Wife used sleeping husband's fingerprint to transfer 5 million won

A wife transferred 5 million won to her own account using her husband's fingerprint while he slept to prevent him from spending money at nightlife establishments. The incident was featured on the MBC program "Oh Eun Young’s Report Marriage Hell" on the 19th.

The story of a wife who used her husband's fingerprint to unlock his phone while he was sleeping and transferred 5 million won to her own account has been revealed. While the husband expressed outrage, claiming his wife secretly took the money, the wife argued her actions were intended to prevent his frequent visits to nightlife establishments and excessive spending. The conflict highlighted how distrust between the couple has extended beyond financial issues to the unauthorized access of mobile phone security.

During the second story of the "Accusation Couple" featured on the MBC entertainment program "Oh Eun Young’s Report Marriage Hell" broadcast on the 19th, the couple clashed again over mobile phone and monetary issues. When the husband stood up to leave while holding his phone during a conversation with his wife, she expressed dissatisfaction, asking why he felt the need to take a phone that was locked anyway.

The husband countered by targeting his wife's behavior. "Because you keep (unlocking it) with my fingerprint," he retorted, before demanding, "Why won't you admit you used my fingerprint to take the money?" Even the simple act of moving with the phone escalated into mutual suspicion.

The details revealed by the husband in an interview with the production team were even more shocking. He claimed, "I came home after drinking, and she used my fingerprint while I was sleeping to transfer 5 million won to her account." He asserted that the money was transferred using fingerprint authentication while he was asleep. From the husband's perspective, he felt a sense of betrayal as his spouse secretly accessed his mobile phone and financial information to move funds.

However, the wife provided a different reason. She stated she transferred the money because she was worried about her husband's frequent visits to nightlife establishments and the resulting expenditures. "I am anxious. When he goes to places where he drinks or such, he spends hundreds of thousands of won at a time, so all that money just disappears," she said. She explained that she was anxious that money would be wasted because her husband frequently visited nightlife venues and spent significant amounts each time.

The wife further confessed, "He went to those places too often, and the amount he spends is not insignificant. I thought I had to tie that money up quickly. That is why I moved the money to myself." Driven by the thought that she had to stop her husband's spending, she resorted to using his fingerprint while he slept to transfer the funds.

This conflict demonstrated that the couple holds entirely different views regarding the same money. The husband took issue with the act of moving money without his consent, while the wife argued it was a measure to prevent his repeated spending on nightlife. However, in a situation where distrust toward the partner has deepened, unilateral financial access and control inevitably exacerbate the conflict. It shows a vicious cycle where actions taken to protect money damage trust, and that damaged trust leads to further surveillance of the partner.
