T-ara's Jiyeon is reportedly returning to promoting on YouTube admist divorce rumors.
Jiyeon took a hiatus from her YouTube channel due to "personal reasons" this past June, and according to reports on September 5, she'll be returning to posting videos soon. The T-ara member took a hiatus when rumors of her divorce from baseball player Hwang Jae Gyun sprang up this past June after a baseball broadcaster alleged the couple were separating.
However, the divorce rumors are being fueled once again after Hwang Jae Gyun was spotted drinking at a bar until the early morning. A tipster who claimed to be a fan of the baseball player stated, "Hwang Jae Gyun is the most senior player on the KT Wiz team, and we're in the middle of an important regular season. With the fall baseball season approaching, seeing a married man at a drinking party with the opposite sex until 6AM does not look good."
The tipster continued, "I believe such behavior is not appropriate for a baseball player. With the divorce rumors circulating, Hwang Jae Gyun's actions are even less understandable," sharing a clip of Hwang Jae Gyun at a bar.
In response, a close associate of Jiyeon commented to media outlets, "Seeing such photos can be hurtful, so we need to be cautious." Hwang Jae Gyun's side also stated, "It's true he went out drinking, but we cannot confirm who he was with as it's a private matter."
A KT Wiz official further commented, "When we asked Hwang Jae Gyun about it, he mentioned he drank after the game in Daejeon on August 31 and continued until the morning of September 1. September 1 was a day off with no games or training."
Stay tuned for updates.
