Contentious Divorce Battle Unfolds for Dog Fighting Couple as Assets and Custody Disputes Intensify

In a dramatic episode of JTBC's reality show "Divorce Counseling Camp," a couple known as the "Dog Fighting Couple" faced intense disputes over property division.

The show's recent airing showcased the tension between Jin Hyun-keun and Gil Yeon-joo as they navigated their divorce proceedings. During a consultation with their lawyer, the wife expressed her distress over her husband's accumulation of family debt, seeking compensation for the emotional toll it had taken on her. The lawyer, however, suggested that the husband might even be entitled to receive alimony due to past incidents of violence, which left the wife visibly shocked.

The couple ultimately reached an agreement on custody arrangements, with the husband taking responsibility for their child. However, sharp disagreements arose concerning their financial division, with the wife demanding a larger share, claiming that many assets were gifts from her family. This negotiation became even more contentious as the couple's total assets were evaluated at around 50 million KRW, leading to a proposed split that favored the wife heavily.

As they continued to hash out their financial issues, the couple struggled to reach a consensus on alimony and child support payments. The wife pushed for a significant lump sum from the husband's retirement fund, while he proposed a more balanced approach to their support obligations. Ultimately, an agreement was reached that included a monthly child support of 300,000 KRW for 15 years, though the couple’s future remains uncertain.

Following the conclusion of "Divorce Counseling Camp," updates on the couple’s lives have been scarce compared to other participants, leaving fans speculating about their current relationship status. The couple's recent decision to unfollow each other on social media has fueled rumors of their separation. Jin Hyun-keun has promised to keep fans updated on their situation through social media soon.
