"Dream - For children and some adult Indonesians, the animated series Upin & Ipin is an educational and entertaining watch. Although set in a village in Malaysia, the stories told within resonate deeply with the hearts of the Indonesian people."
"Besides the story of the lives of the twin brothers Upin & Ipin, there are two other familiar characters, namely Opah and Tok Dalang. Opah is the grandmother of Upin & Ipin and their sister, Kak Ros. Meanwhile, Tok Dalang is the grandfather who lives next door."
"Opah and Tok Dalang are depicted as loving, patient, and wise people. They are even regarded as elders in the village named Kampung Durian Runtuh."
The translation of "Hubungan yang Dekat" to English is "Close Relationship."
"Even though they are just next-door neighbors, Tok Dalang is very close to Opah's family and her grandchildren, Upin & Ipin. Opah often asks her twin grandchildren to deliver food or snacks to Tok Dalang. Meanwhile, Tok Dalang often gives fruit to Upin & Ipin or helps with chores at Opah's house."
"At a glance, Upin & Ipin, who are known as the orphaned twin children, seem to be the grandchildren of Tok Dalang. Tok Dalang even once said that the twin boys Upin & Ipin are his beloved grandchildren."
"Because of this, viewers in Indonesia often discuss the relationship between Tok Dalang and Opah. Through cocokologi, they conclude that there is a special relationship between Tok Dalang and Opah."
The suspicion of a special relationship has led to various speculations regarding Tok Dalang and Opah. Some say that Tok Dalang and Opah were actually former lovers. Meanwhile, others suspect that Tok Dalang is a victim of unrequited love in the past. However, there are also those who believe that Tok Dalang and Opah are just old friends. These various speculations are what make the story of Upin & Ipin even more interesting to watch.
Does the Puppet Master and Grandma Have a Special Relationship?
Sure! Here’s the translated text with the HTML tags preserved: "Lantas apa sebenarnya hubungan Tok Dalang dan Opah? Mengapa dua orang ini terlihat begitu dekat padahal tak punya hubungan darah? Benarkah Tok Dalang dan Opah adalah sepasang mantan kekasih atau hanya sebatas sahabat lama semata?" Translation: "So what is the actual relationship between Tok Dalang and Opah? Why do these two people seem so close even though they have no blood relation? Is it true that Tok Dalang and Opah are a pair of former lovers or just old friends?"
The answer is that if Les' Copaque as the production house that created Upin & Ipin wants to make them have a special relationship, it will definitely create a special episode that tells their story.
However, when watching one of the episodes titled 'Terompah Opah' in season 8, we will know what the relationship between Grandma Upin & Ipin and Tok Dalang is like. Yes, Tok Dalang and Opah do not have a special relationship as people have assumed all this time. In that episode, Tok Dalang, affectionately known as Atuk, has known Opah since they were children. They were playmates in Kampung Durian Runtuh. The same goes for Uncle Muthu and Ah Tong, who are part of the friendship circle of Opah and Tok Dalang since childhood.
"In the episode of Terompah Opah, viewers are invited to flashback to Opah's happy childhood when she received a new terompah (wooden sandal)."
"At that time, Opah was with her friends, including Tok Dalang, Uncle Muthu, and Ah Tong, playing in the river."
"However, while playing in the river, Opah's wooden clogs were swept away. Fortunately, Tok Dalang managed to save one of Opah's clogs. However, Opah is still sad because she can't wear her clogs anymore."
Here is the translated text with the HTML tags preserved: "From here, it is clear the relationship between Tok Dalang and Opah in the animated series Upin & Ipin. They have been friends since childhood. However, it is different with the relationship of the voice actor for Opah, played by Ainon Ariff, and Tok Dalang, portrayed by Burhanuddin Radzi. In real life, they are actually a married couple. They even founded the production house Les' Copaque that created Upin & Ipin."
