Broadcaster Hong Jin Kyung directly revealed the news of her divorce from her non-celebrity husband for the first time through Jeong Sun Hee's YouTube channel.
According to OSEN's coverage on the 6th, Hong Jin Kyung confirmed that she appeared directly on Jeong Sun Hee's YouTube channel that day to share her feelings about the divorce. Currently, Hong Jin Kyung is staying overseas, and it was reported that the filming for Jeong Sun Hee's YouTube was done in advance before the divorce news broke.
Earlier, a media outlet reported on the divorce between Hong Jin Kyung and her non-celebrity husband. It was said that the two agreed to devote more time to their respective lives and signed the divorce papers.
Amid this, Hong Jin Kyung decided to reveal her stance on the divorce for the first time on the YouTube channel of her 30-year close friend Jeong Sun Hee. On the same day in the morning, a video titled "The first story Hong Jin Kyung shared in front of her 30-year close friend Jeong Sun Hee, I wanted to tell you first..." was uploaded to Jeong Sun Hee's YouTube channel 'Jeong Sun Hee Who Left Home.' She expressed her feelings, stating that when Jeong Sun Hee asked if she was okay, she replied, "I am doing well these days. Rael is doing great too, and is getting along well with her dad. But it's unfortunate that we finally regained our true friendship only after we became strangers."
Jeong Sun Hee was also the first person to inform about Hong Jin Kyung's divorce. Jeong Sun Hee said, "Actually, I knew about this. I heard a few months ago that you had divorced, but you didn't tell anyone. Since then, I've been sweating nervously. But today you said, 'Sister, I can talk comfortably,'" while Hong Jin Kyung explained, "I've been thinking about when to talk about this. Can I just let it flow without saying anything? But isn't that also a kind of deception? My heart has always been heavy, but I didn't know the right timing or how to share it. However, I am someone who always shares everything with you. So if a situation arises where I need to talk about this, I wanted to do it in front of you, because I can be completely honest with you."
Jeong Sun Hee also added, "That's why I kept saying, 'Shouldn't you talk about it on your channel?' When you told me you wanted to share it with me, all the times we've spent together flashed before my eyes," and Hong Jin Kyung stated, "You were always there when Rael was dating her dad, and you're the one who knows all our stories."
In particular, it was revealed that Jeong Sun Hee is the same age as Hong Jin Kyung's husband. Jeong Sun Hee said, "I have Rael's dad's number. Didn't I hear about the divorce a few months ago? Should I erase it or not? I'm contemplating," while Hong Jin Kyung urged, "Why erase it? He's your friend. I'm getting along very well with him." Jeong Sun Hee replied, "I still have the number. We are not in touch, but whether to delete it or not is quite symbolic. I can't contact Rael's dad, but it's a bit awkward to call him." Hong Jin Kyung responded, "Why not? Let's have a drink together, just like before," showing a cool attitude.
Jeong Sun Hee remarked, "I hope our subscribers understand that there's a deep history here. It was a strong friendship. We used to be three, then four, but I left first, and now we are three," while Hong Jin Kyung added, "That ex-boyfriend of yours from back then, Rael's dad still contacts me. Our relationship is very intertwined."
Jeong Sun Hee also said, "I believe that your fans who love you will understand how much you hesitated to make this decision to announce the divorce and how intense the thoughts were until the announcement. In any case, a new page has begun," while Hong Jin Kyung expressed her gratitude, saying, "Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to talk about this on your channel today," and jokingly added, "Sister, if I find out about your remarriage through the news article, I won't hold back then." To this, Jeong Sun Hee responded, "My remarriage will be on your channel. Let's trade off."
Meanwhile, Hong Jin Kyung married her husband, a businessman five years older than her, in May 2003, and welcomed her daughter, Rael, in 2010. However, she recently ended her 22-year marriage and became a stranger. Hong Jin Kyung's agency, TN Entertainment, confirmed, "It's true that Hong Jin Kyung has ended her marriage with her non-celebrity husband," but added, "We cannot confirm the detailed reasons for this." In response, Hong Jin Kyung explained through Jeong Sun Hee's YouTube channel, "We didn't separate because of anyone's fault. We just thought it was time to live differently," and stated, "He is a very good brother to me now."
