Recently, T-ARA’s Jiyeon announced her divorce from baseball player Hwang Jae Gyun. This news makes fans look back at Jiyeon’s past relationships and can’t help but feel sorry for her.
2 year relationship with Lee Dong Gun
On July 4, 2015, actor Lee Dong Gun and Jiyeon were caught hanging out together by netizens. As a result, their relationship started 2 months earlier when they collaborated on a drama. When they first went public with their relationship, the public didn’t show much support due to their 13-year age difference. Furthermore, T-ARA were being boycotted by the public due to their alleged bullying scandal.
The two announced their breakup due to busy schedules 2 years later. However, less than a month after the breakup, Dispatch released photos of Lee Dong Gun and his new girlfriend Jo Yoon Hee secretly dating. In almost 2 years together, Lee Dong Gun has rarely appeared in public with Jiyeon. However, Lee Dong Gun openly expressed his feelings for his new girlfriend.
Jung Joon Young: the culprit of the scorching sun
On April 19, 2017, Korean media suddenly reported rumors that Jiyeon and Jung Joon Young were dating. As a result, Jiyeon and Jung Joon Young were said to have been dating for about a month and the couple was often seen hanging out together.
However, both management companies immediately denied the rumor, stating that the two were just close friends in a group of 10 friends. However, in August 2018, rumors about Jiyeon and Jung Joon Young broke out again.
As soon as the rumor spread, both Jiyeon and Jung Joon Young were heavily criticized. The reason was because Jung Joon Young was involved in a sexual harassment lawsuit filed against his ex-girlfriend. Jung Joon Young was later revealed to be involved in the “Burning Sun” scandal that shook Korea and the world.
Song Jae Rim
On May 19, 2020, Korean media reported that Jiyeon was dating actor Song Jae Rim. The relationship formed after the two collaborated on the drama “I Wanna Hear Your Song”. Later, Jiyeon’s management company denied the rumors and said that the two were just close friends.
Fans, however, reacted quite positively to the news of the two dating. Many said that Jiyeon and Song Jae Rim were a beautiful couple. Although they were “shipped” with enthusiasm, the two showed no “hint” of dating.
Sehun (EXO)
The dating rumor broke out when netizens discovered a series of matching details on both of their social networks. According to fan speculations, the two met in 2015 and dated around 2018-2019 because they started sharing more things on social networks during that time.
In 2018, Jiyeon went abroad to film the MV of the song “Take A Hike”. Coincidentally, the MV commemorative photos are quite similar to Sehun’s. Additionally, Jiyeon also liked a photo of Sehun taken with other male artists. However, despite the public’s heated speculation, there was no more reliable coincidence between the two.
Ex-husband: Baseball player Hwang Jae Gyun
Recently, Jiyeon announced to fans that she had divorced her husband, baseball player Hwang Jae Gyun. The two were married for almost 2 years and were admired by many people for their love.
Their divorce rumors were first raised by a sports commentator and Hwang was later spotted at a bar until dawn with an unknown girl.
