Cha Tae-hyun said, "The 'national husband' and 'lover' labels are overblown... It's hard to understand my wife's language."
Actor Cha Tae-hyun honestly revealed the pressure of his 'national husband' image and anecdotes from his marriage.
On the SBS entertainment program 'Shoes Off, Dolsing 4 Men' aired on the 2nd, Cha Tae-hyun made a guest appearance.
When Tak Jae-hoon and Kim Jun-ho playfully asked, "Isn't it your turn, Cha Tae-hyun?" Cha Tae-hyun joked, "Is it okay if I'm not a divorced man?" He then added, "I don't have time for that. I need to adjust and divide the property, don't I?" which drew laughter.
Lee Sang-min said, "I went to register my marriage a while ago, and I saw a form for divorce registration as well. I'm just providing this information," to which Cha Tae-hyun responded, "That's really good information," bursting into laughter.
On that day, Cha Tae-hyun openly stated, "The images of 'national husband' and 'national first love' are really overblown." He said, "I have been very troubled. Whenever such discussions come up on the show, my wife says, 'You must be really having a hard time,' and laughs. He continued, "Everyone has different marriage stories, but I just married my first love. But the title 'national first love' is so burdensome," he confessed.
He also emphasized that the descriptor 'lover' is far from him. Cha Tae-hyun revealed, "There was a time when my wife was in the postpartum care center, and I heard it was said that I hadn't visited for three days. At that time, it was hard for outsiders to enter, and my wife directly told me, 'You don't need to come,' so I didn't go. Since it was my first marriage, I didn't know that I was supposed to go no matter what. Later, my wife got angry and said, 'I put up with it for two days, but are you really not coming?'"
Cha Tae-hyun expressed, "I felt wronged. I didn't go because my wife told me not to, but in fact, she was hoping I would come," and said, "My wife's language is so difficult. I wish she would just speak her mind honestly," which made everyone burst into laughter.
