an unprecedented 'Both-in-law suit'..Park Ji-yoon and Choi Dong-seok are responsible for the breakdown of their marriage
Park Ji-yoon and Choi Dong-seok, a former announcer, filed a lawsuit against each other while controlling the divorce, entering an unprecedented divorce lawsuit.

According to the legal community on the 30th of last month, Park Ji-yoon filed a lawsuit against Choi Dong-seok's female acquaintance A in June.

He filed a lawsuit against A, claiming to be Choi Dong-seok's businesswoman. News of the breakup of the two was announced in October last year, but if the marriage broke down due to A's affair at the time, it should also be in the main lawsuit, but there was no details of A's funeral on the main issue.

Therefore, Choi Dong-seok immediately "It is true that the acquaintance was sued by Park Ji-yoon. However, during his marriage to Park Ji-yoon, he said, "There was nothing illegal and he was just an acquaintance. We will respond strongly to defamation caused by groundless evidence." Moreover, Choi Dong-seok immediately took out a 'bully card' to Park Ji-yoon, identifying male B as a man in mourning and claiming an affair during marriage. Choi Dong-seok argued that `Unlike the original draft, the mutual lawsuit had to be known to the outside world, so the lawsuit was postponed to protect the children.' `Park Ji-yoon's affair happened during her marriage.'

In response, an official from JDB Entertainment, Park Ji-yoon's agency, said "It is difficult to check the contents of the private company lawsuit one by one."However, it is Park Ji-yoon's official position that there was no relationship other than cheating or spouse during the marriage period as well as during the subsequent litigation."

In addition, it was belatedly known that Park Ji-yoon sent a proof of content to the production team of TV Chosun entertainment show `Now I'm Alone' at the end of June, when Choi Dong-seok's lawsuit was filed. It contains a content against Choi Dong-seok's appearance in 'Now I'm Alone'. In response, Park Ji-yoon said "As it is an observational entertainment program dealing with life after divorce, it contains the content that he does not want himself and his children to come out as Choi Dong-seok's contents."

He also added that he does not intend to interfere with Choi Dong-seok's livelihood and opposes broadcasting as divorce proceedings are still underway.

Following the pilot, Choi Dong-seok will also appear regularly in 'Now Alone' ahead of his first broadcast after the regular programming on the 8th. Choi Dong-seok said, "I don't intend to drop out of "I'm alone"."

In addition, both sides denied the allegations, saying there was no misconduct.

Meanwhile, Choi Dong-seok married announcer-turned-TV personality Park Ji-yoon in 2009 and had one son and one daughter, but reported the divorce in October last year. Currently, the two are in conflict over custody issues. As the court considers intimacy with children, the two are posting their fun time with their children as if they are competing on their SNS.
