Ji Yeon Soo Raises Son Min Soo Alone

Singer Eli, formerly of the group U-KISS, has announced his remarriage, drawing attention to the current situation of his ex-wife, broadcaster Ji Yeon-soo. Eli announced his remarriage on his social media on the 11th, sharing wedding photos and expressing his affection and gratitude for his fiancée. Along with Eli's remarriage news, Ji Yeon-soo's current life, raising their son Min-soo alone after their divorce in 2020, is also gaining attention. The two had even shown the possibility of reconciliation by appearing on TV Chosun's "We Divorced 2," but ultimately went their separate ways.

Recently, Ji Yeon-soo shared her current situation through her social media, revealing that she had settled her life in Jeju and moved to Seoul due to family health issues. She also announced that she was starting a new challenge after her contract with her company ended. In the photos she shared, Ji Yeon-soo is seen conducting classes with children or smiling brightly while holding artwork, showcasing her youthful beauty, bright energy, and stable demeanor.

Currently, Ji Yeon-soo is working as an instructor for 'Book&Plant,' where she teaches classes for children and adults using flowers and plants. She holds Level 1 certifications as a storytelling picture book instructor, a professional florist, an urban agriculture instructor, and a children's art instructor, and operates related educational programs. Ji Yeon-soo stated, "​The studies I started to understand a child's heart led me to a new career," and she communicates with people through flowers and plants.

Meanwhile, Ji Yeon-soo appeared on KBS 2TV's "Capitalist School" broadcast on the 10th, where she revealed that she had been a credit delinquent in the past due to financial difficulties and felt sorry for not being able to buy her son Min-soo a single chicken when he was young. On the broadcast at the time, Ji Yeon-soo stated that she worked hard at part-time jobs and cleared her credit delinquent status, and is currently working at two companies, one related to plants and another for dogs, while also doing YouTube filming and live shopping broadcasts.

However, after the broadcast, posts questioning the authenticity of Ji Yeon-soo's statements on "Capitalist School" appeared on the viewer's 게시판. A netizen, identified as A, claimed that Ji Yeon-soo evoked sympathy by mentioning being a credit delinquent and working at a mask factory on the broadcast, while not explaining suspicions about her past actions and luxury sneakers and clothing. A also claimed that Ji Yeon-soo was scheduled to appear on EBS's "Paranmanjang" last year, but due to their tip-off, the broadcast was canceled and the filmed content was deleted five hours before airing.
