To everyone who has supported me,
Thank you so much for your warm words and encouragement as always. It is a personal matter, but there is something I want to tell you guys. I previously married a non-celebrity. We married each other after undertaking that we both sincerely respect and treasure each other. We have both taken a few things into consideration in order to protect each other and have overcome things together. As we lived like that, the situation where my wife was not able to take a single step outside the house continued to happen. She acted so as to protect me, and has been supportive of me.
Currently, a variety of media outlets have been acting in an untoward way, verbally harassing, stalking, investigating and publishing without permission, involving my non-celebrity wife, her family, or those related to her, as well as my family, and those related to me. Even in our own homes, there were times where suspicious people would come by, even screaming at us.
But as I was unskilled in dealing with it, currently, it is very difficult for us to bear this, and it is hard to continue to protect ourselves if the situation continues. Considering the chances that the situation will continue, even if it temporarily gets better, thinking of the future and her happiness, in order for her happiness to not be limited, we have decided to get divorced.
Moving forward, I sincerely beseech of you, to stop all the harassment, stalking, and untoward behavior towards my non-celebrity [former] partner, her family and those related to her, as well as towards those of mine.
Please continue to support me in the future.

In November, former girl group member Seo Sarang announced that she divorced her husband, Lee Jung Hwan. Not long after appearing on Between Marriage And Divorce (translated title from 결혼과 이혼 사이), the actress accused her husband of domestic abuse, and Lee Jung Hwan denied the allegations.
Seo Sarang | WikitreeIn her Instagram post, which has since been deleted, she announced that after one year of divorce proceedings, her legal battle with her now ex-husband had ended.
My lovelies… It’s finally over… LOL. My legal battle has finally ended after over a year. For whatever reason, after receiving the notice from my lawyer, I started crying.
It isn’t only because of the divorce. Thinking about my life, there were times that I was angry at the world and wondered why, at this age, I was going through things some people may never experience in their lifetime. But now, these experiences have strengthened me. I think I have matured to where now I can love all of my good and bad experiences :).
