Love in the Time of Scales: Seo Jang-hoon’s Shocking Weight Check Demand Sparks Denial and Debate
Newlywed Husband’s Unyielding Stubbornness Leaves Lawyer and Wife Shocked
A recent episode of JTBC’s ‘Divorce Consideration Camp’ featured a newlywed couple, Gosan, whose husband’s unyielding stubbornness left both the lawyer and his wife shocked.
The episode showed the final adjustment of the newlywed couple, where the lawyer on the wife’s side, Hwang Bo-ra, requested that the husband refrain from checking his wife’s weight in the morning or making suggestive comments when eating. However, the lawyer on the husband’s side, Go San, insisted that his wife needed to manage her weight, citing that she had lost a lot of weight and would be stressed if she gained it back.

The husband, Gosan, further insisted that his wife needed to be checked every two days, claiming that if she went on a diet, her brain would break down, and she would end up eating excessively without realizing it. The wife’s lawyer countered that she was not overeating or overweight, but the husband remained unyielding.
The court intervened, stating that there was no narrowing of opinions and that if the couple went to court, they could end up getting a divorce. The court advised them to think about realistic things, but the husband remained stubborn.

The wife claimed custody of their two children, but the husband said he would give up custody and parental rights if the children were brought to Bora. He also offered to pay 2.5 million won per month in child support. However, the wife’s lawyer revealed that the husband had no intention of getting a divorce and would not give up, even if it meant starting to learn English and weights the next day.
The wife’s lawyer asked if she had ever gained a lot of weight suddenly, and she revealed that she had gained 20 kg during her first pregnancy. However, the husband corrected her, saying she had gained exactly 25 kg, which was above the normal range. The lawyer was shocked, but the husband continued to force his wife to memorize English words and run, without giving in to his stubbornness.
