Space A member Kim Hyun-jung revealed recent news, including her marriage to a pastor husband and her return to activity as a singer.
Kim Hyun-jung appeared as a guest on episode 7 of "Haneulbit Hyanggi," released on the YouTube channel CGN on the 2nd. In a video titled "the story of going from a representative singer of the '90s to pastor's wife, and then being rehired(?) as a singer," she met and talked with announcer Kim Jae-won and comedian Song Pil-geun.
Announcer Kim Jae-won recently praised Kim Hyun-jung, mentioning that videos of events and performances by Space A members, including Kim Hyun-jung, surpassed 1 million views on YouTube. In response, Kim Hyun-jung laughed modestly and said, "Actually, when we were active we weren't that popular. We were active in the late 1990s alongside groups like H.O.T. and Sechs Kies, so that was the case. But now there are karaoke popularity rankings, so it seems people like our songs."
In fact, when she was taking a break from Space A activities, she made a living as a vocal trainer. However, she said she was also defrauded. Kim Hyun-jung confessed, "I was working as a vocal trainer when someone asked to borrow money. I was the type who couldn't say no and got led along, so I believed them when they said they'd pay me back the next day and lent the money without suspicion. But a week, a month passed and I didn't get it back," evoking sympathy.
The person who comforted Kim Hyun-jung was the pastor who is now her husband. Kim Hyun-jung confessed with a laugh, "I went to church feeling upset and frustrated. My husband was there. It was a time when I would cry even when singing praise, and he was serving as an education evangelist and sent me messages. Then I developed feelings for him." She added, "When I told people around me about the relationship, everyone laughed. My mother even said, 'You'll be punished if you do that.' Still, it was really nice when we were dating."
But life with a poor pastor could not be affluent. Even so, Kim Hyun-jung chose to marry. She said, "I knew my husband's circumstances and asked my mother, and she said, 'Money can be there or not be there, and it can be gone or come back, so find love no matter what.' I really thought it would be fine to live with my husband in a one-room place, and at that time I was earning well from vocal lessons, so I decided to marry thinking, 'I'll just earn the money.'" she said, creating a warm impression.
