Following "The Return of Superman" episode, featuring the life of Choi Minhwan with three kids after divorce, Yulhee, who doesn't live with them anymore, is being blamed for the "pain" her kids are suffering right now.
K-Netz Express Concern to Ex-Couple's Son Jaeyul Being Exposed to SNS + Physical & Mental Changes
FTISLAND Choi Minhwan, along with his son and twin daughters, joined the KBS 2TV's "The Return of Superman" as the new family cast.
While people who have been watching the family closely even before the divorce were delighted to see the kids again, people were saddened by the physical and mental hurt the former couple inflicted on the kids with the separation of their parents.
In the show, the three kids demonstrated a close relationship with their father Minhwan while they try to adjust to the life of not having a mother around.
Fans were concerned as Minhwan confirmed that their eldest son Jaeyul seems to be a bit aware of the concept of divorce, compared to the four-year-old twins.
In the show, it could be seen that Jaeyul would often cry while thinking and expressing his longing for his mother Yulhee, and he would also ask his father if his mom could still enter their house.
He attested to his son that he could see, talk, and be with his mother any time that he wanted. Still, viewers were heartbroken to see that Jaeyul is being considerate to both his parents at the young age of 6.
Netizens also emphasized the fact that Minhwan revealed that the three kids were a little bit underweight as the separation seemed to have an impact on their physical health as well.
Lastly, since Jaeyul can only contact Yulhee by phone when they don't have scheduled meetings, people are concerned that the kids will be exposed to the negative comments being posted about their families.
Yulhee Blamed for Pain Her Kids Are Feeling + Hateful Comments on SNS
With this, netizens flocked to Yulhee's personal SNS and left negative comments about her.
Here, the former LABOUM singer is being framed as an "irresponsible mother" for giving up her custody of the kids when they are yearning for love and care from a mother.
Based on the comments, Korean netizens are irked that Yulhee bought her own house and started living alone.
On her Instagram, she has been sharing her daily life as a 26-year-old single woman, such as going to restaurants, traveling with friends and updating on her slimmer, healthier figure.
Just by seeing this, netters labeled her as an "irresponsible mother" and wrote:
- "Don't you feel sorry for the kids?"
- "Can't you just live with the kids? They miss their mom so much. My heart is aching."
- "Romanticizing her single era."
- "Is it okay to pretend like you are single?"
- "You broke our Jaeyul's heart! Is it okay to leave them hurting while you live like this?"
On the flip side, Yulhee's fans also came to her defense and attested to her that it was okay to live her life now and to not mind the hateful comments.
- "People who haven't experienced divorce won't understand."
- "This was the only time she put herself first while caring for three kids without a break, how dare you question her love for them?"
- "She just uploaded her photos and people went on to claim she's an 'irresponsible mom'? Instead of commenting here, go and take care of your own kids and life."
