'Oh Eun-young Report - Marriage Hell' revealed the true reason behind the 'top-priority couple' who have stopped communicating for a year.

In the 184th episode of MBC's 'Oh Eun-young Report - Marriage Hell' (hereinafter 'Marriage Hell'), broadcast on the 7th, a couple in their seventh year of marriage raising four sons appeared. The husband reported that he had lived constantly walking on eggshells under his wife's silence and even suffered from severe depression. The wife countered that she stopped speaking because any conversation with her husband ended in an argument. Additionally, stories were revealed about economic conflicts surrounding the husband's immersion in exercise and hobbies, as well as the eldest child living away from the family, unveiling the complex circumstances behind the couple's communication breakdown.

In the observation footage, the couple never exchanged even a single glance despite being in the same space. Even when the husband initiated conversation, the wife gave only brief replies, and the silence lasted up to two weeks. The husband confessed that he felt ignored without knowing what he had done wrong. After suffering from indigestion and sleep disorders, he was diagnosed with severe depression and took medication for over two years. He overcame his depression by running 10 kilometers every day. On the other hand, the wife admitted that she is most afraid when her husband says, "Let's talk," explaining that the continuous questions felt like attacks.

In particular, it raised curiosity that while the wife naturally conversed with members at her Pilates center, she specifically said, "My words get stuck in my throat" only in front of her husband. Observing this, Oh Eun-yeong (Dr.) noted that the wife's social anxiety is very high and mentioned 'selective mutism.' When required to speak or suddenly become nervous, the muscles used for speaking can stiffen along with institutional investors. Upon hearing that she was not intentionally staying silent out of disregard or dislike for her husband, the wife could not hide her surprise, stating it was a fact she had never known before. The husband also said, "All the feelings I experienced are now explained," and came to understand his wife belatedly.

However, the couple's conflict extended beyond communication issues. The husband, who started exercising to overcome depression, was recently even shooting body profile photos and managing himself meticulously. Yet, the wife pointed out that her husband is "number one in his own life," noting that he would take out chicken breast whenever there was time, even at kids' cafes, and tried to postpone his mother's birthday gathering due to dietary reasons. As details emerged about spending 3 million won on sneakers, approximately 0.1 billion won on an aquarium, and 3 million won on a refrigerator dedicated solely to chicken breast, the husband responded with agitation, pulling out one by one the security deposits for the house and Pilates center he had covered, as well as expensive gifts.

Furthermore, the wife revealed an incident in which her husband's driver's license was revoked due to drunk driving in the past, resulting in a fine of about 9 million won. With business failures and debts owed to acquaintances added up, his debt neared 1 million won, forcing him to sell even an apartment he had won through housing subscription. However, the husband countered that the sitter costs incurred while his wife operated a Pilates center that was not profitable were also included in the debt and urged her not to place all responsibility on him alone. In response, Oh Eun-yeong (Dr.) drew a line stating that the husband is currently neither depressed nor in a state of burnout, pointing out that his efforts are directed only toward himself rather than his family.

Towards the end of the broadcast, at 3 a.m. when everyone was asleep, the eldest child, who had not appeared throughout the observation footage, cautiously opened the door and entered. Seeing on screen the eldest child, who lives avoiding the family and sends messages to the wife whenever her husband returns from work, the wife began to cry, while the husband said, "It seems we can't help that we're not related by blood," foreshadowing yet another conflict.
