Brilio.net - Premiering in 2007, Upin & Ipin has become the favorite animated series of Indonesian people to this day. Not only children, many adults also enjoy the stories in each episode of this original Malaysian animation. The reason is, there are many interesting facts hidden from the characters.
Growing up as orphans and living with their grandmother and older sister, many were curious about how Kak Ros and Opah met Upin and Ipin's daily needs and living expenses. Even though in several episodes it is explained that Kak Ros has a side job, one of which is making comics, this income is deemed insufficient to meet the needs of 4 people in one house.
Not many people know that Upin and Ipin's family doesn't just rely on Kak Ros' income, you know. Apparently, Sis Ros and Opah got the monthly money left by Upin and Ipin's parents. Yes, even though they died, the twins' parents left a pension.
In the Upin & Ipin birthday episode, Opah gave a gift in the form of a photo with the words Mak, Abah, Kak Ros, Upin and Ipin. In the photo, you can see that Kak Ros is still small and Upin-Ipin is still a baby, being held by his parents. Unfortunately, the faces of the parents of these twin boys who love fried chicken are not shown.

From the photo it is also revealed that Upin and Ipin's fathers worked as soldiers. Although it is not very clear, on the uniform you can see an identification tag that says Abdul Salam, which is the name of Upin and Ipin's father.

Based on this story, many then gave birth to the theory that Upin and Ipin's parents left pension money for Opah, Kak Ros, Upin and Ipin. It's not wrong that these twin brothers were never told that they were experiencing financial difficulties.
