Korean Star's Husband Affair Rumors: Wife Responds

YouTuber Yoo Hye-joo has spoken out about allegations of her husband, Jo Tteng's, infidelity. Yoo Hye-joo revealed the details in a video uploaded to her YouTube channel titled "I'm Speaking About My Husband's Affair for the First Time."

Yoo Hye-joo mentioned that she received a DM (direct message) during her first pregnancy alleging her husband had an affair with a flight attendant. She explained that she initially didn't respond, considering it baseless gossip, but decided to address it as the rumors continued to reach acquaintances and her editor. Her husband, Jo Tteng, also expressed his frustration, stating he was bewildered when he heard the rumors but let them pass because they were untrue.

Furthermore, Yoo Hye-joo shared that she recently replied to a DM about her husband during a trip, stating, "​I won't stand by if you say things that harm my family." She also claimed that fake news is spreading, alleging she stayed in the marriage and made her husband quit his job because of their child, despite knowing about his infidelity. She added that these stories have been circulating for three years and that if she or her husband had been unfaithful, they wouldn't have been able to create content.

Yoo Hye-joo married Jo Tteng, a former Korean Air purser, in 2019. They have one son and are currently expecting their second child, due at the end of July. Her husband, Jo Tteng, resigned from his position as a Korean Air purser in 2024 to focus on raising their son and managing his YouTube channel.
