Anchor Kim Joo-ha shocked viewers by revealing the reality of her past hellish marriage.
On the 20th, in the 5th episode of MBN's Kim Joo-ha's Day and Night, psychiatrist Dr. Oh Eun-young appeared to discuss Kim Joo-ha's painful past. On that day, Kim Joo-ha candidly shared the deception of her ex-husband that began before their marriage and the outrageous infidelity that occurred during their marriage.
According to Kim Joo-ha's confession, her ex-husband hid the fact that he was married until just before their wedding and met with Kim Joo-ha. It was revealed that her mother-in-law also deceived her by saying her son was single and arranged their meetings. Kim Joo-ha later learned this fact and tried to restore their relationship, but she conveyed her devastating feelings that the broken trust could not be restored.
Even more shocking was her ex-husband's bold acts of infidelity. Kim Joo-ha revealed that her ex-husband had arranged a place to stay in the building across from the house where his mistress lived, and she even witnessed what was happening there. She also disclosed the tense process of tracking credit card usage to confirm the mistress's residence, which stirred the studio.
The part that angered viewers the most was that her ex-husband took their young child to the mistress's house. Kim Joo-ha shared that she learned from her child that her husband, who had previously gotten angry when asked to crush garlic and took the child out, was actually spending time at the mistress's house. The child remembered that they played with their aunt while their dad was in the room.
Hearing this, Dr. Oh Eun-young strongly criticized the act of bringing children to meet a mistress as clear child abuse. She pointed out that it is something a parent should instinctively never do and that it inflicts fatal emotional wounds on the child.
Kim Joo-ha, born in 1973, is now 52 years old. In 2013, she filed for divorce due to her husband's abuse, and in 2014, after 11 years of marriage, she legally finalized the divorce. Having shown a cool demeanor as an anchor, her heartbreaking confession shared on air has garnered much support and comfort from netizens.
