Korean netizens are reacting to the unexpected news surrounding former T-ara member Ahreum’s divorce and her announcement of a new marriage.
As previously reported, Ahreum made headlines by revealing her divorce after four years of marriage and introducing her new partner, whom she plans to marry once the legal proceedings are resolved. On an online forum, netizens raised questions about the apparent inconsistencies in Ahreum’s past statements regarding her marriage.
Back in June 2022, there were speculations about her separation from her husband following an appearance on ‘Between Marriage and Divorce.’ However, a month later, Ahreum surprised everyone by announcing her second pregnancy, stating, “My husband even cooks for me now. My second child is a treasure because everything in our house changed, and we’re happy now. We both wanted a second child. It wasn’t a mistake! We’re thinking of a third child as well!”
This timeline left netizens puzzled, as it seemed to contradict Ahreum’s recent public announcement that she and her husband had effectively ‘separated’ “several years ago,” without undergoing the “legal formalities.”
Netizens expressed their opinions on the perceived ‘overlap’ between Ahreum’s marriages and questioned her decision to make her new relationship public. They also voiced concerns about how this might impact her ongoing lawsuit and raised skepticism toward her sudden announcement of plans to establish a philanthropic foundation for children.
Reactions include:
“She basically wrote that it was hard for her to get a divorce since her husband didn’t want to sign the papers. Why did she announce it to the whole world that she has another lover? Isn’t it bad for the lawsuit if she does this?”
“Why is she publicly sharing information that won’t be beneficial to her?”
“She gave birth last year in December and yet they were effectively separated? What?”
“So, she is saying that they were not legally divorced for years when they essentially were but that they still had a child recently….?”
“Omg I think she has acted a bit impulsively here
“Something is fishy”
“I hope she gets better soon…She was unwell since her appearance on the program”
“We call this cheating…”
“She basically told everyone to leave words of support or else she will sue everyone”
“This is so shady the way she suddenly announced plans to launch a non-profit organization under her name”
“She and her husband had a child last year in December…? That doesn’t sound like a real separation”
“So, is she saying that she basically started a new relationship without having formally left the previous one?”
