Ji Yeon-soo and Eli, the reason they ended 10 years of marriage: "Conflicts with in-laws and feelings of alienation"

The specific causes of conflict that led Ji Yeon-soo and Eli to end their 10-year marriage have been revealed. In a video from TV CHOSUN's 'We Got Divorced 2', the couple shared the hidden side of their marriage and the psychological background that led to their divorce.

"I was treated like a transparent human being" The alienation and conflict experienced by Ji Yeon-soo

In the video, Ji Yeon-soo expressed the conflicts she experienced with her in-laws during her life in the United States and the sense of isolation she felt in the process. Ji Yeon-soo mentioned that the conditions presented by the in-laws at the time of moving to the United States had changed and expressed her disappointment regarding that process. In particular, she emphasized that while living with the in-laws, they treated her like a 'transparent human being'.

Ji Yeon-soo stated that she was not respected as a family member while living with her in-laws. She conveyed the loneliness she felt in situations where no one would answer even when she spoke, saying, "Whether I was in the living room or at the dining table, no one treated me as anything other than a transparent human being." Additionally, the difference in stance between her and her husband Eli was revealed in the process of how conflicts with the in-laws led to marital fights.

"I was an ATM and a maid" The explosion of 10 years of resentment

Ji Yeon-soo expressed strong rejection toward the role she played within the family during her marriage. She expressed her feelings of being used economically and emotionally, describing herself among the in-laws as "an ATM, an emotional trash can, a toilet, an AI robot, and a maid."

In particular, Ji Yeon-soo claimed that a significant portion of the causes of marital fights during her marriage stemmed from problems with her in-laws. She pointed out that her husband Eli did not sufficiently play a mediating role, saying, "95% of the reasons we fought during our marriage were related to my mother (mother-in-law)." Ji Yeon-soo appealed the difficulties she faced while living with her mother-in-law while her husband was in Japan, questioning why she had to handle all the situations of the in-laws when she was not even a member of that family.

Issues of etiquette during the divorce process and the emotions left behind

Comments continued regarding the process after the decision to divorce. Ji Yeon-soo mentioned that her husband Eli did not show up at the courtroom on the day of the divorce trial, expressing regret that it was not polite to a person she had lived with for nearly 10 years.

Finally, Ji Yeon-soo showed a strong defensive mechanism regarding the criticism directed at her parents. She expressed her determination to protect her own family now, leaving behind the times when she denied her own parents or tried to prevent conflicts between both sides to maintain her marriage, saying, "Now I will be on my mother's side."
