Actress Hwang Jung-eum is ending her marriage in 4 years and attention is keen on the reason for it.

According to C-Jess Entertainment, Hwang Jung-eum recently filed for divorce settlement with the court. Regarding the reason for divorce, the agency drew a line that it was a private matter and stated, "We will make sure the divorce goes smoothly".

Hwang Jung-eum married pro-golfer and businessman Lee Young-don in February of 2016. They met through a friend. Hwang Jung-eum then had a son in August of 2017.

The next year, Hwang Jung-eum returned with a drama called "The Undateables". She then continued to star in the JTBC drama "Mystic Pop-Up Bar" which ended in June this year and KBS 2TV drama "To All The Guys Who Loved Me" which ended on the 1st of September.

The public is even more shocked by the news of the breakup, as she has been actively communicating with fans through her social networking service (SNS) account, as well as her active acting career.

Among Hwang's recent activities, the atmosphere of the breakup seems to have been little known. The agency was also found to have been unaware of the crisis of Hwang Jung-eum's marriage, except for her closest aides. In addition, officials who worked with her in her latest work said they did not know about the incident, adding that they were surprised.

Among them, Hwang Jung-eum's purchase of a detached house in Itaewon-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul, in mid-May is also being reexamined. At that time, Hwang Jung-eum purchased a detached house with a floor space of 44.3 million won per 3.3 square meters and a floor space of 347 square meters to 200 square meters for 4.65 billion won. As a result, more attention is being paid to the news of the marriage collapse.

Meanwhile, Hwang Jung-eum debuted as a girl group Sugar in 2001. Since then, she has been working as an actress since leaving Sugar in 2004 and has continued her acting career in earnest by appearing in films such as "High Kick Through The Roof", "Giant" and "Can You Hear my Heart".
