Shocking Infidelity Incident: Husband's Three Mistresses and the Inaction of the In-Laws
A woman in her 60s is drawing social attention by exposing her husband's shocking infidelity and the behavior of her in-laws who overlooked it.
The story, revealed on JTBC's "Incident Department" on the 11th, starkly depicts the tragic reality of a family.
According to the informant, referred to as A, her husband, who was a music teacher, left his teaching job claiming he was not suited for it and pursued a free-spirited life running a café and engaging in music activities.
About 10 years ago, her husband left home, stating he disliked living with someone, and started a pattern of returning home only once or twice a month.
A indicated that she adapted her life to this unusual personality and age of her husband.
One day, late at night, A received a call from an unknown number. Initially, the call would disconnect as she tried to answer, and when she called back, it wouldn’t be answered.
Days later, when she finally answered the call, a drunk woman said, “You are really foolish. How can you sleep when your husband is not home?” and continued with a shocking statement, “I’m going crazy because of your husband. He is causing me so much stress because of his women issues.”
“You are really foolish. How can you sleep when your husband is not home?”
Multiple Infidelity and Betrayal by the In-Laws
The next day, A met with a woman, referred to as B, who claimed she has been in an affair with A's husband for 13 years and mentioned that, besides herself, there were two other mistresses: one of 10 years and another of 3 years.
B explained that she contacted A after enduring harassment from the other mistresses.
According to B’s testimony, the 10-year mistress, referred to as C, pretended to be the legitimate wife and threatened B. Following that, C and the 3-year mistress, referred to as D, joined forces to harass B.
In search of a solution, A, who consulted a lawyer, experienced an even greater shock.
A found out that her in-laws traveled with B, taking photos, and treating her as if she were the true daughter-in-law. Even A's mother-in-law and sister-in-law called B "the new bride."
When A confronted her mother-in-law, she received a baffling response: “I thought you were divorced. I believed you had a strong attachment, which is why you continued to come visit during holidays.”
Ultimately, A decided to divorce her husband and file a lawsuit against the three mistresses. In response, her husband displayed a shameless attitude, saying, “You can sell your house for property division and give compensation to the three of them. Good for you.”
Attorney Park Ji-hoon from the law firm Didimdol stated, “If the mistresses knew that the husband was married, they could be liable for damages,” adding, “Especially, the one who has been involved for 10 years is likely to have the most responsibility.” Furthermore, he noted, “It might also be possible to seek damages against the actions overlooked by the in-laws.”
Professor Park Sang-hee from the Counseling Psychology Department at the Korea Open Cyber University analyzed the husband’s behavior as that of a “typical relationship addict,” pointing out, “He lacks awareness of ethics and law, as his pleasures and benefits outweigh the pain he causes.” He advised, “Since even the in-laws encourage this behavior, A stands to gain nothing by continuing the relationship.”
