"Mom, why did you go to heaven?"... The first child of the 'PUBG couple'

The story of the 'PUBG Couple,' who gathered people to die for them in a game for his wife who passed away after a battle with cancer, continued. The story of the husband, who visited the charnel house where his wife's ashes are enshrined with their two children about a month after her passing, was revealed.

The story of this family, which touched the hearts of the nation last May, was once again highlighted through MBC's 'Dr. Oh Eun-young's Report - Again, Love After That.' It captured the reality of the wife, whose condition worsened after a sudden terminal stomach cancer diagnosis, and the husband, who was left to care for their five-year-old first child and one-year-old second child alone.

The first child's tears at the charnel house

The path to meeting Mom for the first time after her passing. The first child, who thought they were heading to the hospital because they were told they were going to see Mom, could not hide their confusion upon arriving at the unfamiliar charnel house. The child felt anxious in the strange environment, asking, "Are we at our hospital?" and "Let's go to the hospital quickly. This isn't Mom's hospital."

The moment they faced the wife's photo behind the glass, the first child burst into tears in their father's arms, saying, "Mom, why did you go to heaven? What am I going to do without Mom? I miss Mom." The husband's eyes welled up as he said, "It felt like my heart was tearing apart. I felt like I was giving the child another form of pain."

A funeral without a mourning hall due to financial hardship, standing as a chief mourner again after 35 days

Due to the extreme financial hardship experienced during the wife's illness, the couple could not hold a proper funeral when she passed away. Because of their economic situation, they ultimately had to say goodbye to her with a funeral without a mourning hall. Only 35 days after she left, the husband put on mourning clothes again and stood as the chief mourner to mark his wife's 31st birthday.

The husband confessed that not being able to hold a normal funeral remained a burden on his heart, saying, "It didn't feel like I had truly sent her away. I thought I had cried enough, but the sadness wouldn't empty out." Amidst the condolences offered by the mourners gathered to see her off, the husband finally found a clue to soothe his grief. He said, "It was the first time I saw faces and had so many people hold my hands. I realized that this is how one forgets sadness through people."

Having his first proper meal since his wife's passing, the husband sobbed while eating at the funeral hall, saying, "Why is it so delicious, even though it feels shameless?"

A final promise in front of the portrait, "I'll wait until I see my grandchildren"

After completing all the procedures, the husband made a final promise in front of his wife's portrait. He promised a reunion with her, saying, "I'll eat well now, raise the children well, and wait for you there until I see my grandchildren." He then delivered his final farewell: "Thank you. And I was happy. Sleep well."

Their story will be broadcast on MBC's 'Dr. Oh Eun-young's Report - Again, Love After That' on the 20th at 9 PM.
