The worst husband image that even Dr. Oh Eun-young was appalled by was revealed in 'Marriage Hell'.
The MBC program 'Oh Eun-young Report - Marriage Hell,' which aired on 7th, ranked 1st in the 2049 viewership ratings again for two weeks in a row. According to the ratings research company Nielsen Korea, 'Marriage Hell' recorded 1.6% in the 2049 viewership ratings that day, marking the highest figure among all programs in the same time slot for the second week in a row.
In the 129th episode of 'Marriage Hell' that aired that day, the realistic conflicts of the 'husband-wife' couple ignited public outrage. The episode revealed the story of a husband who stands by his in-laws for life and a wife who has endured loneliness and anger as a result.
# Starting distrust over KARD loans... 'shock' at the husband's irresponsible attitude
The most shocking scene during the broadcast was when the husband secretly took out a KARD loan to lend a large sum to his younger sister. The wife paid back the loan by canceling the educational insurance set aside for their daughter, but the husband showed no remorse, stating, 'Well, I paid it back eventually.' Dr. Oh Eun-young firmly pointed out the husband's behavior as a 'trust-breaking act,' saying, 'Trust between couples begins with communication.' Viewers also reacted in online communities and social media, saying, 'Oh Eun-young's direct hits in Marriage Hell are so impactful,' 'I can't stand how the husband is treating his family so poorly in Marriage Hell,' and 'I feel like we are seeing a prime example of a frustrating husband in Marriage Hell.'
# Shocking and angry at the 'daughter's slap' scene during the holiday violence incident
An incident that occurred during a holiday four years ago also brought shock. In front of the in-law family, the husband slapped the eldest daughter for showing displeasure at the rude behavior of the uncle. The wife lost her composure and even got into a physical altercation with the husband, while the daughter told the production team, 'I don't even want to see Dad's face anymore,' which made the studio solemn. Dr. Oh Eun-young emphasized, 'It cannot be justified to hurt a child for the sake of face,' and many viewers empathized by sending supportive messages to the daughter and wife, saying, 'I understand the wounds they must have suffered.'
# Not mediation but gossiping among in-laws... Dr. Oh Eun-young said, 'This is a counter textbook'
The husband went to meet his mother and sister at the wife's insistence, but instead of mediation, he engaged in gossip about her, shocking Dr. Oh Eun-young and the MCs. In the studio, there was even a comment that said, 'It looks like an educational video compiling only what the husband should not say and do when visiting in-laws.' Especially during the recording, the wife, who was watching observation footage, turned her body away and removed her earphones to avoid seeing the scenes with her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, highlighting how deep the accumulated emotional rifts were.
After the broadcast, viewers reacted by saying, 'Fortunately, the daughters are there next to their mom,' 'The shock and fear that the daughter must have experienced must be enormous,' and 'Even though it's someone else's problem, it makes me frustrated to watch.' Some viewers even expressed intense reactions saying, 'It seems like parting ways would make everyone happier,' 'The wife's outfit is outrageous; divorce is the answer,' and 'It's not just about relaying words but creating false allegations.'
In the later part of the broadcast, a preview was revealed featuring the wife, who was excessively scared and following the husband around. The wife said it felt like she 'stopped on that day two years ago', and as she shared her memories of that day, the studio was taken aback. The story of the couple who eventually sought Dr. Oh Eun-young after making various efforts for the wife's daily recovery will be aired on Monday night, 10:45 p.m. on the 14th.
