The wife of the 'PUBG couple,' who had been diagnosed with stage 4 stomach cancer and was undergoing treatment, has passed away.

In the the 18th broadcast of MBC's 'Oh Eun-young Report–Again, Love,' the story of the 'PUBG couple' was revealed, featuring a husband who stayed by his wife's side until the end after she was diagnosed with stage 4 stomach cancer.

The 'PUBG couple' had previously become a major topic on the online platform ON. To support his terminally ill wife who loved games, the husband recruited players to be 'users who would intentionally get killed for her,' creating a remarkable scene where countless gamers voluntarily participated in the event, which was also featured in news reports.

The 'PUBG couple' had even prepared a document to give up life-sustaining treatment, but after completing the game event, the wife's single word, "I want to live," led them to continue treatment.

The husband recalled the time when his wife received the cancer diagnosis. She complained of abdominal pain and went to the emergency room, where she was suddenly diagnosed with stage 4 stomach cancer. By then, 80% of her colon had already necrotized, and the cancer had spread throughout her entire peritoneum, leaving her organs hardened.

This unexpected tragedy occurred without any special warning signs, just five years into their marriage and seven months after the birth of their second child. Despite receiving narcotic painkillers for three months, the wife suffered from severe pain and lived a life where she could only moisten her mouth with water.

The husband's desperate daily life was also revealed. After taking parental leave, he was caring for his five-year-old first child and one-year-old second child alone while also managing his wife's nursing care. After putting the children to sleep, the husband would head to the hospital every night, staying awake all night while checking on the children via 'home cam.'

Returning home after 2 a.m., the husband would have his first meal of instant rice and kimchi in the dark kitchen with the lights off. Seeing the husband eating alone while sobbing and crying, Oh Eun-yeong (Dr.) and the MCs were moved to tears.

Even in such extreme circumstances, the husband applied lip gloss to his wife's lips and never forgot to express his love, offering a deep resonance of true love to living rooms across the country.

The eldest child's reaction to feeling the mother's absence also touched the viewers' tear ducts. Stories were shared of the child asking, "When is Mom coming back?" and struggling after hearing friends say, "You don't have a mom," turning the studio into a sea of tears.

On this day, the wife conveyed through a video letter, "I'm sorry for making you wait so long, Mom. When I go, let's eat delicious food and visit many fun places. I love you." In response, the husband also expressed his heartfelt wish to his wife, "Let's live a normal life. Hold on, please," before breaking down in tears.

Oh Eun-yeong (Dr.) expressed concern about the husband's condition. "There is no provision for taking care of himself in the husband's routine. His health is worrying. I'm worried this is not what the wife would want."

Continuing, she shared her own experience of battling cancer, saying, "When I heard the cancer diagnosis, all I could think about was my children. I wanted to live one more day. I hope you spend today well." She offered words of comfort.

The news shared at the end of the broadcast moved viewers to tears once again. Around the time of the wife's 31st birthday, she passed away along with the 117th days of memories that her husband had protected with all his heart. Their love, which never let go of each other even in despair, left a deep impression and lingering emotion on the viewers.

Meanwhile, the 'Again, Love' special is the 2026 edition of the 'Love' series, presented by the current affairs and documentary division of the past 'Human Documentary Love' that once moved the entire nation, who have once again joined forces. It depicts stories of families who do not let go of each other's hands even in unexpected tragedies and will be broadcast in a total of two episodes. Part 2 will air on the 25th at 9 p.m.
