"Does a child need that kind of father?"... Seo Jang-hoon's sharp rebuke

According to the broadcast content of the JTBC variety program 'Divorce Camp', Seo Jang-hoon threw a sharp question at a wife who is maintaining a relationship despite suffering from her husband's physical assault and verbal abuse. When the wife provided the reason for continuing the relationship as "because he is the father of my child," Seo Jang-hoon strongly criticized her, saying, "I wish that excuse would stop."

Seo Jang-hoon focused on the negative impact such a situation would have on the child. He questioned, "Is a father who beats his mother and makes her like that truly necessary for the child?" and made remarks to the effect that "it is much better for a child's mental health to not have such fathers rather than having them."

Testimony of assault and suspicion of pathological jealousy... Patterns of repeated conflict

In the video, the wife gave a detailed statement regarding the physical assault she experienced from her husband. The wife claimed that her husband hit her ribs, mentioning a situation where she was bruised as a result. The wife explained a situation where the husband hit her, causing her to collapse to the floor and lie there for several tens of minutes. In response, the husband took the position that "I didn't hit her on purpose," stating it happened during a physical struggle. Furthermore, regarding the act of choking her, Seo Jang-hoon sternly pointed out, "Choking is hitting. It is assault."

The couple's conflict was not limited to physical violence. The husband continued his constant suspicion by mentioning the wife's past dating history, and the wife appealed that this was behavior like a "pathological jealous person." The husband stated that he had been suspicious of the wife based on the fact that past relationships had not been completely settled, and during this process, arguments such as demanding to check her mobile phone were repeated. The wife reported that if the husband is in a bad mood or has something he wants to say, he pours it out on her, and he uses explicit profanity that she has never heard before.

"Buying one shaved ice was everything"... Diverging memories and emotions

The wife cited the 'shaved ice' that the husband bought her during her pregnancy as the only memory that makes her maintain the relationship with him. She said that the fact that the husband, despite being annoyed at the time, eventually packed and brought her the shaved ice remains a precious memory. The wife said she considered that moment so meaningful that she even kept a video of the scene.

However, the husband reacted indifferently to that memory, saying, "That was only natural." In response, the cast members questioned, "Are you crying because buying one shaved ice remains such a beautiful memory?" expressing pity at the sight of her trying to maintain the relationship based on fragmentary kindness amidst violent situations.

Other cast members participating in the broadcast also took a stern stance regarding the husband's violent behavior, saying, "It cannot be justified by any words." In particular, regarding the explicit profanity and verbal abuse the husband poured out at the wife, they expressed shock, saying, "It is difficult to use words to that extent as an adult." The wife mentioned that the husband even used profanity in front of his mother-in-law, to which the cast members expressed absurdity, asking, "Is he the kind of person who apologizes?"
