A settlement appears in a double-crossing affair… Even the lawyer cuts ties ‘This is terrible’ (Lawyers at the Round Table)

SBS Life‘s ‘Lawyers at the Round Table’ refused to take on a divorce case that was close to absurd.

The third episode of SBS Life’s ‘Lawyers at the Round Table’, which aired on the 27th, introduced the two most absurd divorce cases ever, ‘The Path I Chose’ and ‘The Absurd Love Memorandum’.

The first client was a 33-year-old man in his second year of marriage who requested an annulment or cancellation of the marriage. The client, the husband, is a typical single man who graduated from a prestigious music school, whose mother is running a business in the United States, and whose older brother is a lawyer, met a pretty girl at a club and got pregnant before marriage.

However, the wife‘s pregnancy was a fake. Her job was a karaoke assistant, and her education and family background were all fake. She had also been divorced before. She was having an affair with her divorced husband, and they even had a son together. The three MCs who confirmed this all said, “This is a great topic overseas,” Tak Jae-hoon said, “She really works hard,” and Lee Ji-hye stuck out her tongue, saying, “She has too many schedules.”

The most shocking thing was that the wife had secretly signed up for four life insurance policies with her husband as the insured. Lee Ji-hye decided to take on the case, arguing, “In addition to a marriage annulment lawsuit, the wife needs to be appropriately punished.”

The second client was a 38-year-old man with a son who had been married for four years. They were a couple who met in college, joined the same company as classmates, and got married. However, the wife had an affair with a coworker, which was even reported on an anonymous website. The client’s husband wanted a quick divorce and did not ask for division of property, custody, or child support.

There was a twist here. The husband had an affair before the wife‘s affair. The wife forgave her husband’s affair and confessed her affair, suggesting a love oath agreement, which is a counter-affair agreement. They agreed to the agreement and continued their married life while having an affair. However, when their son suddenly got sick and his wife lost contact, the husband tried to get rid of the mistress and break the agreement.

However, the wife refused, and the husband eventually wanted a divorce. The problem was that another twist was revealed here. The husband had not gotten rid of the mistress. The lawyers, who had no idea about this, were shocked. Tak Jae-hoon said, “Is this a twist? Are you surprising me when the movie is over and I‘m leaving?” and Shin Gyu-jin was shocked and said, “It’s a cookie video.” In the end, it was decided not to take on this case because the trust relationship between the client and the lawyer was broken.

The broadcast that day shocked viewers with its twists and turns in each divorce case. The three lawyers analyzed the case and explained the conditions for the cancellation of the marriage, the period of the adultery lawsuit, the division of property in the event of a divorce due to adultery, custody, child support, alimony, etc.

Meanwhile, ‘Lawyers of the Round Table’ is a divorce entertainment program that analyzes and solves stories based on actual divorce cases. It airs every Monday at 8:40 PM on SBS Life and SBS Plus.
