On November 15, industry insiders revealed that former LABOUM member Yulhee has signed an exclusive contract with Highbeam Studio.
On November 10, a video titled "Hiking" was uploaded to Yulhee’s YouTube channel, 'Yulhee's House.'
In the video, Yulhee shared, “I used to manage things by being alone, reading books, sleeping, or chatting with my best friend. But now, I want to relieve stress in a healthier way. When I’m out in nature, I don’t have time for negative thoughts. Honestly, over the past year, I let a lot of things slip by. So, as this year comes to a close, I decided it’s not too late to find a healthier version of myself. I hope I can recover. I want to keep doing things I haven’t tried before to reconnect with Kim Yulhee.”
She continued, “In a way, divorce doesn’t change who I am, before or after. I’m still the same person, but my situation has changed. I think I kept trying to erase myself. Maybe it was because those were painful memories, but I felt that erasing those memories would help me move forward without hurting. I thought a lot about this over the past year. 'I don’t think I abandoned my children, but will they ever understand that? Was I too narrow-minded to get through it? If I were really committed to being their mom, should I have accepted this situation?’”
She added, “I don’t regret the decision to divorce. Because of all the speculation and criticism, I don’t regret it. I really want to say that I’m living my life happily without losing my role as a mother to my kids. I spoke out because I wanted to set the record straight. I’ve lived, and still live, as a mother who’s not ashamed in front of my kids. I didn’t want to be a mom they couldn’t be proud of.”
Yulhee also shared, “After this happened, I received so many messages. There were so many people who shared similar pain, wounds, or situations. More than I expected. I want to encourage people, especially those who might still be struggling to find their direction. I didn’t know how to handle things back then, and that’s why I went through what I did. Through *Yulhee’s Home,* I want to use my channel to encourage all of you as well.”
Meanwhile, Yulhee and former F.T. Island member Choi Min Hwan married in 2018 and have one son and two daughters together. However, after five years of marriage, they announced their divorce in December last year.
