# The main characters only I know episode 280
Yuhyeon silently looked down at the man who bowed his head in front of her.
His actions and tone conveyed both his strong will to never lose someone precious to him again and his sadness.
The man who seemed like an unwavering fortress was praying so desperately.
An absolute proposition that others would not even question has been denied.
Yuhyeon was still not disappointed.
‘I see.’
This man, who only showed his strong side to everyone, has been hiding his sadness until now.
No, maybe he had already been saying that he was in pain.
But instead of noticing it, people made him carry an even heavier burden.
The public’s applause erased the man’s tears.
The crowd’s cheers silenced the man’s cries.
No one knew how heavy and sticky suffering was boiling like magma in the shadows beneath the brilliant spotlight.
I didn’t even try to find out.
The man named Musin whom everyone praised so much.
He was just an ordinary father.
‘Jin Cheongun knew this and did this on purpose.’
Jin Cheong-un’s actions were completely unforgivable. Because they tried to kill people by taking advantage of the emotions of people who were grieving the loss of their family.
But this method resembled Yuhyeon more than anyone else.
If Yoohyeon were in the same position as him, she would have used the same method.
Yoohyeon clenched her fists so that they could not be seen.
In words, he told Wei Mu-hyeok that his family was all an illusion and a fake, but in reality, Yu-hyeon didn’t really think that way.
The moment Yoohyeon truly denies that, it is no different from denying the will and life of all the phantoms she has encountered in the world of thought.
The world of thought was ultimately another reality, a world of what-ifs.
Wei Mu-hyeok simply chose that place rather than the current reality.
‘still.’
We could not allow the world of thought to run wild like this.
This man’s job didn’t work out, but it was definitely an issue that needed to be addressed.
“I want to meet Musin’s family one more time.”
“… … yes?”
Musin raised his head. He looked at Yuhyeon with reddened eyes filled with embarrassment.
“Why suddenly… … .”
“Just think of it as my stubbornness. “Do you not like it?”
“I am… … .”
Wi Mu-hyeok, who was pondering, soon nodded.
“… … All right. Please follow me.”
Musin stood up and brought Yuhyeon back to the world of thoughts.
“ah! “Daddy’s here!”
The moment Wi Ye-eun saw Mu-sin coming through the front door, she ran over to him and fell into his arms. Yuhyeon had the thought that her daughter really liked her father.
Wei Ye-eun was held in Wei Mu-hyeok’s arms and rubbed his cheeks. Eventually, she noticed her father’s strange appearance and her eyes widened.
“Dad, did you cry?”
“huh? no. “Dad, I didn’t cry.”
“Dad, your eyes are red.”
Wei Ye-eun was thrilled and glared at Yu-hyeon.
“You’re bad! “My dad made me cry!”
“Yes, Eun-ah. My dad’s friend didn’t do that. “It’s just because my dad has a hard time working on his own.”
“Dad, are you having a hard time? “Would you like Ye-eun to treat you well?”
“huh. okay.”
Wei Ye-eun looked at Wei Mu-hyeok, who was squatting down to his height, and blew out his breath.
“honey. “What’s going on?”
At that time, Wi Mu-hyeok’s wife also appeared. She looked at her daughter and her husband, then shifted her gaze to Yuhyeon.
“oh. “Speak up when guests arrive.”
“No, that’s… … .”
“Just wait a moment. I’ll bring you a drink at least. Come on in. “Please don’t stand in the doorway.”
“… … Excuse me.”
Yoohyeon took off her shoes and entered the living room.
Wei Ye-eun, who was held in Wei Mu-hyeok’s arms, was still glaring at Yu-hyeon, as if she had not yet erased her suspicions toward Yu-hyeon.
“I don’t have much to prepare, I’m sorry.”
“no. This is enough. Mrs.”
Yuhyeon drank the tangerine drink given to him by Wei Muhyeok’s wife.
It tasted exactly like what was sold on the market. From the corner of her eye, Yoohyeon glanced at Yeeun above, who was diligently nursing her father.
“dad. Does it still hurt? “Will Ye-eun continue to shout at me?”
“no. Yes, Eunah. “Dad, it’s okay.”
Wei Mu-hyeok burst out laughing.
It was a gentle appearance that he would never have seen if he was his usual self.
That smile looked exactly like the one in the photo I saw when I first entered Wei Mu-hyeok’s house.
Yuhyeon sipped the drink in her cup in silence for a while, and Wi Muhyuk looked at her with anxious eyes.
I wanted to ask if it was enough, but I couldn’t say it first, perhaps because I had a family.

Eventually, time passed.
Yuhyeon got up from her seat as if she had fully organized her thoughts.
Wi Mu-hyeok also followed Yu Hyeon and got up.
“Hey, what are you going to do now… … ?”
“I need to check one more thing for a moment. “Can you please let me speak to your wife?”
“… … “Of course.”
Wi Mu-hyeok called his wife.
“huh? what’s the matter? “Are you hiding something from me?”
“no. “There is no such thing.”
“I was the one who called your wife.”
“A guest? “Do you have any questions for me?”
Yuhyeon looked at Wei Muhyeok, who was still shaking with anxiety, and smiled, telling him not to worry.
“What do you think of your husband?”
“oh.”
Wei Wu-hyeok’s wife covered her mouth with her hand at the sudden question and then burst into laughter.
“I’m a little embarrassed.”
“I’m sorry for suddenly asking this question. However, I really wanted to confirm. What can I say about Moo-hyuk above? He is someone I respect very much. “If it’s difficult for you, you don’t have to answer.”
“No, not really. hmm. What kind of person is my husband? … .”
Eventually, she looked at Wei Mu-hyeok and curled up the corner of her mouth, probably feeling playful.
“He doesn’t listen to me even if I nag him all the time, doesn’t put his clothes in the laundry basket when he goes out, and doesn’t clean properly.”
“Ugh.”
Wei Mu-hyeok’s expression crumpled mercilessly, as if he could not bear his wife’s nagging.
The daughter, Wi Ye-eun, patted her father’s shoulder with her cute hand, telling him not to worry.
“Still, he cares for our Ye-eun more than anyone else and loves me… … “He is my reliable husband.”
Wei Mu-hyeok looked touched as he saw his wife smiling softly.
“you… … .”
“So, take care of it before you start nagging me. “How long do I have to do that?”
“I’m sorry.”
“okay.”
Yuhyeon thought the answer was sufficient and changed the person asking the next question.
“You said Ye-eun, right?”
“yes. “This is Wi Ye-eun.”
“Our Yeeun, what do you think of your father?”
“Daddy?”
Wei Ye-eun looked up at her father. Wi Mu-hyeok looked slightly expectant, as if he wanted to hear this answer as well.
“Ugh.”
Wei Ye-eun thought for a moment about what to say, and then suddenly answered as if something good had come to mind.
“Dad, you are Superman to me!”
“Superman?”
“yes! Just like a hero from a movie! My dad is very strong and strong. Dad always protects me. That’s why he’s a hero to me.”
“I see.”
As if this was a sufficient answer, Yuhyeon headed towards the entrance.
“Are you going?”
“yes. It wasn’t originally planned to be like this, but I ended up staying for a long time unintentionally. “Thank you for answering my rude question.”
“Still, it’s been a while since I’ve been my husband’s guest. Please stay a little longer and then leave.”
“honey. It can’t be helped because the customers are also busy with work. “I will see you off and come back.”
Wi Mu-hyeok immediately followed Yu Hyeon as she was about to go out to the front door.
The two people just came out of the world of thought. Unlike the warm inside, the outside was very desolate and cold.
Obviously, there won’t be anything physically different.
Wei Mu-hyeok thought that the air that touched his skin was cold.
“so… … “What are you going to do?”
Wi Mu-hyeok asked Yu Hyeon that question. It was embarrassing that this man suddenly asked his wife and daughter a question, and it was hard to read his intentions, but somehow, I felt that the atmosphere was different from before.
“Musin-nim… … “You love your wife and daughter, right?”
“… … “That is natural.”
“To what extent?”
“Enough to give it my all.”
“okay.”
Yuhyeon shook her head several times.
To Wei Mu-hyeok, even this short time felt like an eternity, and his lips became dry.
“This incident… … “I’ll keep it a secret for now.”
“… … !”
Wei Mu-hyeok’s body trembled, as if he didn’t know that Yu-hyeon would say that.
“Is that really true?”
“I don’t lie about things like this.”
“Why all of a sudden… … . “Didn’t you come here for association work?”
“no. “The reason I came here was because of a very personal matter.”
okay. For Yoohyeon, all of this is personal.
To protect the peace of the world, to collect the scattered fragments of the Book of the Beginning, and to fight against enemies who stand in his way.
He didn’t think he had always acted for the greater good.
“And, I apologize for what I said earlier about my family being fake.”
“No, that’s… … .”
“I realized it while we were talking. no. Actually, I already knew. “They are both living people, and they are family members who care about Musin more than anyone else.”
“… … .”
Wei Wu-hyeok could not answer anything.
This man has now turned around and declared that he will cover up his mistakes.
“I saw Mr. Wi Mu-hyeok’s determination well. What is related to the Gwanghwamun world of thought… … I’ll take care of it. “It may be possible for collectors to do this even without a shredder.”
If I had to, I was willing to clear the world of thought even if it meant taking out all four major demons.
Wei Mu-hyeok felt his heart tighten at Yu-hyeon’s words.
The moment he felt this man’s sense of understanding, Wei Mu-hyeok realized.
This man in front of me also experienced the same pain as me. Without even knowing it, he ended up saying harsh words to Yuhyeon.
‘I am.’
I felt sorry for myself for being relieved by Yoohyeon’s words.
In the end, it was he who couldn’t let go of his regrets, and it was he who clung to them and tried to drive people he didn’t know to their deaths.
However, Yoohyeon understood her and said she would help her.
“I am… … .”
Wei Wu-hyeok could not say more than that.
There is no ending where everyone is happy.
This man is definitely strong. The collectors he leads are also strong. Perhaps, if other high-level collectors join in, the 10-fold Sasang World will definitely be cleared.
But how many people will die by then?
How many innocent people will be harmed?
Just because of my own greed.
Nevertheless, I couldn’t hastily say that I would step forward. Every time she did that, she caught the sight of her wife and daughter smiling at her.
It would be better if you were truly a selfish and bad person.
Then I wouldn’t have felt this guilty.
No, isn’t he truly a selfish and bad person who feels guilty but ultimately fails to give up his personal desires?
But, suddenly a thought occurred to me.
He sacrificed so much to protect this world.
If it had not been for Wi Mu-hyeok, Korean society would not have been rebuilt faster after the unification of ideology, and it would have taken longer for the perspective on collectors to change.
The existence of Wi Mu-hyeok and his past actions have great significance.
There were no collectors who didn’t know that.
Isn’t receiving compensation for that a fair price?
‘I am… … .’
I couldn’t say thank you to Yoohyeon. The moment he said those words, he felt like he had crossed a river that he could no longer turn back from.
It was he who had to make the choice.
Not Yoohyeon.
“I’ll just go now.”
Wei Wu-hyeok was unable to give any answer until Yu-hyeon dispersed and disappeared like an illusion.
* * *
After Yuhyeon left, Wei Muhyeok, who was left alone, came out to the living room and flopped down on the sofa.
His hand lifted a small picture frame.
Wei Mu-hyeok carefully swept his hand over the picture in the frame.
If I entered the world of thought like this, I could actually see this face I missed. I was able to hold that warm hand. I could hear laughter.
“… … .”
Musin stood up helplessly and headed to his room on the second floor.
To a place where there is a family waiting for you.
“honey.”
“dad. are you okay?”
The moment he returned to that place he missed, his wife and daughter asked him with worried faces. It was only then that Moo-hyuk realized that he was making a very serious expression.
Wei Mu-hyeok didn’t want to worry his family, so he forced his mouth to smile.
“uh. are you okay.”
Contrary to my thought that seeing my family would give me strength, my mind became more confused.
Did he understand Wi Mu-hyeok’s feelings? My daughter came over and placed her small hand on his cheek.
I felt a warmth that could not be called fake running through my hands and onto my cheeks.
“dad. it’s hard? don’t cry.”
“Yes, Eun-ah. Dad… … .”
“dad. “We are fine.”
“Yeeun?”
The moment he heard his daughter’s words, Wei Mu-hyuk trembled. His trembling eyes moved from his daughter to his wife.
“honey. “We’re okay.”
“you. What are you talking about? “I can’t believe it’s okay.”
“You know better than us.”
Wei Mu-hyeok thought he had finally been caught. He had no choice but to do so. This world is very small, and therefore very imperfect.
There was no way he wouldn’t have questioned the fact that his wife and daughter had to stay at home.
Even though he knew that, he had lived without any complaints until now.
Wei Mu-hyeok had to desperately swallow something rushing down his throat.
“Well, what do you mean? I… … I do not know. honey. do not say that. I am… … .”
His wife looked at Wei Mu-hyeok with sad eyes and hugged him.
“are you okay. Me and Ye-eun. Because it’s okay.”
“I, I… … .”
In the end, Wei Wu-hyeok was unable to control his overflowing emotions.
He eventually.
He poured out his true feelings.
“I’m not okay.”
He shed hot tears from his eyes.
“You and Yeeun. I waited too long to meet you two. I don’t want to break up again. Just live here with me forever. please. Please, please. Pretend not to know until the end. “Just carry on like before.”
He got down on his knees. The overflowing sadness turned into endless tears and flowed endlessly.
The man who seemed taller than anyone else became smaller and shabbier than anyone else.
Even though his wife and daughter saw Wei Mu-hyeok like that, they were not disappointed in him.
“dad.”
Wei Ye-eun wiped away Wei Mu-hyeok’s tears with her hands and smiled brightly.
“Dad is a hero. “Yeeun’s hero.”
“Yes, Eun-ah.”
“Yeeun, I hope my dad continues to be a hero.”
“… … !”
The moment I heard those words.
Wi Mu-hyeok hugged his daughter and wife and burst into tears.
continue.
continue.
I sobbed endlessly.
