Choi Go-gi, who found 'X's private life,' presents a more mature post-divorce life.
In episode 5 of TV CHOSUN's divorcees' position-sorting reality show 'X's private life,' which airs at 10 p.m. on the 14th, Yu Kkaet-ip (Yu Ye-rin), seven years divorced, appears in the studio, and a scene is revealed in which she watches her ex-husband Choi Go-gi (Choi Beom-gyu)'s post-divorce daily life and bursts into tears.
When Choi Go-gi, who appeared in the VCR that day, talked about the divorce process, MC Kim Gu Ra empathized as an 'experienced person,' saying, "Divorce stress ranks in the top 1 or 2 on the stress list." Choi Go-gi then calmly said of his life as a single dad, "Now I feel like I live for my daughter Sol-ip."
Early in the morning, he ties the hair of Sol-ip, who is going to school, himself, saying, "Because I have to raise a girl alone, I bought a wig and practiced," and his tender touch adds to the poignancy. After sending his daughter to school, he said, "I got a forklift license a year ago," and conveyed his efforts toward a new life.
He explained, "For me, parenting is the top priority, so I chose forklift work because it allows good time allocation," and revealed, "My parents divorced when I was 12, and I spent a lot of time alone at home. I didn't want to leave my child like that," which moved the audience. Watching this, Yu Kkaet-ip said, "(Choi Go-gi) seems to have grown," and MC Jang Yoon Jeong and Jung Kyung Mi also said, "He is a thoughtful and decent man."
Later, Choi Go-gi visits a construction site, takes a forklift test, and talks with the site foreman. When the foreman asked, "Are you married?" Choi Go-gi answered, "I'm raising my child alone after divorce," and the foreman formed a rapport, saying, "Same as me!" MC Kim Gu Ra, seeing this, quipped, "It's a divorce network! You can't ignore school ties, regional ties, and divorce ties," raising the sense of intimacy and drawing laughter. The foreman advised, "Think of your daughter, put your pride aside, and work," and Choi Go-gi responded, "That's the most important thing," showing a firmer side.
His ex-wife Yu Kkaet-ip finally burst into tears and honestly confessed, "He's different from how he used to be…. Seeing him like that makes my feelings complicated."
