On May 29th, TV talent Sayuri Matsumura appeared in the studio for the second episode of Abema's romance variety show "Goodbye Proposal via Spain." She revealed a "shocking remark" that a man once said to her.
The program follows couples who are hesitant to take the plunge into marriage as they make the decision to either get married or break up on the last day of a seven-day overseas trip.
On this day, 26-year-old apparel store clerk Keigo and his 29-year-old girlfriend Yawara, who runs an eyebrow salon, appeared. The two live together, with Keigo mainly in charge of the housework and devotedly supporting Yawara, who opened her salon last year and leads busy days, but they have a disagreement over how to divide the housework. Keigo confessed his true feelings, saying, "Right now, it feels like I'm like a housekeeper."
Matsumura, who was watching the exchange between the two in the studio, said she could empathize with them. "I've been told that in my life too. 'I'm not a housekeeper.' I had someone who did a great job (of housework) and I was spoiled. I was really told the same thing," she recalled.
When she said, "In the end, I don't do it because I don't have the time, but I said that I would do it if I had the time," her co-star Fujimoto Miki retorted, "Wow...that's an excuse for someone who doesn't do (housework)!"
