Korean Singer Insooni Shares Her 'Weekend Widow' Woes Due to Husband's Golf Passion

Insooni, the beloved Korean singer, humorously lamented about her 'weekend widow' status due to her husband's golf obsession on the recent episode of TV Chosun's 'Joseon's Love'.

The episode, aired on the 16th, featured Insooni and her husband of 32 years, Park Kyung-bae. Insooni introduced her spacious home, mentioning, "I live here with my husband and our dog." She described her husband as "four years younger" and added, "Even if he cracks dad jokes, please forgive him. He's quite the talker." Park Kyung-bae introduced himself, saying, "I teach at a school, specializing in golf. I instruct both professionals and amateurs."

Park Kyung-bae showcased his trophy-filled study. Insooni commented, "He cherishes his golf trophies above all else," and added, "Neither my daughter nor I play golf," expressing her frustration, "Every weekend, I feel like a widow." She continued, "He always goes out on weekends, whether it's for training, playing, or teaching golf. Even if I have a day off, he's out golfing."

Insooni humorously remarked, "How do you think he won all those trophies? He left me at home to win them." Golf enthusiast and host Kim Gook-jin jokingly said, "Why do I feel guilty? It's truly a hobby," while Kang Soo-ji empathized with Insooni, saying, "It's a hobby, but it's more intense than a job."

Park Kyung-bae proudly mentioned, "My wife's awards are displayed separately in her office because there are so many." Pointing to a specific award, he shared, "I received this for teaching students. It's given to the top 5% of professors, and I've been honored to receive it four times. It's a proud achievement."
