Channel A's 'Detectives' Trade Secret' covered a case tracking a husband who, after losing his job, became engrossed in camping and was suspected of socializing with multiple women. He is the husband of an influencer with 120,000 followers.

On this day's 'Case Notebook' segment, an influencer who suspected her husband of infidelity filed a request for investigation. According to the client, her husband was asked to resign in his 40s and was subsequently diagnosed with depression. She suggested camping as a way to lift his spirits, but the trips gradually grew longer until he barely came home for nearly a month.

The husband started camping in a rural village where his maternal family's home was located, and at first, he seemed to be regaining his energy. However, the client began to suspect an affair when she personally witnessed him having a private conversation alone with a woman inside a tent. Unable to follow her husband directly due to her group-buying filming schedule, the client entrusted the investigation to a team of detectives.

The investigation revealed that the husband was not staying at a campsite but had separately rented a house in the countryside. Multiple local women were captured entering and exiting his residence at all hours, day and night. Four women were identified as suspected affair partners: a divorced woman, the head of the local women's association, a sixth cousin's wife, and an unidentified woman.

The client recalled her husband recently asking, 'How about I move to the countryside on my own?' and expressed her shock, suspecting that he had secured the house for the sake of another woman. The truth of the case, revealed afterwards, took a different turn than expected.

Sam Hammington appeared on the broadcast as a guest detective. He shared the news that his firstborn son, William, had won ice hockey championships in three countries: South Korea, Australia, and Canada. Sam Hammington revealed that William and the son of panelist attorney Nam Nam-tae are on the same ice hockey team and are close enough to celebrate their birthdays together.

While watching the 'Case Notebook,' Sam Hammington was asked, 'Can you understand the mindset of a camping cheater?' Flustered, he replied, 'Do I really have to answer this kind of question? What kind of show is this?' He then brought laughter to the set, saying, 'My wife and Attorney Nam's wife are close friends. I really need to be careful today. Even if my wife doesn't watch this broadcast, word will definitely get back to her.'

Upon the truth of the case coming to light, Defconn criticized the husband, calling him 'a devil wearing a mask of two faces.' Kim Poong remarked, 'He's an evil spirit, an evil spirit,' and Sam Hammington also showed an agitated response, calling him 'human trash.'
