're so heavy.
02:11Do you know how heavy it is?
02:15I don't want to see it.
02:18Do you want it?
02:19Yes.
02:20I don't want it.
02:22It's a bit of a split now.
02:24Either it's very traditional.
02:26Or I want to get married as soon as possible.
02:28And get into a marriage life as soon as possible.
02:30And then I'll put most of the family.
02:33The children and the family responsibility.
02:35Put it all to the elders at home.
02:38And then the other part is particularly rebellious.
02:40I don't think it's necessary to get married and have children.
02:43Maybe they'll ignore it.
02:48The male contribution to the family.
02:54Pick one.
02:55Do you want to choose?
02:56Come on.
02:57All right?
