Wife who also accompanied his mother to the hospital… Jung Seong-il, shocking news of separation after 9 years of marriage
[OSEN] Actor Jung Seong-il's fans were shocked by news that he has divorced by mutual agreement after nine years of marriage
Jung Seong-il's agency, XYZ Studio, said in an official statement on the 14th, "After long and careful consideration, we have decided to end the marriage," adding, "This was a decision made for each other's happiness without fault." The agency also asked that excessive speculation be restrained.
Jung Seong-il married a non-celebrity introduced by an acquaintance in 2016, and they built a happy home with one son. At one time, the warm love story he shared on You Quiz on the Block has been reexamined, increasing the sense of regret.
In particular, on You Quiz he revealed, "When my wife was in the United States, she and my mother maintained a connection through pen pals," and confessed, "When my mother was ill, my wife personally took her to the hospital and cared for her with devotion," which moved viewers.
But the couple who were the protagonists of that beautiful story ultimately went their separate ways. The agency said, "They decided to divorce by mutual agreement with respect for each other, and they are doing their best together when it comes to child rearing."
At the unexpected news of the divorce, internet users left messages of support such as "It was so warm on You Quiz that I can't believe it," "Recalling that she accompanied his mother to the hospital makes it even sadder," "It must have been a difficult decision," and "I hope they are both happy."
Meanwhile, Jung Seong-il is an actor who has demonstrated his presence with strong performances in numerous works such as tvN's The Glory and SBS's Escape of the Seven. Fans are quietly offering support, saying, "I hope he becomes stronger as an actor and as a father."
