'Househusband 2' made viewers uncomfortable with its forced, B-grade sitcom-style directing.

In the episode aired on the 19th on KBS 2TV's 'Househusband 2', Park Seo-jin's mother left her home after a warm phone call with a mysterious Mr. Jang and wearing heavy makeup. Park Seo-jin suspected infidelity, saying, "Mom was speaking in a Seoul accent. Who was she talking to that made her act so pretentiously?"

However, Park Seo-jin's father refused to budge, insisting he trusted his wife. Park Seo-jin and his younger sister Park Hyo-jeong pointed out, "Do you really trust Mom? A dam can collapse from carelessness. People don't suddenly do things they've never done before without a reason."

In response, Park Seo-jin's father admitted honestly, "At first I trusted my wife, but with everyone constantly poking at me from the side, I started to doubt. I couldn't keep my head clear. That made me irritated. Since she wouldn't answer her phone, I began to feel suspicious."

Park Seo-jin's younger sister suggested they follow their mother. The family split up to locate her and trailed her as she walked down an alley. When their mother entered a mysterious building, Park Seo-jin advised his father, "Stay calm. Anything could happen."

The three of them raided the place where their mother had entered. Especially when Park Seo-jin's father saw his wife with an unfamiliar young man, he angrily shouted, "What are you doing?" It turned out that Mr. Jang was a park golf instructor.

Eventually, Park Seo-jin's father practiced golf together with his son so they could play alongside his wife the next day. The couple then went to the course and competed against their cousins and another park golf couple.

Aired since 2016, 'Househusband' claims to be observational reality TV but has often faced criticism from viewers for its contrived episodes. Despite the program's title suggesting it documents the daily lives of men who do housework, it has been condemned for its sensational and artificial storylines.

Today's broadcast was nothing short of a farce. The premise of suspecting the mother of infidelity was childish, and the setup of family members following their mother through a narrow alley was absurd. Setting up cameras in advance at the golf practice range before having Park Seo-jin's father stage a raid was more like a comedy sketch.

While the intention behind Park Seo-jin's parents learning golf in their later years to exercise together was good, the directing amounted to nothing more or less than pure comedy.
