The representative broadcaster couple, Jo Chung-hyun and Kim Min-jung, confessed to a 'divorce' crisis. Contrary to their cheerful image, Kim Min-jung revealed ongoing issues with her husband Jo Chung-hyun, who gets 'angry' at home.

The cable channel tvN STORY pre-released a video from episode 25 of 'Kim Chang-ok Show 3' set to air on the 11th, on the 8th. The video included the story of the divorce crisis faced by the couple, Jo Chung-hyun and Kim Min-jung, who are both former KBS announcers. Kim Min-jung drew attention by revealing Jo Chung-hyun's unexpected personality, mentioning their separation and decision to divorce.

Hwang Je-seong introduced an 'angry' husband story. Hwang Je-seong read, "Please fix your husband's angry tone. Just asking something, he's angry; just making a request, he's angry. My husband gets angry at any time and for trivial things, which often escalates into fights. I knew this from the time we were dating, but I was deceived by the words, 'I'll fix it. I'm sorry,' and I've been in this situation approaching our 10th wedding anniversary this year. This is 'a troublesome situation,' right?"

The protagonists of the story were announcers Kim Min-jung and Jo Chung-hyun. Kim Min-jung said of Jo Chung-hyun, "The image of my husband that is shown to the public is amiable, accommodating, and cheerful, but at home, he is the angriest husband. People ask, 'Aren't announcers skilled at communication?' but even with his good voice and resonance, he gets angry. I'm not the only one surprised; our child cries out, 'Daddy talks like a tiger.' He always has something to defend against, always ready to attack."

Then, Kim Min-jung talked about their most recent conflict, saying, "The most recent incident occurred during the transition from December 31, 2024, to January 1. That day is special because we want to wrap everything up well and be happy with family. But he got angry that day too. I was busy preparing for the child's daycare, while I needed to cook and pack the child's bag, but the child kept clinging to me."

She continued, "So I said, 'What is your father doing?' so he could hear. But there was radio silence. Because he was busy, I saw his feet moving in the bedroom. I could only see his feet wiggling while he was lying down, looking at his phone. I thought, 'He must be waiting for an urgent call,' while I dressed the child, helped them wash, and tied their hair. But then I saw him wiggling again," and explained the situation at that time, stating, "After holding back five or eight times, I finally said something, but given the circumstances, I couldn't be nice about it, so I responded, 'I'm not the one not doing anything.'" Kim Min-jung's revelation in the pre-release video captured Jo Chung-hyun's flustered expression, stirring curiosity.

Moreover, Kim Min-jung is also set to reveal a story about her decision to end things because of Jo Chung-hyun's tone. Kim Min-jung confessed, "I have thought about separation and decided to end things because of Jo Chung-hyun's tone," to which Jo Chung-hyun acknowledged his angry tone but will disclose the secret behind it. They are said to have shared their feelings to improve their relationship and were moved to tears.

Kim Min-jung had previously mentioned her discord with Jo Chung-hyun. On the 1st, she shared a photo from her graduation ceremony at the Graduate School of Environmental Studies at Yonsei University on her personal social media, stating, "The special reason for this study was that it was a learning I clung to like a straw when a big crisis hit our marriage. I began studying to understand my husband and thank him for supporting my studies."

Kim Min-jung added, "While in my studies, I was pregnant with and gave birth to two children, creating a solid family, so I guess there is some reward for fully committing? Overcoming the divorce crisis. Also, it could be seen as a struggle to not lose myself," and continued, "When I clashed with my husband, during my relations with my family of origin, with my in-laws, wondering how to be a mother for the first time, and other life's big and small crises, I acquired wisdom to navigate them wisely through my studies."

Jo Chung-hyun and Kim Min-jung, who maintained a secret romance for five years as KBS announcer colleagues, married in 2019 and have one son and one daughter, including their second son born in July of last year.
