Actress Hwang Jung Eum (39) and basketball player Kim Jong Kyu (33, Wonju DB Promy) have decided to end their relationship just two weeks after publicly confirming they were dating.
According to E-Daily on August 5, the couple has recently broken up. A close source revealed that while they were cautiously getting to know each other, the public attention created pressure, leading them to remain good friends instead. Their relationship was first reported on July 22, with sources noting they grew close by supporting each other through difficult times.
Korean netizens commented:
"His parents must have been shocked, haha."
"Jong Kyu, it's a relief. You're young, so you can find someone better."
"Living life like a mystery adventure quest."
"I hope you find someone better. Good luck, Jung Eum!"
"Everything she does is so dramatic; aren't you worried the kids will see all this online someday?"
"I've always thought she was overly dramatic in everything she does."
"Dating while in the middle of a divorce? That's not right."
"Legally, she's still married. Is public dating appropriate?"
"It wasn't going to lead to marriage anyway, but they broke up quickly. Jong Kyu's parents must be angry."
"Hwang Jung Eum, what's going on? Do you think life is a joke? Act carefully."
