Woman stays with unfaithful husband following parents' final will

Kim Su-hyeon revealed on the YouTube channel 'Dongchimi' on the 25th that she continues to care for her husband despite his lifelong infidelity and the loss of two houses in Sinsa-dong, Gangnam. She remains by his side because her late parents requested in their final will that she forgive Kim Seogang.

The story of a woman who has remained by the side of a husband who spent his entire life being unfaithful was revealed. In a broadcast on the YouTube channel 'Dongchimi' on the 25th, the story of Kim Su-hyeon, who suffered due to her husband's lifelong infidelity but ultimately could not leave him, was discussed.

"I could tell by the smell"... Husband's infidelity and disappearing traces

Kim Su-hyeon explained the moment she instinctively sensed her husband's infidelity through "smell." She stated that when her husband entered the front door, she could sense a specific "manly smell" that would not wash away even after he showered. While he was being unfaithful, situations where she would receive calls in the middle of the night from another woman asking, "What should I do?" were repeated.

A decisive turning point occurred in 1990, the day their son left to study in the United States. The husband rushed to depart under the pretext of the son's study abroad, and Kim later felt her husband's condition was different than usual during phone calls with their son. Upon hearing that her husband had been hospitalized with a cerebral infarction, Kim visited the hospital and encountered his mistress there. However, both the husband and the mistress had already disappeared from the hospital.

The husband owned two houses in Sinsa-dong, Gangnam, but it was revealed that he had disposed of all those houses during his affair. Unable to contain her anger, Kim went to the mistress's house and broke items. In response, the mistress showed an audacious attitude by sending a certification of contents to Kim, but it was reported that the situation at the time was a complex conflict involving not just Kim, but also personnel from the husband's side.

Parents' final will and frozen time

The background of why Kim, who suffered from migraines and loss of energy due to extreme stress, eventually stayed by her husband's side was her parents' last will. After the husband collapsed due to his illness, Kim's parents, just before passing away, left words saying, "Please forgive Kim Seogang because he is pitiful and take good care of him." Kim expressed her feelings that she could not go against her parents' wishes, describing the will as something "untranslatable."

Currently, Kim is caring for her husband, who has physical difficulties. The discrepancy between her husband's past image when he enjoyed infidelity and his current state led to various discussions among the cast members. While Kim expressed longing for how he was when he was healthy, she suggested that her current role is simply to stay by his side.

"99% of men want to cheat"... Debate on infidelity

As the story was shared, a heated debate regarding the tendencies of men toward infidelity ensued among the cast members. One cast member drew attention by claiming, "99.99% of men cheat," arguing that those who do not only include those with a sense of morality, those without economic capability, or those whose relationships are too boring.

In response, a male cast member corrected the opinion, stating, "It is not that 99% of men cheat, but that 99% of men want to cheat." Regarding the motivation for infidelity, an analysis was presented that it is not about seeking "better value" but seeking "different value." That is, the act of seeking new stimulation not found in a spouse leads to infidelity.

Furthermore, a debate broke out regarding the correlation between economic capability and infidelity. Various perspectives on infidelity clashed as the conversation continued, with opinions suggesting that while capable men actively engage in infidelity, they are sometimes passively placed in situations of infidelity by capable women.
