Broadcasters Lee Soo-geun and Seo Jang-hoon expressed deep sympathy for a woman struggling to receive child support payments from her ex-husband.

The story of the woman, who is facing difficulties due to unpaid child support, was featured on the KBS Joy show 'Ask Anything' (hereinafter referred to as 'Ask Anything') on the 15th.

The guest detailed her relationship with her ex-husband, from their initial meeting at church to their marriage and eventual divorce. Seo Jang-hoon was particularly taken aback by the ex-husband's past hacking of her Mini-hompy and the subsequent domestic issues, including financial instability and physical abuse.

When the guest explained that she married due to financial difficulties at home, Seo Jang-hoon remarked, "You're a prime example of someone who creates their own misfortune." He also questioned her decision to marry when he lacked financial stability and employment. The second reason for divorce cited was physical assault, with the guest revealing she suffered a fractured wrist after her ex-husband grabbed her arm forcefully during an argument.

The woman, raising two daughters aged 14 and 9, stated that she is owed approximately 20 million won in unpaid child support. She explained that the initially agreed-upon amount changed, and payments eventually ceased, leading her to freeze his bank account.

Lee Soo-geun is renowned for his comedic timing and quick wit, appearing in numerous popular variety shows like 'Knowing Bros' and 'New Journey to the West'. His ability to inject humor into any situation has made him a beloved figure in Korean entertainment. On 'Ask Anything', he often takes on the role of a supportive advisor, offering genuine empathy and practical advice to guests facing dilemmas. His balanced approach, combining sharp insights with heartfelt understanding, resonates deeply with viewers.
