Former Cross Gene member Takuya reunited with his father after 25 years on the March 28, 2026 KST broadcast of KBS2's 'Mr. House Husband 2'. The episode captured his emotional journey to Japan to locate his father, whose whereabouts and well-being had been a source of uncertainty for over two decades. Despite his internal conflict about whether to reopen old wounds, Takuya eventually tracked down his 71-year-old father at a staff dormitory for a newspaper distribution office on the outskirts of Tokyo.
The reunion was marked by a visceral outpouring of emotion as the father broke down in tears upon recognizing his son. He presented a heavily worn, nearly shredded photograph of his children—the only one he had kept as a memento over the past quarter-century. The encounter confirmed a specific, haunting memory from their final parting 25 years ago: Takuya recalled hiding in the trunk of his father’s car as a child because he was desperate not to be separated. His father revealed that the image of Takuya crying in the car has remained a recurring presence in his dreams ever since.
The meeting concluded with a bittersweet farewell that bridge the long years of silence. The father insisted on giving Takuya 100,000 KRW in pocket money, a traditional paternal gesture that had been delayed for 25 years. Following a final, tearful embrace, the two parted ways with a newfound sense of closure. Takuya’s decision to face his past rather than continue living as a stranger provided a significant step toward reconciliation, bringing a long-awaited resolution to their shared history.
