The most impressive attitude shown by Shim Soo-chang is his respect and sense of responsibility for his past relationships. In the process of deciding to remarry, he went through the process of directly seeking consent from his ex-wife, which can be said to be a redefinition of divorce as ‘a new form of distancing in support of each other’s future’ rather than simply ‘the end of a relationship’. The public often considers it a taboo to mention an ex-spouse after divorce or makes it an object of criticism, but Shim Soo-chang chose to end this relationship maturely and wish each other happiness. The fact that his ex-wife also readily supported his remarriage suggests that the conflict that had built up between them has been sufficiently resolved and they have reached a stage where they respect each other's lives. This image flies in the face of our society's prejudice that stigmatizes divorce as a failure, and proves that a mature breakup can be a healthy foundation for a new beginning.

But his journey toward remarriage is not all rosy. Currently, he has started renting an officetel and is standing at a completely new starting line economically and environmentally. Leaving behind his brilliant days as a baseball player, his daily life in a small space alone after his divorce must have made him feel the weight of life completely different from before. In particular, joining a unique group called ‘6th Grade Club’ hosted by Yang Sang-guk and humorously sublimating his situation appears to be a strategic choice to gain momentum for healing by exposing his wounds rather than hiding them. In his paradoxical expression, ‘I feel good even though I feel dirty,’ there is a combination of the bitterness of letting go of the past and facing reality, and at the same time, the excitement of finding a new relationship.

Shim Soo-chang's appearance on the air is full of efforts to objectify his past. When asked about the reason for his divorce, he cannot easily keep his mouth shut and appears distressed. This shows that he is not simply using remarriage for viewer ratings, but is seriously revisiting his painful past. The part where he jokingly scolds Yang Sang-guk, who hosted a wedding in the past, saying, “Life has gone awry since then,” is not an attempt to blame others for one’s bad luck, but rather a unique communication method that sublimates the heavy atmosphere by sublimating it into laughter. This self-objectification is interpreted as a pledge not to repeat the mistakes he made in his previous marriage as he prepares for remarriage, and as a preparation for meeting a more mature partner.

Shim Soo-chang’s remarriage challenge goes beyond simply the story of one man’s marriage, and presents a model for how to live ‘life after divorce.’ He expressed his strong desire for a second generation, making it clear that he wanted a real family to share his life with, not just a companion to soothe his loneliness. It takes great courage to reveal one's vulnerability through the medium of broadcasting, but through this, he tries to gain public sympathy and prove his sincerity. Of course, there are many variables before a meeting through a broadcast leads to a realistic marriage, but the honesty and sense of humor he shows in the process further highlights his human charm. His decision to believe in the value of love again without fear of failure is providing comfort and courage to many people going through similar pain.
