Her divorce had just been confirmed.
On October 5, 2024 (KST), Korean news confirmed this T-NOW‘S Jiyeon and baseball star Hwang Jae Gyun they asked for a divorce. The official update came after the couple sidestepped and/or denied divorce speculation for months.
Then, a few days after the news broke, Jiyeon was spotted in Macao at a fanmeeting held to celebrate the 15th anniversary of T-ARA’s debut. The event marked the idol’s first public appearance since announcing her divorce, so when she became emotional and burst into tears at the end of the event, she made headlines for her emotional response.

As Jiyeon commented via her divorce lawyer, it seems like the idol is really trying hard to “brings better news” for his fans.
Hi, I’m Jiyeon. First of all, I want to express my apologies for giving you such unfortunate news. Hwang Jae Gyun and I have mutually agreed to undergo mediation proceedings for our divorce. I ask for your understanding for not addressing this issue sooner. I will try to greet you with better news in the future. Thank you.
