Marriage Hell wife hears ‘Mother’ as money fight turns into family

Changes Started by Automatic Living Expense Transfers

The 'quasi-family couple,' who experienced intense conflict over 1 million won in living expenses this past January, showed a changed appearance six months later. MBC's 'Oh Eun Young’s Report Marriage Hell' shared the couple's current status through an 'After Special' broadcast on the 27th.

At the time, the wife experienced conflict, claiming the husband did not provide the promised living expenses on time. For the wife, a professional of 13 years, this amount was more than just a figure; it signified being respected as a family member. Dr. Oh Eun Young intervened by advising the husband to set up an automatic transfer for the living expenses on a fixed date every month and advising the wife to reduce her harsh language.

In fact, the wife's bank statements confirmed records of automatic transfers sent by the husband on the fixed date every month. The husband implemented the automatic transfer immediately starting the day after the broadcast. Even while working, the husband communicated with his wife by sending phone calls or meal authentication shots, and he even gifted her a luxury bag.

"I Was Called Mother": From Strangers to Family

The biggest change appeared in the relationship between the husband's children and the wife. In the past, conflicts ran deep as the husband hid matters related to the children from the wife, but currently, the wife has become close enough to have video calls with the husband's daughters without hesitation.

The wife revealed, "One day, the husband's daughter called me 'Mother' for the first time," noting that at that moment, her sense of responsibility as a family member grew. The sisters-in-law, who had misunderstood the wife in the past, also began to open their hearts following the broadcast.

The two revisited Suseungdae, the location of their first date. The sight of the two joking with each other and taking photos, just like during their dating days, made one forget the sharp conflicts of this past January.
