[Asia Economy Online Issue Team] The MCs of 'Love Interference' expressed their anger toward a boyfriend who engaged in a pseudo-relationship for a high-paying part-time job.

In episode 92 of KBS Joy's entertainment program 'Love Interference Season 3,' which aired on the 5th, a story of a 25-year-old couple of the same age was featured.

The woman shared the story of her boyfriend who saves time from their dates to work as a private tutor. To console her when she felt upset, the boyfriend gave her a gift, but it had no wrapping paper. Later, it was revealed that the main item was given to the student he tutors, and the gift she received was just a promotional item. When she confronted him, the boyfriend apologized, saying he hadn’t thought it would upset her and admitted he lacked sensitivity.

However, after seeing messages exchanged between the boyfriend and the tutoring student, the woman was even more shocked. The student asked for a pinky promise if she scored 100 points, and the boyfriend agreed. Moreover, they exchanged words of love. In response, Joo Woo-jae remarked, "The boyfriend is enjoying this," pointing out the situation.

The woman eventually told her boyfriend she wanted to break up. The boyfriend explained that everything he said to the tutoring student was not sincere and that he acted that way at the request of the student's parent, who wanted him to motivate the student to get into college in exchange for double the tutoring fee.

The woman shared her dilemma about whether she should forgive her boyfriend, who was apologizing and begging. Joo Woo-jae said, "Though he’s called a student, the other party is an adult in their 20s," adding, "The boyfriend was flirting with another woman."

Seo Jang-hoon said, "The student became the villain, but there’s actually no reason for that. She didn’t even know he had a girlfriend and liked him because the tutor treated her well. Imagine how hurt she would be if, after getting into college, the boyfriend cut off contact. He’s doing something he shouldn’t with multiple people," emphasizing the boyfriend’s wrongdoing.

Kim Sook said, "The boyfriend’s first priority is the tutoring student. Break up firmly," and Han Hye-jin advised, "When money and other values collide, see which one they prioritize. It represents a lot about that person. The boyfriend is working as a substitute lover, deceiving his emotions. Even if life is tough, there should be values that matter," offering her advice.
