Shocking Revelations in 'Family Hell': The Cycle of Violence in the 'Aemo Family'

The 'Aemo Family' father stands at the center of a cycle of violence.

On the October 9th episode of MBC's 'Oh Eun-young Report - Family Hell' (hereafter 'Family Hell'), the second part of the 'Aemo Family' story is revealed. In this week's episode, the mother of the 'Aemo Family' makes a shocking confession, stating, "I was beaten by my husband when I was pregnant, and I was tormented by him until last year."

This cycle of violence has been repeating for 30 years. The 'Aemo Family' mother, in a desperate plea, reached out to the 'Oh Eun-young Report'. Dr. Oh Eun-young expresses her sympathy, saying, "You were also a victim of domestic violence," acknowledging the long-buried wounds of the family.

The attitude of the 'Aemo Family' father, as revealed, leaves the MCs in shock. While the mother, son, and daughter discuss the serious issues of past abuse, the father remains indifferent and even laughs. Dr. Oh Eun-young points out that "neglect is also a form of abuse," and special MC Jang Dong-min expresses his concern, stating, "The father is the biggest problem." However, the son shows a resigned acceptance, saying, "I already knew my father would be like this."

The reasons behind the 'Aemo Family' father's neglectful behavior, despite being at the center of the abuse, will be unveiled in the episode airing at 9 PM.
