TV CHOSUN's variety show 'Our Baby Was Born Again' is capturing attention with the story of a mother nearing her second child's birth. This expectant mother, past her due date and over 40 weeks pregnant, has declared her intention to divorce and raise her children alone, leaving hosts Park Soo-hong and Jang Seo-hee in shock.

The broadcast featured the mother, who is now 42 weeks pregnant. Concerns were raised about a potential C-section due to her advanced stage of pregnancy, much later than the average delivery time. However, viewers were stunned to see footage of the mother surfing confidently even at 39 weeks pregnant. She is a professional surfer, formerly a reserve member of the national team, who displayed remarkable agility in the water despite her advanced pregnancy.

While the mother remained calm about her overdue delivery, Park Soo-hong expressed his anxiety, recalling his own wife's pregnancy. The mother explained, "My first child also came at 41 weeks. It'll come when it's time," but added that placental calcification due to aging placenta might necessitate induced labor.

The biggest shock came when the mother revealed her decision to divorce, stating, "I'll raise my two children by myself." She cited exhaustion from her husband's busy schedule and lack of emotional expression, coupled with a desire to shield her children from parental conflict. Scenes of the heavily pregnant mother struggling alone with her first child and luggage on the way to the hospital further hinted at the strained marital relationship.

Viewers can witness the 'Surfing Mom's' delivery at 42 weeks and find out if she proceeds with her divorce plans on the live childbirth variety show 'Our Baby Was Born Again,' airing Tuesday at 10 PM on TV CHOSUN.

Park Soo-hong is a veteran South Korean television presenter and comedian, widely known for his long and successful career in the entertainment industry. He has hosted numerous popular variety shows and is often referred to as a 'national MC' for his widespread appeal. Recently, he has made a comeback to broadcasting after overcoming personal difficulties, inspiring many with his resilience.
