Brothers Are Those Who Share the Same Heart, Not Just the Same Blood

The youngest son returned to his hometown from the city to visit his paralyzed mother. He accidentally mixed up the specific drawers where his mother's medications were stored and gave his mother the wrong medicine, which led to his mother's death. Since the mother didn't have an immediate reaction on the spot, the youngest son didn't know that he was the one who had caused his mother's death. He began to suspect that it was his eldest brother who had killed their mother. So the youngest son started to suppress and humiliate the eldest brother in business. At a banquet, the youngest son's business partner told the truth that he had overheard by chance. Only then did the youngest son realize that it was he himself who had killed his mother and that the eldest brother had been silently protecting him all along. The suddenly enlightened youngest son knelt down and begged the eldest brother for forgiveness.
