‘Divorce’ Hwang Jung-eum, turns out to own a 4.6 billion won detached house... Flexes supercars too (because she‘s single)

‘Because I’m Single’ MC Hwang Jung-eum revealed her recent status after her divorce.

In the 9th episode of the SBS Plus·E Channel jointly produced entertainment show ‘Because I‘m Single’ that aired on the 4th, the story of Hwang Jung-eum, who revealed her daily life for the first time on a broadcast, and new ‘Solo Unnie’ Lee Min-young was depicted with the presence of 2 MCs Shin Dong-yup, Hwang Jung-eum, and ‘Solo Unnie’ Yoon Se-ah.

First, the small but special day of ‘Homebody’ Lee Min-young was revealed. Lee Min-young, who showed off her clear skin even though she only washed her face with water after waking up in the morning, explained, “My secret to taking care of myself is to not do bad things.” Afterwards, he introduced various parts of his ‘Solo House’, and the refrigerator with magnets from all over the world caught people’s attention.

Lee Min-young said, “Whether it‘s people or objects, the ones that last a long time are the best,” and added, “I like traveling, so I buy magnets from that country every time I go (overseas). I think I’ve been to about 20 countries.” He continued, “Everyone is excited around the end of the year, but I actually feel more depressed. Also, since my friends are busy with their families and children at the end of the year, it‘s hard to meet them, so I go alone. Every year, I celebrate the New Year in a different country.”

While preparing breakfast, Lee Min-young put various ingredients into yogurt, and then she squeezed a can of honey into her mouth and blew a ‘honey pop’, making everyone burst into laughter. Immediately after, he put on goggles and gloves and started cleaning diligently, and at the end, he showed off his ‘cleaning fanatic’ side by disassembling the vacuum cleaner and cleaning it thoroughly.

Also, Lee Min-young seemed to be resting in the living room, but suddenly wrote something in a notebook. Yoon Se-ah asked curiously, “Are you writing a love letter?” and Lee Min-young said, “I’m moving soon. I‘m going to call because I think I need to cancel my gym membership.” Immediately after, Lee Min-young wrote down expected questions and answers in a notebook and memorized them as if she was memorizing a script. She revealed her ‘extreme I’ tendency, saying, “When I have a conversation with someone I don’t know well or who is difficult for me, I write down notes in advance and practice. That way I feel at ease.” Finally, Lee Min-young, who had mentally prepared herself, called the gym, but she was at a loss as the conversation developed differently from the script, and she hung up the phone, making everyone laugh.

After a while, she went to the Pilates studio she usually goes to and tried to say goodbye, but she said, “I’ll come back next time,” adding to the “laughter.” Finally, she stopped by the house she’s moving into to check out the interior design. Here, too, she wasn’t able to ask any of the questions she had prepared in advance. In the end, after only listening to the manager’s explanation, Lee Min-young ran home, saying, “Thank you,” and relieved her stress by eating spicy ramen.

Following Lee Min-young’s “Extreme I,” this time, Hwang Jung-eum’s solo life was revealed. The “Jung-eum House,” which was a hot topic as a “4.6 billion won single-family home,” caught everyone’s attention with its spacious yard and living room with large windows. However, there is a commercial bathroom on the second floor of the house, and it is strange that it uses concrete finishing materials unlike ordinary houses.

Hwang Jung-eum confessed, “Actually, this house was rented out as an office. But I got divorced, so I needed a place to live urgently, and right then and there, the tenant was moving out, so I brought the kids in a hurry and am living there roughly.”

Immediately after, Hwang Jung-eum opened her eyes while sleeping with her two sons in the living room. Hwang Jung-eum, who was lovingly looking at her dependable first son Wang-sik and cute second son Kang-sik, went straight to school and got ready to go. Even in the midst of her hectic schedule, Hwang Jung-eum said, “The kids are growing up so fast, I want to take them all in with my eyes. That‘s why I unconditionally spend time with them whenever I have time,” and held their hands and walked to school together. In particular, she showed her confident ‘educational views’ by being endlessly affectionate to children and also being firm when she was strict.

Hwang Jung-eum, who went out, let out her excitement in a supercar. About this supercar, Hwang Jung-eum honestly confessed, “I bought it as a gift for myself when I first decided to get a divorce. It’s very expensive, so I have to work hard to earn money (to pay off the installment).” Shin Dong-yup asked, “Have you ever regretted buying that car?” Hwang Jung-eum said, “Not at all. I tend to spend the money I‘ll earn in the future rather than the money I have now. Then I wake up at dawn and work,” and preached ‘Jeong-eum-style thinking’ again.

Hwang Jung-eum also revealed the mental struggles she experienced after leaving the group Sugar and turning to acting. She said, “My self-esteem hit rock bottom because I thought my acting was lacking. So I gritted my teeth and practiced acting 24 hours a day. ”At that time, there were about ten acting teachers,“ she recalled.

When the children returned home, Hwang Jung-eum played tag and trampoline with them with all her body. Eventually, Hwang Jung-eum’s stamina was depleted, but she took care of her two sons by grilling meat for camping and even making curry udon. Hwang Jung-eum said, ”The best thing I‘ve done since I was born is giving birth to Wang-sik and Kang-sik,“ and ”There are good days and difficult days, but I’m the happiest person in the world because I have my two sons.“

The SBS Plus·E Channel jointly produced entertainment show ‘Because I‘m Solo’ airs every Tuesday at 8:40 p.m.
