Jeon Hyun-moo, “Myeongdeok Foreign Language High School’s best output”

'The Judge' captured attention with a virtual divorce lawsuit that caused overindulgence.

In JTBC's 'Home Judge', which aired on the 7th, a client of an 8-year-old couple who was in real danger of divorce appeared, drawing attention to a virtual divorce lawsuit and recording a viewership rating of 2.1% (based on Nielsen Korea's paid households in the metropolitan area). The couple had continued their married life without opening up their economic sphere, and the wife requested that the husband, who spent money on 'food technology (vegetables + financial investment)' without providing living expenses, specify property for divorce and property division.

On this day, Attorney Lee Eon revealed that he had a relationship with Jeon Hyun-moo. It turned out that he was a junior at Myeongdeok Foreign Language High School. Jeon Hyun-moo graduated from the English Department of Myeongdeok Foreign Language High School. Attorney Baek Seung-woo also said that he graduated from the same foreign language high school as Jeon Hyun-moo.

When asked if Jeon Hyun-moo had any good stories, lawyer Baek Seung-woo made people laugh by saying, "Myeongdeok Foreign Language High School is really famous for its top output. But I've never heard of any specific episodes. I' “I’m sorry.”

In the video filmed from the perspective of the complainant's wife, attention was drawn to the daily life of the husband, a 'food butler' (plant + butler) who takes care of the plants and water even though he does not provide food for the children. Plants took up more than half of the family's common space, the living room, and we could see that the husband was more serious about plants as a side job than his main job, golf.

Even when his wife asked him to take the child to the academy, the husband gave priority to reporting the flower pot. In addition, in order to avoid a conflict situation, he went out without even cleaning up the pot, and the sight of his wife cleaning up after being left behind made even Lee Chan-won and Hong Jin-kyung, who were representing the husband , frustrated. When Lee Chan-won said, “Should we say what we want to say just for today?” Hong Jin-kyung said, “Then Chan-won. Can't we just go easy today? “I feel angry inside,” he said, causing the two people, who had almost forgotten their duties, to burst into laughter.

After returning home, the husband was angry when he found out that his wife had briefly turned off the humidifier used to maintain plant humidity while cleaning. The husband's harsh actions, such as blaming his wife for tidying up, drawing a line on the living room mat with a marker to divide the space, and throwing the plant on the floor, saying it was dead, left him speechless. Even a week later, the husband's lawyers were frustrated by the introduction of a greenhouse, which the wife had opposed. The fight that started as the head of the greenhouse ended with each party only putting forth their own thoughts and saying only hurtful words to each other.

During the defense team's question-and-answer session, unlike the husband, who claimed that he paid for the rent, management fees, and children's education expenses, the wife only paid the rent with her husband's money for six months, and is currently paying it herself, and out of the total living expenses of 3 million won, the husband is giving her the most. He argued that the money was 700,000 won. The husband, who does not have a fixed income as a freelancer, started 'Siktech' to help the family. He invested about 20 million won and made a profit of 12-15 million won, and there was a time when sales were good.

The husband's lawyers fought back, arguing that food tech was just an investment and not grounds for divorce, while the wife's lawyers argued that the breakdown of the relationship due to the husband's attitude of not sharing his financial situation was their defense strategy. In this case, where 'Sik Tech' was used to find out about whether divorce can be established and issues of alimony and property division, 90% of the home judges ruled in favor of the wife. The husband pledged to change and take action, and to improve the couple's relationship, 'Judge Home' promised to support counseling fees for the couple.

In the 'Law How' corner, we looked at ways to inherit an inheritance harmoniously. We answered our questions by listening to lawyers' clear answers on issues such as passing away inheritance lawsuits, claiming retained shares, how to write a will well, and the inheritance rights of parents who have neglected their duty of support.
