Seo Jang-hoon gave strong advice to a husband who has a drinking problem.

On the 26th, the story of the ‘shuttle couple’, a husband who drinks all day and a wife who runs errands for him all day, was revealed on JTBC‘s ’Divorce Consideration Camp‘.

While watching the couple’s household investigation video, Seo Jang-hoon strongly advised the husband who drinks 360 days out of the year, saying, “You‘re living a life with a limited time. You don’t have much time left,” expressing his concerns about alcoholism. However, in another video of the couple, the wife showed contradictory behavior of offering her husband a drink, which shocked everyone. The wife, who lost her parents at a young age and was deeply hurt, revealed that she kept offering him a drink because her husband praised her when she ran errands for him.

After that, the couple received couples counseling as their first solution. When the husband thought that his wife‘s depression was the cause of his drinking, counselor Lee Ho-sun pointed out that he had failed to take care of his children, saying, “My husband also chose to drink.” In addition, the husband, who was diagnosed with alcoholic dementia by specialist Lee Kwang-min, was greatly shocked and showed strong confidence in abstinence. Counselor Lee Ho-sun responded firmly that it would be difficult, which embarrassed the husband. She also advised the wife, “You have to stop running errands for alcohol to save your husband.”

Meanwhile, a couple’s psychological drama was conducted to help the husband, who had repeatedly cheated on his wife, overcome his childhood trauma and the foreign wife who was deeply hurt by it. The wife, who had been telling the camp that her parents had passed away, surprised everyone by confessing to her mother, whom she had kept a secret. Park Ha-sun played the role of the mother who had hurt her wife, and moved everyone by telling her what she wanted to hear the most in her native language. In addition, the husband, who had always blamed his wife, admitted his mistake for the first time through the psychological drama and sincerely apologized to his wife, showing hope for change.

The story of the last couple of the 7th season, following the two couples, will be revealed on JTBC‘s ‘Divorce Consideration Camp’ on Thursday, January 2nd at 10:10 PM.
