"The Newlyweds" - the military version aired, with Quoc Thuan and Thanh Van Hugo - meeting the couple Major Pham Ngoc Toan (45 years old) and Quach Thi Tam (40 years old), both working at Department 862, Technical Support Center of Navy Region 2.
The couple brings interesting moments to the audience with their love story and marriage "what you hate, God gives you" for 20 years.
According to the sharing, Ngoc Toan and Quach Thi Tam met at a friend's house but neither had a good impression of each other.
The wife said: "The first time I saw him, I hated him because he talked nonsense. We seemed to have a disagreement so we kept talking back and forth. Then, when I was about to leave, he said he would take me home. I didn't like it so I left first, he followed me, and that's how we got to know each other."
Continuing, Ngoc Toan humorously said: "I also hate her, so I had to go see where the house was, see what it was like to talk, she kept cutting me off."
The couple's most memorable moment was when Ngoc Toan asked Quach Thi Tam directly: "I've registered my marriage. Will you marry me?"
At that time, both of them confirmed that they did not truly love each other but still decided to get married.
The couple also jokingly joked that they got married because one was worried the other would be "left over".
"In the past, in the unit, all the women (comrades) were married. If he didn't marry me, he would probably be single. I like soldiers, so when he proposed, I thought that no one had ever asked me to marry them before, but now that someone had asked, I might as well marry them to have a husband. So we got married," the wife said.
After getting married, Ngoc Toan showed himself to be a responsible and resourceful man who took care of his family. Quach Thi Tam said that when she gave birth or had to go to school far from home, her husband could take care of the children himself.
Before, the two often argued, but since getting married, they have shown care and love for each other and their love has gradually blossomed.
When sharing about his married life, Ngoc Toan was told by his wife about a series of bad habits such as being hot-tempered with his wife and children when under pressure from work, being jealous but not saying anything and then getting angry, and not allowing his wife to participate in social work.
Whenever they argued, he never apologized to his wife or made peace first. Ngoc Toan is not a romantic man.
On the contrary, Ngoc Toan thinks his wife is so wonderful that there is nothing to criticize.
