'Dongchimi' featured singer Cho Young-nam mentioning his marriage life with his ex-wife, actress Yoon Yeo-jeong.

'Sokpuri Show Dongchimi' (hereinafter 'Dongchimi'), which aired on the 16th as an MBN variety program, was specially prepared for its 700th episode, with Cho Young-nam, Nam Jin, and Seol Wundo appearing as guests.

'My mother is a long-time fan of Nam Jin, and her lifelong wish was to have a son-in-law like him. But the son-in-law I brought home was of the Cho Young-nam style. Even 40 years after the marriage, my mother still talks about Nam Jin,' a 60-year-old viewer shared their story.

'MC Kim Yong-man asked Seol Wundo, "As a husband, do you think the Cho Young-nam style is that bad?" Seol Wundo replied, "As a junior, judging objectively, I am the Nam Jin senior style. (With Cho Young-nam) there is no guarantee that a couple will stay together for a long time. He is free-spirited," eliciting laughter.

'Cho Young-nam said, "Unlike what you might think, we lived together for 13 years and never had a single fight. We never even had a verbal argument. We lived well. That woman had a broad understanding. She understood and accepted everything. There was never any discord," regarding his marriage life with Yoon Yeo-jeong.

'Then MC Lee Hyun asked Nam Jin and Cho Young-nam, "Both of you have daughters. If your daughter brought home a potential son-in-law, which style would you prefer, Cho Young-nam or Nam Jin?"

'Nam Jin replied, "Speaking as a father, not a singer, I want a son-in-law who is diligent and loves only one woman. I don't want anything complicated."

'Cho Young-nam explained, "I told my daughter she must meet someone like me. It's not gaslighting; there must be someone who can completely understand you and love you until the end, and that someone is like me."

'Nam Jin retorted, "You're telling her to divorce? She shouldn't divorce; she should live with one woman. If she's complicated like you, that won't work," to which Cho Young-nam countered, "I don't feel like I'm divorced."

'Meanwhile, Cho Young-nam married actress Yoon Yeo-jeong in 1974 and had two sons. They later divorced in 1987. He remarried in 1995 to a non-celebrity woman 18 years his junior, but that marriage also ended in divorce.
