Last month, Jiyeon posted several photos showing her current status on her personal Instagram account without any specific comments. Under the post, many netizens left supportive messages like, “No matter what anyone says, you’re the best,” “We’ll support whatever decision you make,” and “I hope you’re always happy.”
Earlier, Jiyeon married baseball player Hwang Jae-gyun in 2022, receiving congratulations from many. However, recently, divorce rumors surfaced. The speculation began when it was mentioned on NN PowerFM radio by commentator Lee Gwang-gil and a broadcaster. A representative from Jiyeon’s former agency denied the rumor, stating that Jiyeon confirmed it was not true.
Before the divorce rumors, in June, Hwang Jae-gyun faced criticism for a bench-clearing incident during a game. As a result, malicious comments were also directed at Jiyeon’s personal Instagram and YouTube channel, leading her to temporarily stop her YouTube activities.
On September 5, OSEN reported that Hwang Jae-gyun was drinking at a bar until 6 a.m. According to the report, he was drinking with a group that included women until early in the morning. A KT Wiz representative clarified to OSEN that Hwang Jae-gyun had confirmed he drank until the morning of September 1st after a game in Daejeon, stating that it was his day off without any scheduled games or training.
Meanwhile, Jiyeon recently announced her return to YouTube.
