Lee Yu-ri, who appeared in ‘High School Mom and Dad 3’, reveals her current situation and inner thoughts, saying, “I want to get a divorce for the sake of my son.” She has been separated from her husband Park Jae-wook for 10 months.
In the MBN entertainment program ‘High School Mom and Dad 5’ airing on the 4th, Park Jae-wook, the husband of ‘High School Mom’ Lee Yu-ri from season 3, appears in the studio for the first time in 1 year and 7 months to reveal that he is facing a divorce crisis with his wife.
On this day, Park Jae-wook confesses to the studio cast, “My wife has run away with our son and is currently demanding a divorce. However, I want to keep the family together for the sake of our son.” He explains the reason for their separation, saying, “I was furious because my wife went out and didn’t take care of our son’s pick-up time. We had a fight that day, and the next day, my wife left home with our son.”
Park Jae-wook, who says, “I haven’t seen my wife or son for 10 months,” is currently living at a close friend’s house for the past 3 months instead of his own home. He shares, “It’s too hard to stay in a house where my wife and child’s traces remain, so I’ve been living at my friend’s house for about 3 months on his recommendation.”
A little later, when Park Jae-wook returns to his friend’s house, he responds to the question, “Have you eaten?” with, “I haven’t eaten a single meal all day,” and then drinks alcohol. A friend advises him, “Take care of your health. After that day, I thought I would never see you again,” which raises questions among the studio cast. Park Jae-wook then reveals, “Actually, after my wife left, I made a wrong choice,” shocking everyone.
In the midst of this conflict, the production team contacts Lee Yu-ri to hear her side. After some difficulty, Lee Yu-ri agrees to an interview, stating, “I want to divorce my husband, but it’s hard to meet him directly, so I came to convey my thoughts through the production team.” She continues, “Even after appearing in ‘High School Mom and Dad 3’, my husband didn’t change and didn’t even make an effort,” and presents a conflicting claim about the reason for their separation, saying, “I always made sure to pick up our son.”
Above all, Lee Yu-ri reveals, “The trust and faith were broken because of my husband’s actions on the day we had a fight,” adding, “Our son is scared of adult men because of the shock from that day,” delivering a second shock. Seo Jang-hoon, who was listening to Lee Yu-ri, is left speechless in surprise and eventually scolds Park Jae-wook, saying, “You did the most cowardly act a man can do.”
With Lee Yu-ri firmly stating, “I want to get a divorce for the sake of our son,” and Park Jae-wook insisting, “I want to keep the family together for our son,” it remains to be seen whether their opposing positions can be reconciled in the episode of ‘High School Mom and Dad 5’ airing on the 4th at 10:20 PM.
