Tonight (14th) at 10:45 p.m., the second story of 'six couples' will be revealed on 'Oh Eun-young Report - Marriage Hell'.
Last week, the heartfelt tale of a husband who personally cared for his wife diagnosed as a person in a vegetative state after collapsing from moyamoya disease, following the loss of their third son at the age of 3 due to the same illness, garnered a strong reaction. Immediately after the broadcast, posts flooded internet cafes and communities, with people noting that the husband Yang Kwan-sik from the recently popular drama 'When Life Gives You Tangerines' also existed in reality, realizing the greatness of love while watching the husband care for his wife in a vegetative state. Particularly, in the trailer released towards the end of the broadcast, it seemed the inner thoughts of the children watching their father, who bore the heavy responsibility for the family, and their sick mother would be conveyed, which led to an outpouring of posts from viewers eager to see the second story. Tonight's broadcast will reveal the second story of six couples who live with the mindset that 'our family will always be six people' while protecting their departed third child and their sick mother, likely causing an explosive reaction following last week.
In the second broadcast of the six couples, the eldest son, who steadfastly supports his father, appears in the studio to meet Dr. Oh Eun-young. During a pre-interview with the production team, the husband noted that his children always showed bright faces and said that they were 'okay,' but that the biggest reason for his decision to appear on the show was the words from his eldest son, who said, 'I can't face reality even for a moment since mom collapsed.' In the daily video that followed, the eldest son, preparing to enter high school, went out to find a new school uniform and, as soon as he returned home, approached his sick mother and warmly greeted her. During dinner, as he showed his mother his new school uniform, his mother seemed to move her lips as if she wanted to say something, prompting him to empathize by saying, 'Mom, you want to talk, but you can't, right?' and comforting her with 'I'm listening to you.' The son focused on reading his mother's expression, hoping to understand what she wanted to say, even if it was just through her eyes or lips, before he quietly withdrew to his room and broke down in tears... In an ensuing interview, when asked by the production crew if he had considered receiving help from psychological counseling or psychiatry, he revealed an unexpected reason for not receiving counseling until now. His answer took everyone, including Dr. Oh Eun-young, the 4 MCs, and the production team in the studio, by surprise, causing tears to flow. What was the innermost feeling of the eldest son that moved Dr. Oh Eun-young to tears?
In the final video of 'six couples', the husband is depicted for the first time expressing his innermost thoughts to his wife, five years after she collapsed. Lying next to his wife, the husband quietly gazes at her and begins to share a dream he had the previous night. He recounts a dream where his wife dusted herself off, got up, smiled, and said, 'I'm all better.' Despite knowing that his wife's recovery is nearly impossible, he cautiously admits that he seems to still hold onto hope that she could awaken. Then suddenly, he confesses, 'I don't know how to handle everything...' revealing the deep feelings he had kept in his heart for all this time. The husband, who always thinks of his wife's situation before his own struggles, expresses concern about whether his caring while facilitating her treatment might be troubling her, and worries about whether he is holding onto a wife who might just want to leave now.
The husband, who expressed his determination to appear on the show to find answers about how to live to protect his beloved wife and children, received advice from Dr. Oh Eun-young. The final story of the six couples will air on the 14th at 10:45 p.m. in the 118th episode of 'Oh Eun-young Report - Marriage Hell'.
