Why This Boyfriend Works 17 Hours a Day: Girlfriend Desires 100 Million Won Wedding

On the 23rd, the story of a fitness trainer who works 17 hours a day to fulfill his cohabiting girlfriend's wish for a '100 million won wedding' was revealed on JTBC's 'Love War.'

A 31-year-old freelance announcer and a 27-year-old fitness trainer appeared to share their respective perspectives. The couple is currently living together while dreaming of marriage. However, the woman expressed frustration as she waited endlessly at home for her boyfriend.

The boyfriend heads to the gym at 6 AM and focuses entirely on work until he finishes. The woman expressed her dissatisfaction, saying, "He is so busy that we can't get in touch. I can't even see his face on weekdays."

When the boyfriend returned home and spent an entire hour just showering, the panelists watching in the studio sympathized with the girlfriend's hurt feelings, saying, "He only knows about work; that's too much."

The man explained his heavy financial burden, stating, "After moving in together, my credit card bills have increased more than threefold. Actually, I didn't have to live together, but I am doing it because my girlfriend wanted to. We spend over 1 million won on monthly rent, and I pay for all the food expenses. I even give my girlfriend 400,000 won for living expenses."

He further revealed, "The ratio of money spent between my girlfriend and me is 1 to 9, with her being 1 and me being 9."

He continued, "My girlfriend said she wants to have a grand wedding in a beautiful place. She said she wants to divide the wedding into parts 1, 2, and 3." The girlfriend stated, "I want the wedding to be as glamorous as possible. A 100 million won wedding is my dream."

The panelists expressed understanding for the boyfriend, noting, "There was a reason why the man only works."
