An Iranian husband who once possessed assets close to 2 billion won revealed his story of having to live with his wife's parents in South Korea due to the aftermath of war.
On the episode of KBS Joy's 'Ask the Wise' broadcast on the 19th, an international couple with an 8-year age gap appeared to share their concerns about financial difficulties and living with the wife's family.
That day, the Korean wife stated, "My husband ran a travel agency in Thailand targeting Iranians, but the business became difficult when the war broke out," adding, "In the end, we moved in with my parents' home in Korea."
She continued, "Because my husband's income is insufficient while staying at my parents' place, he feels uncomfortable and watches his parents-in-law's reactions," sharing her worries.

In particular, it drew attention that the husband had once possessed substantial assets. The wife explained, "My husband was also involved in real estate business in Iran before the war. When the value of the Iranian rial was good at the time, his assets amounted to nearly 2 billion won," adding, "He owned buildings and apartments."
However, as the situation changed after the war, the couple is currently living at the wife's parents' home in Suncheon, North Jeolla Province. The husband is adapting to life in Korea by helping with farm work and making kimchi, but he expressed feeling burdened due to the lack of stable income.
The husband said, "I feel ashamed right now," adding, "In Iran, men earn money and women stay at home." He revealed his distress over the current situation where he cannot fulfill the economic role.
