Former baseball player Choi Jun-seok reveals his inner thoughts after being scammed for 2 billion won and giving up on the path of a professional baseball coach due to the aftermath. On the 7th episode of MBN’s ‘Considering Divorce Once’ airing at 10 p.m. on the 25th, Choi Jun-seok, who is walking on thin ice in the midst of a negative household financial situation, and the precarious daily life of the Ahn Hyo-in couple are revealed in earnest.
On this day, Choi Jun-seok goes out to eat with his wife for brunch and then heads to the baseball classroom he operates. He reveals, “I’m currently running it alone, and the income is not stable,” and diligently cleans the baseball lesson hall alone. While preparing for the lesson, Choi Jun-seok sadly confesses, “After retiring as a player, I wanted to walk the path of a professional baseball coach or manager, but I ended up giving up on what I wanted to do because I had to pay off debts (from the scam incident).”
Ahn Hyo-in also spends busy hours picking up their two children and working part-time jobs. In particular, despite feeling uncomfortable after arguing with her husband, Ahn Hyo-in shows a gentle smile to the children without revealing any signs of discomfort, and works diligently at a salad shop without showing any signs of exhaustion. Ahn Hyo-in comments, “The children’s education costs are not insignificant, so I am working part-time,” and adds, “I feel like I haven’t done anything I haven’t done before in Jinhae (current residence).”
Watching this in the studio, MC Oh Yoon-ah’s eyes turn red as she remarks, “You have to treat your wife well when she works tirelessly like that,” pointing out Choi Jun-seok, while Kim Yong-man subtly notes, “It seems like Jun-seok doesn’t easily waver no matter what others say.” On the other hand, Lee Hye-jeong unexpectedly comments, “But your eye movements have increased and improved compared to last week,” making everyone burst into laughter.
Fortunately, Choi Jun-seok continues to sweat beads late into the night while continuing baseball lessons, and then retorts, “One-on-one lessons require a lot more talking than I thought. So, when I’m at home, I just want to rest without talking.” Before her husband returns home, Ahn Hyo-in prepares dinner for their two children, from seaweed soup to stir-fried pork, and quietly complains, “Ah, it’s tiring,” then surprises everyone by pouring something into a tumbler and drinking it.
Choi Jun-seok also remarks, “I’ve never seen my wife in that state before,” causing a stir, and as interest in Choi Jun-seok and Ahn Hyo-in’s real daily life, where they walk on thin ice every day regarding household finances, grows, people wonder what Ahn Hyo-in’s stress relief method is.
Meanwhile, ‘Considering Divorce Once’ received attention from the first regular broadcast on the 18th, recording the highest audience rating of 3% in Bundang, and will air its 7th episode at 10 p.m. on the 25th.
