Actress Hwang Jung-eum confessed that she took sleeping pills during her divorce proceedings.

On the 17th, SBS Plus and E Channel‘s ‘Because I’m Solo’ revealed Sa Kang‘s daily life.

On this day, Sa Kang visited a psychological counseling center for insomnia treatment. Sa Kang confessed, “I used to be a very good sleeper, but lately I’ve been waking up in the middle of the night. This kept happening, so it was hard and painful.”

Chae Rim also said, “I had really bad insomnia too. It was insomnia where I couldn‘t sleep at all,” and agreed, saying, “I should’ve slept a little after filming, but I couldn‘t. I was so out of it that I mistook foam cleansing for toothpaste and brushed my teeth.”

After hearing the story, Hwang Jung-eum said, “I’ve never taken sleeping pills while I was a celebrity. However, my sleep quality deteriorated around November 2023. He confessed, “I thought I was going crazy because I couldn’t sleep well.”

He continued, “At that time, I got some help from medicine (sleeping pills). But these days, I sleep so well that I snore as soon as I put my head up.” He showed a bright expression.
