Chef Jung Ji-sun and Her Husband Reveal Their Unique Marriage Dynamics
In a recent episode of KBS 2TV's 'Boss's Ears Are Donkeys' aired on the 3rd, chef Jung Ji-sun and her husband shared surprising revelations about their marriage. Jung disclosed that they have been living in separate rooms for seven years, citing differences in their sleeping habits. Her husband added that he is sensitive when it comes to sleeping while managing her late-night social outings, to which Jung responded passionately, defending their arrangement.
Reflecting on their marriage, Jung explained that they naturally drifted apart due to parenting demands and expressed satisfaction with their living arrangement. However, her comments left fellow guest Sunwoo Yong-nyeo shocked. The couple admitted to frequently discussing work but only engaging in personal conversations about once or twice a week, indicating a significant gap in their personal communication.
Jung's husband expressed concern over their son’s feelings, revealing that the child wished for family outings instead of the social gatherings Jung often attends. He voiced frustration over Jung's spending habits on social events, mentioning she tends to overspend more than he does. In an attempt to defend herself, Jung argued that her expenses are investments, assuring that all assets are registered in her husband's name to focus on her culinary ambitions.
This complex dialogue highlighted underlying tensions, as it was revealed Jung’s husband keeps photos of his ex-girlfriends at home, which has been a lingering issue since their marriage. She expressed annoyance over this, confirming she discovered these photos recently. Sunwoo encouraged Jung to discuss how these unnecessary relics might affect their relationship, emphasizing the importance of mutual respect in a marriage.
Additionally, Jung raised grievances about her husband's social club, where spouses are reportedly not allowed. This exclusion irked her, leading to a broader discussion on the gender dynamics within their marriage. As the conversation continued, both Sunwoo and Kim Ji-sun criticized the husband's behavior, stating that Jung is undeniably understanding and kind, highlighting the need for balance in their relationship.
