In ‘Marriage Hell’, the wife of the despair couple revealed her husband’s shocking past.
On the 17th, the MBC entertainment program ‘Oh Eun-young Report - Marriage Hell’ aired the second story of the ‘Despair Couple’. Last week, the story of a husband who is perpetually drunk for 365 days due to his inability to control his drinking and a wife whose marriage has been ruined because of him was featured. The husband, unable to control his body due to intoxication, shocked everyone by pretending to drink from a trash can.
In the second video following last week, on the second day of filming, the wife expressed her pain caused by her husband’s past infidelity to a husband who had finally sobered up, shocking the studio. MC Park Ji-min expressed concern for the wife, saying, “I thought it was over, but it went on to infidelity...” Although it has been 10 years since the husband cheated, the wife stated that the wounds have not healed. However, the husband refuted this, claiming that he had not cheated and had only had a few meals and bought her a piece of clothing.
The husband’s shocking statement left the studio in silence, and Dr. Oh Eun-young firmly stated, “Continuing emotional intimacy is included in infidelity.” The wife analyzed that she could legally divorce but chose not to for the sake of loyalty to her husband and their children.
In the following video, the wife expressed her anger, saying she had considered divorce when her husband cheated, but the husband made an absurd statement, “Divorce does not exist in my vocabulary,” and “Where did a woman bring up the topic of divorce?” leaving all the MCs dumbfounded.
In the final video of the ‘Despair Couple’, the reason the wife could not divorce her husband despite their hellish marriage was revealed. The wife changed into outing clothes late in the evening and went outside with her daughter. They were heading to a delivery job together after work. Although the fuel costs exceeded the income from the delivery job, resulting in a loss, she said she worked every evening because it was something her daughter wanted to do.
After arriving at the destination, a small problem occurred during the delivery process, and the wife kept checking on her daughter’s condition for some reason. In the car heading to another delivery location, the daughter suddenly said, “I think I heard something,” and started crying for an unknown reason. The MCs were puzzled by the wife’s behavior of caring for her 33-year-old daughter as if she were a child. The wife mentioned that during her divorce proceedings due to issues with her husband, she canceled the lawsuit because her second daughter was not in good condition. She felt guilty, thinking that all of this was her fault.
Dr. Oh Eun-young firmly diagnosed that the husband must quit drinking for the sake of their children and should not drink even a drop in the future. The husband responded to Dr. Oh Eun-young’s diagnosis, saying, “I will quit drinking,” showing a firm resolve through his expression. He then sincerely apologized to his wife for causing her youth to be wasted due to his drinking, stating that he would not ask for forgiveness but would strive to create a happy family.
