Ms. Choi Seon (47) was once a wild and unruly tomboy. She hurriedly got married to fulfill her father's wish, who was critically ill...!! Before she could even receive her husband's love, Ms. Seon traveled across the country in search of folk remedies for her mother-in-law, who was physically incapacitated by illness. Despite her devotion, her mother-in-law's treatment of her daughter-in-law only worsened; she could no longer bear the sight of her son and daughter-in-law together... Unable to endure the noose-like treatment, Ms. Seon was diagnosed with uterine cancer, but she had no time to care for herself as her mother-in-law's abuse continued, and her husband constantly scolded her. At the end of despair, she contemplated suicide... Let us delve into the life of Ms. Choi Seon, who has overcome 10 years of arduous treatment and is now living a new life as a children's book author. ----- Ms. Choi Seon (47), the youngest daughter of seven siblings, grew up pampered and cherished, monopolizing all the affection. She was a wild, tomboyish girl who used to follow her older brothers around as a child. However, when she turned 24, her father became critically ill, forcing her to rush into marriage. She ended up marrying a man she met through her older sister's introduction just 27 days later. A marriage achieved in a flash! Marriage to a man known for being wealthy and diligent seemed destined for happiness... However, her mother-in-law, who was suffering from a serious illness, showed an excessive love for her son. Seon-i was summoned to her in-laws' house just before leaving for her honeymoon. The bizarre nursing duties of her mother-in-law began, involving centipedes, snakehead fish, loaches, and even "poop soju" (a type of liquor made from feces)...!! Her mother-in-law insisted on eating everything that others said was good for her, and Seon-i had to scramble to find these things. She could endure the burdens of caring for her mother-in-law, who was unable to even move, such as handling her bodily waste; however, what drove her to despair was her mother-in-law's cold indifference and jealousy. The mother-in-law, believing she had lost her son to her daughter-in-law, never once said "thank you" or "you worked hard," no matter how much Seon-i nursed her through her difficult illness. Seon-i had never comfortably lain in the same bed with her husband, and her mother-in-law refused to even let her son enter the same room with his wife. Due to such harsh abuse from the mother-in-law, the marital conflict deepened...! However, Seon-i, who was completely exhausted from life with her in-laws, became pregnant. Unfortunately, she had to undergo surgery due to an ectopic pregnancy, and to make matters worse, she was diagnosed with uterine cancer. Seon-i had to undergo four major surgeries over the course of two years and seven months due to uterine cancer. Meanwhile, her husband's heart had already drifted away from her; he began to wander aimlessly and even committed adultery...! As marital conflict reached its peak due to Ms. Seon-i’s desperate protests to her husband, she decided to take her own life... Her mother-in-law rushed to her side as she wept in agony, overwhelmed by the heartbreaking sorrow of leaving behind her young son. The mother-in-law confessed to Ms. Seon-i, who had resolved to end her life, the hardships of her past after losing her husband as a widow, and wept as she begged for forgiveness for her past mistakes. Afterward, Ms. Seon-i and her mother-in-law came to understand each other and shared a deep love for one another. Thus, ten years after she had married into the family, the mother-in-law passed away. Even in her final moments, she left a will instructing her son to treat her well. Ms. Choi Seon is currently living in Gyeongju, working as a children's book author in a studio built by her husband, and is living a happy life while waiting for her son, who is serving in the military. Although her life as a daughter-in-law was difficult in the past, she received warm love from her mother-in-law one last time, and she has a husband who always gives her boundless love, and a filial son... Let’s delve into the life of Ms. Seon-i, who says she now envies nothing.
