- Counselor Lee Ho-sun said remarks about her weight trigger anger during a tvN STORY program about moments of sudden temper.
- She said she often receives questions comparing her weight with that of fellow counselor Dr. Oh Eun-young, answering that she was “overwhelmingly” heavier.
- The program also discussed situations that anger guests Jang Young-ran and In Kyo-jin, including attacks on family members and lies by acquaintances.
Lee Ho-sun had a sharp answer when viewers asked whether she or fellow counselor Dr. Oh Eun-young was heavier: “I’m overwhelmingly fatter. What are you going to do about it?” Her response drew laughter in the studio.
The exchange came during a tvN STORY broadcast of “Lee Ho-sun’s Counseling Center,” which focused on moments when anger suddenly rises. Lee began her lecture by asking whether people can control that instant surge of temper, then asked Jang Young-ran and In Kyo-jin when they become angry.
I’m overwhelmingly fatter. What are you going to do about it?
Jang said she reacts strongly when someone targets her family. She explained that she can complain about her husband herself, but becomes angry if another person criticizes him or says something about her son or daughter. In Kyo-jin said he loses his temper when he realizes an acquaintance is lying, adding that he ends up getting angry on his own.
The discussion turned to an audience member who had been criticized over appearance and weight. Lee said she also becomes angry when people comment on her body, despite earning her own money and choosing what to eat. She used her experience, including the repeated comparisons with Oh Eun-young, to illustrate the program’s theme of recognizing and handling sudden anger. Lee currently provides counseling and lectures on the show.
If I earn my own money, eat what I want and gain weight, I get angry when people say that I am fat or comment on my body.
