'EXchange / Transit Love3' Iyoo-jeong directly spoke out about breakup rumors with Choi Chang-jin.
On the 9th, Iyoo-jeong answered a fan's question on her social account saying, "I saw an article that we broke up, but that's not true, right?"
She said, "Relationships are something that sometimes require long periods of reflection in life. Right now I think I'm exactly in that period. Please wait a little until I can make a proper choice according to my own standards," and added that regarding her relationship with Choi Chang-jin, "we need time to focus on ourselves and think. We are keeping in touch well."
She explained that unfollowing Choi Chang-jin was "a clumsy choice, but I became overwhelmed by people's judgments and gazes, and at some point keeping an eye on social media and exhausting myself felt like disillusionment, so it was my choice."
Afterward, Iyoo-jeong again addressed the breakup rumors in a community notice communicating with fans. She confessed, "A lot of people asked if we broke up. To be honest, even if we had broken up, making an announcement felt a bit silly. I couldn't say anything because I wondered if it was right to talk about a situation that isn't certain like now."
She continued, "I quietly sorted things out because I no longer wanted to be influenced by people's gazes or social media, but I didn't expect that would attract even more attention, and it took quite a long time until we could coordinate our thoughts," adding, "Honestly, I don't think I'm in a state where I can say it's 'completely over.' Some people asked for an announcement, messaged asking if we really broke up, and some even got angry, so I felt it was right to inform Yurangies of my situation first, which is why I'm leaving this."
In particular, Iyoo-jeong said, "Right now we are in Jeju. We had a big fight that made us consider breaking up, and after the originally scheduled flight to Jeju, we faced each other for the first time. Being here feels a bit like filming EXchange / Transit Love again. I think that's how relationships are. At first I thought, 'Ah, I should stop now!!!' and tried to settle my mind, but listening to the other person's side again made my thoughts change little by little," and she said she is in the process of repairing her relationship with Choi Chang-jin.
She added, "Right now I'm trying to be honest with myself rather than rushing to a conclusion. I'm sorry for worrying Yurangies, and I thought a lot about whether I should say this, but I still felt it was right to speak first. Please wait a little."
Meanwhile, Iyoo-jeong and Choi Chang-jin appeared as the X couple on TVING's EXchange / Transit Love3, which aired in 2023. The two reunited after ultimately choosing each other on the show, started posting 'lovestagram' on social media and confirmed their 'real relationship,' but recently unfollowing each other and deleting each other's photos sparked breakup rumors.
