On the 23rd, former T-ara member Jiyeon grabbed attention from fans with an update on her social media, asking "How are u" and sharing new photos.
In the pictures, Jiyeon emanates a unique charm even in ordinary situations, displaying her ageless beauty.
Particularly, Jiyeon seemed more relaxed and comfortable, showing a brighter expression about four months after her separation from baseball player Hwang Jae Kyun—a detail that many viewers noticed.
Fans and internet users were thrilled by the long-awaited update, leaving comments like "Please post more photos," "I missed you so much," and "I really missed you."
Jiyeon tied the knot with Hwang Jae Kyun in December 2022, but their relationship later faced divorce rumors that gained significant media attention. Following a period of silence, they eventually entered into divorce mediation in October of the preceding year, and the divorce was officially finalized in November.
During that time, Jiyeon expressed, "I apologize for sharing this unfortunate news with you. After thorough discussions, we have mutually agreed to proceed with the divorce mediation process. I promise to present an improved version of myself in the future."
Presently, Jiyeon has been on a hiatus from official engagements since the T-ARA 15th Anniversary Fan Meeting in Macau in October of last year.
