This concern kept getting worse and worse, when the wife said all the verbal abuse she endured when she was sick I was shaking with anger. How the hell she stayed with the POS is beyond me 😞 poor thing

This is a huge concern. I'm a child of an alcoholic father. I have lost my father and my oldest brother because of alcohol and I probably soon will lose my youngest brother too for same reason. I can really relate to the family's concern. This man will die prematurely by liver cirrhosis, pancreatitis, alcohol dementia or another alcohol-related disease. He black-outs, that is a serious sign that he is drinking way too much. My father died of alcohol-related myocardial infarction, my eldest brother died of pancreatitis and my youngest brother shows clear signs of having developed alcohol dementia. I think Koreas way too liberal view of alcohol is also a major concern. They drink twice more than Russians, so Korea is the leading nation of alcohol consumption and have major problems with alcoholism. High alcohol consumption is a problem even in my country ( Finland). Many people self-medicate them selfs with alcohol to relieve stress. It is a sad truth. I'm not trying to moralize here. I don't spit in the bottle, so to speak, but my drinking stops after at one or two glasses of wine with a meal. I don't really like alcohol because of my painful memories which are related to alcohol.

Men like him, will never change. She is better off with out him, my experience alone, same as hers, she needs to leave. I am alive because i left. My children protected me, but it was not their fight, it was mine. I needed to survive to raise them. I also have cancer, after 7yrs, my children are happy, my cancer is dorment for now.

Sometimes I wonder how stories like this don’t get the full 200 votes!

One day if I get married, I don't want a smoking husband and most of all I don't want a guy who drinks. I can't deal with someone smoking/drinking. There are too many illnesses it brings with it.

if you're drunk all day, YOU'RE NOT CONSCIOUS ALL DAY *SHE'S BASICALLY A SINGLE MOTHER RAISING AN EXTRA OVERGROWN CHILD ALONGSIDE HER ACTUAL CHILDREN* seriously know your limits imagine how bad his organs are from all the drinking His liver, kidneys and stomach are probably dying and he doesn't even realise it, saying that he's fine and it's normal he's blinded by his own addiction to alcoholic beverages 😧

Her life must be horrible. She's gone through cancer and her husband still drinks. Poor son who also has to deal with an alcoholic father. This concern is really shows how bad alcohol can effect your family. Please quit alcohol while you can if u want to actually be happy.

no matter how tough life gets, there's no way you can say something like that to your breast cancer wife... after all she gave birth to your kid and she took care of you, I feel so bad for her.

This dad is so similar to my uncle. He was lazy, only drinking all day long and he had terrible drinking habits, cussing to his wife and breaking things. They divorced in only a few years. Now my uncle doesn't drink anymore, and married again, his wife is happy with my hardworking uncle😊 I'm so shocked this mom can endured so much until now. Hang in there, mom!

Woah. Shes stay with him for over 24 years ?!!!!!! 😱😱😱

My father used to do the same thing to my mom and it was even worse , the difference is they got divorced when i was four thanks god , i used to like him a lot but nowadays everything he texts me just feels like a lie and i don't wanna see myself hating him but i just feel so angry , we only see each other once in a year and he keeps lying to my young brother too . I feel so sorry for him because he doesn't understand anything yet , he is so young . He got divorced 3 times already. Because of him i don't view marriage the same way people do and i don't think i trust guys. Honestly don't have kids in theses environments people.

I'm really sorry to say, but this problem can't be solved by just going on the show and talking. He's a full-blown alcoholic. He needs professional help and to go to rehab. I don't know if there is an Alcoholic's Anonymous in Korea seeing as drinking is deeply ingrained in the culture, but he really needs it. He also needs to get medically tested because he probably already has liver cirrhosis as evidenced by his nose bleed. As for his temper and the his despicable treatment of his wife (specially during her cancer battle) and his children, I think he needs counseling. He must have some deep seated issues, insecurities or resentments to treat them so badly. It's during issues like these that I wish this show had doctors (both medical and psychological) on call for consultation to make people realize how serious their problems are and start them on the road to change.

Do Koreans know about alcoholism? Cause in tv programs like this it seems like they have no idea about it

Drinking alcoholic beverage is okay... But drinking too much to the point you can tell it's unhealthy is not. Drinking is really okay but again if you can't handle yourself when you got drunk and tend to do harm. *You need to stop.*

I will never tolerate my husband in the house with alcohol Smell... I don't drink so I think it will be hard for me to live with a drunk person

The husband always have the excuses no one will beat him i think he’s an alcoholic

Her sighing tells it all

South Korea seems to celebrate drinking alcohol ...as if it was some kind of awesome skills

I tried understanding him but he seriously needs therapy. A loved one of mine was diagnosed with breast cancer too and in those times, I only cried and cried until my eyes get puffy. She had cancer and she still needs to deal with this bastard. I hope the wife should get divorced. The wife can also be in danger if he gets too aggressive. I pity her

U dont see this as a concern. Why? Its part of their society. -Usually parents teach their kids to drink after they reach a certain age. -I saw one in this show they counculted a man to learn drinking so he can drink with his father in law, because that is what in laws are supposed to do. -men are considered manly and tough if they can tolerate drinking alot. - they have company dinners where employees are supposed ro drink together. So basically a person who dont drink are considered an outcast.

i feel sorry for her because he’s probs not going to stop drinking if you have a habit for 15 years and you tried to stop before and failed she is so strong staying with him for that long i feel like they should divorce she deserves sm better

I hope the husband keeps his word.

Hul... He really dared to say that to a sick woman? Omyah! What a terrible man.

I wouldn't stay with him.... he doesn't look that great at all and his personality is even worse. He denies things when it is obviously true and they are just trying to fix the problem 😐

The man has a serious alcohol addiction. I think he will need professional help if he wants to get better. And if he throws around and breaks things in the house, I am worried he might hit his wife as well. Of course it doesn't mean he really does do that, but people who break things out of anger tend to hit people as well. And if he really hits her, I don't think the wife will say that on national tv...

Another alcohol problem..

I lost someone dear to me due to alcohol. Please, Don’t save them, Tell them to save themselves

I like that sweet potato 🍠 on the screen when they are angry

This guy... I pray he changes for the sake of his family. His wife and kids have such a hard time...

Notice how he said "it wasn't fun to DRINK by myself" when his family moved out instead of saying "it wasn't fun to be by myself"... smh that statement right there tells you he thinks drinking is more important

More then 20 years you are really patients women

how come alchoolism is never a word they say in this show. this person clearly have an addiction to alchool, yet they talk abouth it like a pass time that got wrong?

Excuses. You don't say those hurtful words even under the influence of alcohol unless you've been thinking them to begin with. The thing though is once you said those words, no matter how much you regret, you can't take them back. The words are already out and damage to the other person has been done.

I swear in every episode the person in the wrong says "oh well I never thought it was a serious concern." If it wasn't serious you wouldn't be on the show.

The man with long hair looks like lee minho

btw,i just notice this...where is the other host guys? cultwo show guy? chanwoo if im not mistaken..

Nobody on the show made the point that he’s an alcoholic. He need to check into rehab.

How scary. I lived in fear of my father because he beat us and broke furniture, and my door. He even threw me out of the house when I was in high school, and I had to find a place to stay at midnight. The next day I had to go to school and pretend nothing happened. 20 years later I still have nightmares. Even though it was maybe monthly, you had to walk on eggshells, even if you were good, you were in danger, it was enough to scar my memories and I always get scared of getting into trouble now. I feel for the son. I hope the family is ok, and it is best to move away from him. I cried a lot when I saw this episode.

This lady needs to divorce him, then she will truly be free, my dads just like this bastard, the only difference is that my dad never drank, he was just a verbally abusing father that drove my moms and I to almost madness, now I live a very different life away from his anger.

Thats why my god not allowed us drink alcohol... god have good reason behind that

“But minimal garment” i laughed at the hsirt

its good that he changed.

Can anyone pls tell me what for the voting at the end of the show ? Concern or not???? What will happen after the result of scoring. I really didn't get it.

he is like my dad..............I don't know why many Korean dads are thinking it is okay to treat their family like piece of shits and it is okay to physically abuse them. He is typically 70~90s Korean dad. Very patriarchal.

I want to meet Yeongja too, but not as a Hello Counselor concern though.

15:11 why this girl with black and white shirt looks like revenge note's main actress

Honestly I was angered when she said he shouted "I would be happy if you guys are gone", then everyone was laughing!!!

Korean people don’t take alcoholics seriously or even label themselves that. He needs to go to rehab but they don’t even have rehabs for drinking. That just shows in their culture they don’t take it seriously.

Hell...how many alcoholic men are there ? I have already seen other ep of this show where husbands are alcoholics!!!

Omg 😢😢😢😢himneseyo omma😘😘😘😘😘

아내분이 아주 미인이시네

I cant understand why she came after 24yrs, logicslly if someone had husband like tht they would usually get divorced in few months I dnt even like people who drink for official things.. Even a little

Alcohol is a depressant, it is a toxic substance, it can cause cancer not just liver cirrhosis, when taken with medicines, it can kill. People who self medicate depression with alcohol, are playing with fire. He needs professional help.

Another "My ---- is drinking too much alcohol" story on Hello Counselor.... *sigh* this is arguably one of the most recurring concerns on this show....it's really disappointing.😑

Who is the man with long hair?

15:43 so No one heard that ?!?

I mean if you consume alcohol 1 or 2 cans is okay but drinking alcohol almost everyday wow isn’t that abit too far

so that's how they manage to work 68h a week, you just get drunk every day

The wife should just divorce this man as he doesn't show any signs of changing. It hurt when she mentioned how he was towards her when she was going through chemo for her breast cancer. That is when you need support from family the most, especially a partner. But this guy made fun of her looks and threatened to get another wife... I mean who TF say's such a thing. He should really consider going to rehab or join a support group if he is serious about changing his alcohol addiction. Because he has become fully dependent on alcohol and poses as a danger to his family... Such as him coming home, being verbally abusive and breaking stuff and not even remembering anything the next day.

Bastard ..so easy for him..ehat he thought ehen marrying her..to have fun all the day..it is about going through thick and thin..shame on him.because of alcohol... Damn.. I feel ashamed of ppl eho support drinking.. It has more disadvantages than advantage.. They dream of drinking together with son or father.. It is like they are starting the ruining of the person..

He's alcoholic, he needs to find help before it's too late...

Sounds like my ex husband 🙄

SECOND

Alcohol goes to mind it's because God forbidden it . So please stop this shit guys and keep that money for good things

She should have left his ass a long time ago.... she wasted her youth on this guy hoping he’ll change 😡🤦🏾‍♀️💀🙄

i hate the new HUL sound effect

He's an alcoholic...I bet he's still a drunk!!
