On the 14th, Sandara Park updated her Twitter with, “While I was just waking up, Cheondoongie came home suddenly when my mother went out. He had just come in from a dry rehearsal, went back home to eat, and then said that he must head out once again… Hmmm…. I don’t know how to cook all that well yet, however!!! The menu is~ Fried eggs!” she revealed.

Continuing her tweet, Sandara Park said, “However!!! Cheondoongie was all worried and asked, “Are you including the shells in what you’re making?” Heol. It’s because one time in the past, I left behind tiny bits of the shell while I was cooking fried eggs. It was an honest mistake though, and I’m doing the best to my abilities today!!! Bonus, Vienna sausage!” adding more details.

After a while, she tweeted in addition, “Eldest sister’s fantastic meal is completed, served along with mother’s pre-prepared side dishes!!! But then Cheondoongie had two questions for me. “Did you forget to put salt in the eggs..?” “Is this completely done?” Such suspicions ㅋㅋ However, still took a bowl of rice and ate deliciously,” stating her happiness.

Lastly, Sandara Park updated with, “For my dongsaeng who was longing for a home-cooked food, the meal that was prepared by eldest noona with lots of love. Usually, I really don’t have time to cook, but hastily put out a humble meal so that he can eat deliciously; hoping that he will enjoy a good stage on Music Bank today! Fighting~” uploading a picture showing a meal, and proving once more that she is in fact, a dongsaeng-babo (T/N: fool for her brother).

In the photo that she uploaded, it showed the meal that Sandara Park had prepared for her younger brother, Cheondoong. On top is a bowl of white race, fried eggs, and quail eggs with jangjorim (T/N: salty beef side dish). Even with the simple fare, the love she has for her younger brother is extremely apparent.

Netizens were touched by Sandara Park‘s updates and commented with, “Sandara Park and Cheondoong are so cute together,” “Sandara Park is definitely a dongsaeng babo,” “Delicious,” “Thunder’s initial response is cute,” “This is really heart-warming,” “Indefinite love for a brother,” they said.
