Ex-Married Yook Kkaet-ip Earns $70K/Month

Creator Yoo Kkeltip revealed her current situation of working a part-time job at a cafe despite earning hundreds of millions of won. Her daily life as a beauty and fashion influencer was featured on TV Chosun's "X's Private Life."

On the broadcast, her ex-husband Choi Gogi appeared and watched Yoo Kkeltip's current life alongside her. Yoo Kkeltip recalled the time she left with nothing after the divorce, receiving no alimony or division of assets, and struggled financially for months with no income. However, she revealed that through continuous effort, she became a popular creator, earning up to 70 million won per month, surprising the cast.

Despite her impressive income, Yoo Kkeltip showed a down-to-earth side by using public transportation. Lacking a driver's license, she traveled by bus and subway and visited a plastic surgery clinic in Apgujeong to focus on content creation. She demonstrated a strong work ethic, not stopping filming even while enduring the pain of a procedure to deliver vivid information to her subscribers. Kim Gura expressed his deep admiration for this. Yoo Kkeltip was building trust with her subscribers by incorporating her experiences into her content.

In addition to her creator activities, Yoo Kkeltip revealed she is working a "second job" as a part-time employee at a cafe. She explained that due to the irregular income of freelancers, she needed a stable source of income to consistently provide for her daughter's upbringing expenses. Despite being a celebrity earning a fortune, her daily work at the cafe demonstrated her responsibility as a mother and her determination to be self-reliant. Yoo Kkeltip emphasized that this choice was solely for her child, revealing a mature outlook on life.

Meanwhile, Choi Gogi and Yoo Kkeltip married in 2016 due to a premarital pregnancy and had their daughter, Solip, two months later. However, they divorced after four years. Choi Gogi is living with his girlfriend of five years, who has been the PD for Choi Gogi's parenting channel for the past two years. Choi Gogi is currently raising their daughter alone.
