≪Tae Yuna’s Oh Ye≫
‘The era of content overflow’. For readers who are wondering what to watch, reporter Tae Yu-na and Ten Asia will serve as an ‘entertainment guide.’ It adds fun to watching the program by delving into hot issues in the entertainment industry, as well as watching points, major characters, and behind-the-scenes stories.
Rather than using the bad examples of controversial entertainment as a teacher, they are only raising the level by exploiting them as noise marketing. It is packaged as a solution program that deals with marital problems, but in reality, it is a complete program that only highlights conflicts and lists provocative elements. MBC's 'Oh Eun-young Report - Marriage Hell' incident, which was met with calls for its abolition, seems to have been forgotten and SBS Plus' 'How is Your Marriage' is at a dangerous level.
As 'How's Your Marriage?' (hereinafter referred to as 'Party Resolution') continues, the planning intention is forgotten and the focus is only on the more provocative settings. The purpose was to examine the marital relationship to find 'happiness' for couples on the verge of divorce, but only criticism and conflict exist toward each other, and the process toward happiness is left behind.
In addition, they seem to be focusing only on raising the topic by re-appearing couples who were controversial due to shocking stories in other entertainment shows. The 2nd yellow couple are those who received the solution from ‘marriage hell’ to being a ‘tough money couple’. At the time, the wife was shocked when she revealed that she had been beaten by her drunken husband when she was six months pregnant.
Those who received Oh Eun-young's solution in 'Marriage Hell' showed no change at all in 'Party Resolution'. The yellow wife said that her husband's domestic violence still persists, saying, "When he gets angry, he grabs me by the collar. When he asked me if he was just thinking about spending money, I said, 'Is it my fault that our house is not comfortable? It's my brother's fault.' “He ran over and grabbed me by the collar,” he revealed.
The third yellow couple is a couple who appeared on MBN's 'High School Mom' in November last year. At the time, Yellow Wife caused a great shock when she revealed that at the age of 19, she had a relationship with a church teacher who was 10 years her senior, became pregnant, and gave birth alone at a single mothers' center. In particular, it became a problem because it was seen as glorifying grooming crimes in that it showed the pregnancy stories of minors and adult men through broadcasting, leading to calls for the abolition of 'High School Goompa'.
Moreover, even though six months had passed since appearing on 'High School Mom,' the husband was still unable to become financially and emotionally independent from his parents at the age of 40, and his wife's angry personality and high level of swearing caused astonishment. The 3rd Blue husband did not hesitate to make sexually harassing remarks to his wife, saying, "You should lose weight and take care of yourself. A slim woman is your ideal type. My wife has only 15% of rational feelings left."
Looking at the 'party resolution' that only lists more provocative words and conflicts for couples who cannot find a solution, it reminds me of the 'marriage hell' situation in which petitions for abolition poured in due to the child molestation controversy. 'Marriage Hell' also started out with the intention of observing the daily lives of couples whose relationship is worse than others and sharing their concerns about conflict. However, the more provocative elements there were, the higher the viewer ratings and topicality, and as each episode went on, only extreme conflicts were shown rather than sincerity.
And this soon came to light in the 'Go-Stop Couple' episode that aired in December last year. In the process of showing the performer's story, the scene of a stepfather molesting his stepdaughter was shown. The spark of this criticism fell on the host, Dr. Oh Eun-young, and she faced a major crisis.
However, the 'party resolution' seems to have taken the wrong lesson from the case of 'marriage hell'. In a way that increases topicality even if it gets criticized. You may think that you are well on your way to a dangerous level, but crossing that line is only a moment. Responsibility for wrong choices is severe. There is no guarantee that the 'party resolution' will not follow in the footsteps of 'marriage hell'.
