The second-year middle school student Geumjok showed sensitivity to his father's corporal punishment.

On the 20th, Channel A's 'Recent Parenting: Geumjok Like My Child' aired footage of Geumjok, who displayed extreme anger towards his mother, meeting with his father.

Earlier, Geumjok revealed violent tendencies in a conversation with his mother, surprising those around him by grabbing his mother's hair at the slightest disagreement. On that day, Geumjok's father, who is living separately after divorcing his mother, visited their home. His father said that in the past, his mother had contacted him wanting to give up on Geumjok and that he had attempted to take Geumjok with him. Additionally, Geumjok mentioned that he had been assaulted by his father.

The mother said, "On the day I went to the police station, I was so distressed that I called his father, and he came home. I told him to take Geumjok, and he went into the room to talk with Geumjok. At that time, his father was very angry and raised his voice, and when Geumjok came out, his T-shirt was torn, and he was in tears."

On that day, his father apologized to Geumjok. Geumjok appeared to soften at his father's apology and serious conversation. However, when his father lightly patted his shoulder, Geumjok shouted, "Why are you hitting me?" and yelled, "Get lost!"

Dr. Oh Eun-young noted, "When the mother told him to go with her, he might have thought it was a second abandonment." She added, "The child has nowhere to lean on." Dr. Oh further advised, "The trust in his father is not very solid. Even if the parents' intentions are not that, they must exercise caution."

Meanwhile, on that day, Dr. Oh Eun-young met with Geumjok's father and had a conversation. Geumjok's father discussed the justification for his corporal punishment. Dr. Oh said, "It is not okay to hit. I hear that he was beaten a lot because his mother was trying to get him to study."

Dr. Oh Eun-young advised, "It would be better to sincerely say 'I'm sorry' and spend more time with Geumjok."
