The viral clip was reposted on X (formerly Twitter), garnering 10.4M views at the time of writing. User @altairkyeonu curiously watched the entire episode, which has no English subtitles, and explained the whole story. Originally, the parents went on the show due to the son’s alleged anger issues that surfaced after they had their second child, a daughter.
Ok, I'm watching the complete show. It doesn't have subs so I'm using my limited hangul to understand. The parents came to the show because of the boy's anger issues. They have a daughter, and he started beating the parents after she was born. Now they know it's their
own fault. https://t.co/4ScTYn6PFn— As Polaroids de Betina (@altairkyeonu) November 20, 2023
Both parents also work full-time jobs. So, a grandmother helps take care of the kids, although she has her own health issues.

Based on other clips from the episode, the parents hadn’t realized how their actions had affected their son’s feelings. So, the episode concluded with a happy resolution. The mom made more time for Ji Eun, playing with him, reading to him, etc. They also had a heart-to-heart.
