'The husband of the 'Dongajul couple,' who brought sorrow on 'Oh Eun-young Report - Marriage Hell,' has finally been diagnosed with his illness after three years.

The 178th episode of MBC's "Oh Eun-young Report - Marriage Hell," which aired on the afternoon of the 27th, was structured as Part 1 of an 'After Special' that returned after more than a year.

In today's broadcast, the daily lives of three couples were revealed following changes after Oh Eun-yeong (Dr.)'s "Healing Report." These included the 'Pseudo-family couple,' who had lost trust in each other due to conflicts over living expenses; the 'Dongajul couple,' who faced a crisis caused by an unknown illness and domestic violence; and the 'Negasu couple,' who were shocked by the husband's severe adult ADHD symptoms.

First, we revisited the 'Pseudo-family couple' who appeared in January. The wife, who had settled in South Korea after escaping North Korea, and the husband, who carried the pain of losing his spouse, experienced intense conflict over living expenses and mutual suspicion.

At that time, the wife was furious because her husband did not provide the agreed-upon 1 million won for living expenses on time, while the husband suspected that his wife had approached him only for money. In response, Oh Eun-yeong (Dr.) advised the husband to set up automatic transfers for living expenses on a fixed date each month and to share even small daily details with his wife.

The husband reportedly began setting up automatic transfers for living expenses the day after filming, drawing attention. The production team personally verified the wife's bank account records and confirmed that living expenses were deposited without a single delay.

The wife also appeared much warmer, and the two were gradually becoming a real family by video-calling each other's children and checking on their health and well-being. When the husband revisited their first date location, he expressed satisfaction with his changed life, saying, "I feel like we're living well. My heart feels much more at ease."

Updates on the 'Dongajul couple' were also revealed. After collapsing in 2023, the husband experienced symptoms such as body stiffness and hand tremors, but despite visiting multiple hospitals over three years, he could not find a definitive diagnosis.

Even during funeral services and marital arguments, he found himself laughing involuntarily, and he lost his balance and fell several times a day. The wife, who had shouldered the burden of medical expenses, livelihood, and household duties alone, grew exhausted by her husband's silence and avoidance. Her son also revealed that his father had beaten his mother while drunk, causing shock.

After the broadcast, the husband was diagnosed with Parkinson's syndrome as Oh Eun-yeong (Dr.) had predicted. The wife shed tears, saying, "It's a disease where the thread could snap at any moment. I wish my husband would be a little more like a friend. If we were to be greedy, I'd want us to stay together for five or ten more years."

Although the husband's illness was still progressing, their daily life had changed significantly. The wife prepared healthy meals for him and carefully monitored his unstable posture. The husband, who used to spend most of his time in front of the TV, began walking exercises, showing his will to live.

The husband's expressions also changed. For the first time in 17 years of marriage, he gave his wife a cake and flowers on her birthday and conveyed his feelings with "I love you, I'm sorry, thank you." His relationship with his son was also recovering. The son replied, "The wounds have already healed completely."

The husband promised never to lay a hand on his family again and vowed, "I want to be a good husband and a good father." In response, the wife said, "The lifeline I grabbed out of desperation seems to have become a sacred rope for me," expressing her gratitude toward "Oh Eun-young Report - Marriage Hell."

We also revisited the 'Negasu couple.' At the time of the broadcast, the husband was confident in his driving skills despite frequently speeding, running red lights, and driving while drowsy. He showed no reaction even when his wife, who had suffered from a brain tumor, fell right in front of him, which sparked anger.

His obsession with making gochujang (Korean chili paste) late at night without prioritizing tasks also surprised everyone. In response, Oh Eun-yeong (Dr.) diagnosed him at the time as showing the most severe adult ADHD symptoms among all participating couples.

Six months later, the husband began checking his to-do list priorities through notes and was handling household chores and cleanup on his own. He was also seen rushing to check on his wife's condition immediately after she fell.

Changes were also observed in his dangerous driving habits. During long-distance trips, the wife took the wheel, and unlike before, the husband carefully checked traffic signals. The wife, who had taken on numerous side jobs to repay debts, started running a restaurant as advised by Oh Eun-yeong (Dr.) and decided to continue her singing activities within reasonable limits.

Part 2 of the 'After Special' will air at 9 p.m. on August 3.
