Amidst the announcement of former T-ara member Areum’s remarriage while her divorce is not yet finalized, attention is drawn to the occupation of her new partner
On Dec 10th, Areum shared several couple photos on her Instagram with the caption, “Someone I want to be with has appeared by my side. As soon as the lawsuit is over, we will register our marriage. I promised to marry him.”
Areum, who gave birth to her second child at the end of last year, is reported to be in the midst of a divorce lawsuit with her ex-husband. Responding to a fan’s concern about the prolonged divorce proceedings, she commented, “The divorce lawsuit has been going on for over a year. How about me during that time? If you think about that aspect, you’ll probably understand.”
Fans were worried that Areum revealing her new partner while the divorce process is still ongoing might negatively impact the lawsuit.
Given the sudden news of Areum’s remarriage, netizens were curious about the identity of her new partner. Surprisingly, the remarriage partner revealed by Areum is writer Seo Dong-hoon, who participated in the movie “Believer 2”. Writer Kim Hee-jin is the main scriptwriter for “Believer 2”.
According to Newsen on Dec 11th, Seo Dong-hoon shared a photo of the “Believer 2” scenario on his SNS, stating, “Second feature film ‘Believer 2’.” He disclosed his involvement in the project like this.
Seo Dong-hoon also shared photos taken with Areum. He wrote, “From idol singer T-ara Areum to now actress Areum, beautiful and kind bestie Areum who will challenge new things and actively engage in various fields. Fans and Instagram friends, please support and love Areum.”
Areum joined T-ara as a new member in 2012 and participated in activities with the group, including the song “Day by Day”. However, she left the team in July 2013. In 2019, she married a businessman 2 years older than her and currently has 2 sons.
The couple appeared on TVING’s original program “Between Marriage and Divorce” last year and showed overcoming the divorce crisis, but they eventually faced a breakdown.
Areum, who had been relatively quiet, participated in JTBC’s “Sing Again Season 3” and showcased her talent. However, she failed to advance to the second round due to an off-pitch incident during her performance.
