Alternative marital arrangements are increasingly popular as couples seek to preserve family ties while avoiding divorce
In the bustling heart of Seoul, Yoon Jeong-hee and Park Nam-Cheol share a beautifully furnished apartment filled with family photos and mementos of their life together. Yet behind this seemingly happy home, they lead entirely separate lives.
Park, a 64-year-old retiree, spends most of his days tending a garden and residing in his shipping container house in his childhood hometown of Jeonju. Meanwhile, his wife, Yoon, a 59-year-old gas meter reader, enjoys her urban life in Seoul, participating in cultural events and taking long walks on mountain trails with her friends during her time off work.
