FAMILY ABOMINATION: Wife’s Lover Is Father-in-Law Already Having an Affair—She Claims It Was For ‘Stimulation’

The latest episode of the true-story drama Couple Scandal Season 3 stunned viewers with a husband’s devastating ordeal after discovering his wife was having an affair—with his own father—threatening to destroy his entire family.

The episode, which aired Wednesday on GTV and kstar, follows a husband (Lee Jun Young) living with his wife (Park Yoo Jin), their child, and his elderly parents. His mother was bedridden due to poor health, and his wife dutifully cared for her.

The shocking betrayal begins when the mother-in-law (Gwak Eun Young) visits. The father (Son Seon Geun) behaves unusually, attending to her with suspicious closeness and escorting her home. The husband later witnesses them drinking together and even going on a date outside a hotel. Despite knowing his mother was alone at home, the two continued their affair. When confronted, they promised the children they would stop—but tension lingered in the household.

The situation worsens when the husband sees his wife and father arriving home together. She claims they were running errands to ease awkwardness, temporarily easing his anger. However, the discovery of a necklace from the father in the wife’s drawer and intimate text messages reignites his suspicion.

Determined to confirm the truth, the husband installs CCTV, capturing his wife and father in flagrante delicto. When caught, both deflect blame—she accuses him of coercion, he claims seduction by her.

Further revelations show the wife had previously cheated with a personal trainer and lied about her education. When the father learned of this, she escalated the situation, involving him in the affair to cover her past lies. She maintained the betrayal even while caring for her mother-in-law and speaking with her husband. Enraged, the husband demanded a divorce. Initially, the wife begged for forgiveness for the sake of their child, but soon revealed her true intentions: “We have no savings, the child should be raised by me, I just needed new excitement.”

The husband eventually told his mother-in-law, sparking a physical confrontation between her and the wife, with the father trying to intervene. Amid the chaos, the husband’s ailing mother passed away, leaving her estate solely to her son, cutting the father and wife out entirely.

In the end, the husband severed ties with both his unfaithful wife and father, safeguarding his child’s future and his family’s legacy, determined to rebuild his life and find happiness.
