I was surprised to see my divorce article sent by an acquaintance"I expected it and prepared my mind, but I remembered the time when I was embarrassed.



Woo Ji-won revealed the details of her marriage and divorce from her ex-wife. "After marriage, my first daughter was born and I was happy, but I couldn't come home often because I was in the middle of my career, so I had more fights with my wife," he said.

As the children see it, I want to end the fight, but when my wife's words were confirmed, I threw a fan in my hand to the floor and the police came home. My wife reported it and I went to the police station to be investigated and hurt each other." However, he stressed that the case was not a decisive trigger for the divorce.
