Broadcaster Seo Jang-hoon suggested divorce to his old-fashioned couple wife.
On the 9th, the last couple's story of the 7th season was revealed on JTBC’s ‘Divorce Reflection Camp’.
On that day, the husband of the old-fashioned couple said, “I applied for ‘Divorce Reflection Camp’. I have many flaws. I felt like I would get divorced if I continued living like this, so I wrote the application form for ‘Divorce Reflection Camp’ as if I were writing a letter of reflection.”
The old-fashioned couple had an age gap, with the husband being older by a decade. The wife mentioned, “My husband often said, ‘You have to be young to follow and listen.’”
It turned out that the husband had conditions for his desired spouse before marriage. The conditions included a woman who works part-time, a woman who lives far from her home, a woman from a less affluent family, a woman 15 years younger, and a woman with strong energy and spirit.
The husband stated, “I dated a lot to prepare for marriage. I never dated for more than a year. If it went over a year, I couldn’t meet another woman,” which surprised everyone. Upon hearing this, Seo Jang-hoon remarked, “He has his own nonsensical philosophy. He just happened to meet someone who fits those conditions.”
The husband enjoyed his hobbies while neglecting parenting. He believed that household chores were entirely the wife's responsibility, saying, “I thought it was right for the wife to handle household chores perfectly while I handled outside work perfectly. After marriage, my nickname was ‘Joseon Dynasty old man.’”
Moreover, the husband not only failed to understand his wife, who had recently given birth, but also scolded her with nagging. Seo Jang-hoon pointed out, “Isn’t the reason he kept looking for someone 15 years younger to gaslight her into listening to him? Who would listen to him if the age difference wasn’t that significant?”
Seo Jang-hoon told the wife, “You came to ‘Divorce Reflection Camp’ well. I don’t know how much money your husband has, but think carefully. Aren’t you still young? Take all the assets, including child support. Why are you living like this?”
