Hwanhee's mother reveals the reason she chose to divorce in her twilight years.
On the 23rd, the second episode of KBS 2TV's variety program "Men Who Cook Season 2" (hereinafter "Living Man") will unfold the second part of Hwanhee and his mother's first-ever trip to Jeju.
On the second day of the trip, Hwanhee visits an amusement park with his mother. For the first time in her life, his mother rides the Viking and rail sleds, rejoicing like a child. In contrast, Hwanhee appears terrified in front of the rides.
The joyful moment is brief; his mother suddenly tears up as she recalls her late mother from her maiden family. "Coming to Jeju Island makes me think of my late mother so much. It's a lingering regret that I never brought her to a place like this," she shares her inner thoughts. Hwanhee reveals that he planned this trip to comfort his mother, who had been depressed after his grandmother passed away, moving the studio audience to tears.
Especially, this broadcast will reveal for the first time the story behind Hwanhee's father. After much deliberation, his mother confesses the shocking fact that she had to bear a twilight divorce alone without telling her children, saying, "You know, I resolved something without telling you," and "It's been two years since we divorced."
What is the real reason that a mother who lived her whole life dedicating herself to her family ultimately decided to divorce in her twilight years? And what was the heartwarming words of comfort Hwanhee offered to his mother, who apologized to her children saying, "I didn't want to torment you anymore"? Tune in to the broadcast at 9:20 PM today.
