Hello Counselor (Hello / 안녕하세요 / Annyeonghaseyo)

He really looks down on me.

"A woman can't eat at the same table as a man!"

What did I do so wrong?

And he's always quitting his jobs.

Yes, I do that when I have no choice.

I'm curious about your life.

I'm in debt for around $15,000.

It's only been 4 days since she started school,

but she wants to drop out.

I want to search for myself.

Hello Counselor 'Summer Special' "The 3 Best Solutions for Beating the Sleepless Nights" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

This one is "Are You Looking Down On Me?"

There's a husband and a wife here.

- This will suit your image. - Sure.

- You play the wife. - Okay.

Hello.

I'm a woman in my 40s with twin boys

in 8th grade.

My husband hasn't changed at all

during our 17 years of marriage.

"A woman can't eat at the same table as a man!"

And if I go out...

"A woman shouldn't stay out so late!"

Always talking about how women should behave,

he's like a king from the Joseon dynasty.

"Wife! Get me some water."

"Fix me dinner."

When I'm busy doing housework...

"Could you help with the housework on the weekends?"

I'm the breadwinner! I don't do things like that!

A woman should do the housework!"

And this is what annoys me the most.

He takes out all his stress on our family.

I have to work this hard because of you all.

Man, I should've never married

a woman from a poor family."

"Dear! How could you say that?

How upsetting."

You're a woman, and you just cut me off?

What do you even do at home?

I can't stand you!

Leave this place!"

I've packed my things and left several times.

She really left?

I can't take this anymore.

Can you please fix my audacious husband?

There are still people like this?

This husband sounds like he's from a folk village.

I thought this was about my husband at first.

My husband hasn't changed at all.

He's a bit harsh.

For example, how?

Let's say I put on some weight.

"How do you keep your thighs and arms so thick?"

He's like that.

He's sarcastic.

He's just joking around.

He isn't joking. He really means it.

- After I gave birth. - Really?

"Is there another baby still in you?"

He's really consistent.

He just sounds serious when he's joking.

- Since he's an actor. - It causes misunderstanding.

How do you treat your wife, Sukjoon?

We never bicker or argue.

I'm the one who committed the original sin,

so I can't be mean to my wife.

- What's wrong with remarrying? - Yeah.

Thank you for bringing that up.

In case people don't know.

People were like, "Oh."

Let's bring out our guest.

They were like that in the old days.

"A woman shouldn't do this or that."

Is he really like that?

Yes, he is.

Even when we eat...

"How dare a woman sit at the same table as me?"

Does he say that jokingly?

"How dare a woman..."

Even with housework,

he says the woman should do it, since he works.

Even though we both work.

- You both work? - Even though you work too?

I've been working for over 20 years.

He hates it when I come home late from work dinners.

"A woman shouldn't be out late at night."

How late?

If I'm out past 7...

- 7 in the morning? - No.

If it's 7, you can't make the work dinner.

Don't work dinners usually start at 7?

I get off work at 5,

so we have our work dinners earlier.

On the road, if there's a poor driver ahead of him,

he says, "That has to be a woman."

"That driver has to be a woman."

- He has prejudice. - Yes, a woman.

She should just stay in the kitchen.

- Why is she driving?" - The kitchen...

What does that mean?

That she should just do housework at home.

Nobody even says that anymore.

Is he like that outside of the house too?

Does he say stuff like that for people to hear?

He isn't like that outside.

Really? Just at home?

He acts like he's the king at home.

Yeah, it sounds like it.

I want to relax on my days off,

but he wants me to cook him all three meals.

He asks me to fetch him water.

Even when we get on the elevator,

he tells me to press the button.

"A woman should press the elevator button."

How does he come up when he's by himself?

Does he take the stairs?

He can't press the button because he's a man.

What else? Besides the elevator.

When we order delivery...

I make the money and I pay,

so you order the food."

But didn't you say that you both work?

Tell your husband he should order and you'll pay.

Yes, I've said that too.

Then what does he say?

"I'm paying."

I guess he really doesn't want to order it himself.

We each pay half of the living expenses.

- Half and half? - Yes.

And you raise your kids.

Yes, I pay for their academies.

Academy fees are really expensive.

Then he doesn't mind you spending your own money?

He does. Let's say I want some pastries

and I buy some with my credit card.

He complains about me using money.

But you made that money.

- I bet that made you sad. - That's very sad.

All you did was buy some pastries.

And you bought them with your own money.

Just like the title of this story, when you're at home,

he looks down on you?

He really does.

Since we're family, and it's comfortable.

My husband says...

If he had married a rich woman,

he'd be able to work less

and live in a better home.

He always says he wouldn't have to work so hard.

He takes it all out on you.

Doesn't this sound like a drama?

It's like a historical drama.

Maybe he has his side of the story,

but talking like that to your wife is really hurtful.

We should hear from the husband.

- Is that man your husband? - Yes.

He sure looks manly.

Let's meet the husband that acts like a king. Hello.

Hello.

Pleasure to meet you.

This is not a pleasure.

He's already sulky.

You're not happy to see your wife or to see me?

Everyone. I'm not happy to see anyone.

Are you being sulky?

I'm angry, not sulky.

From hearing what your wife said?

What made you so angry?

What did I do so wrong?

Gosh.

You don't understand why she's complaining?

I don't really do stuff for my family,

but I do my own laundry, wash my own shoes...

You do things for yourself.

I clean my own stuff.

Really?

Let me just ask you this, sir.

Would you rather talk to the male hosts here?

No.

You told me you were angry,

which startled me.

Maybe you don't like women talking to you.

- Can I talk to you too? - It's fine.

- May I ask you something? - Yes.

I wish you wouldn't.

After hearing all this,

I thought you'd be in your 60s or 70s,

- but you're really young. - Yes, I am.

- May I ask your age? - I'm 46.

- Born in 1974. - 1974.

That's my age.

You're my age.

- That was mean, Jiyeong. - Why?

We're not trying to find out how old he is.

I was trying to get closer to him.

I thought it would be a really tough question.

May I ask you something?

Oh, you're my age!"
