    Honestly, I have an open mind and don’t care much about age difference, but 27 and 15 is a bit too much haha
    I can understand 20 and 32 though. Honestly, biologically, full growth is high school, middle school is pedophilia

    If they dated from 15 years old, it falls under pedophilia. I’ve long suspected involvement with Chinese Korean entertainment deep state. Surely there are no people who haven’t noticed that Chinese hold influence over Korean entertainment?

    Faced with disclosed photos and texts, what legal action is he planning? There’s undeniable evidence, and the fact they dated while Kim Sae-ron was a minor and Kim Soo-hyun an adult is true, personal issues aside, if family’s claims of unfair financial contracts hold, then Kim Soo-hyun did wrong.

    I confidently bet everything, life included, that those criticizing IU have never regularly donated even 100,000 won annually or done anything contributing to society.
    This isn’t about IU donating a lot or doing good things

    I’m confident that those criticizing have never donated or volunteered meaningfully
    I’m sure, I would bet everything on it
    It’s not about amount like millions or billions like celebrities,

    Even 100,000 won a year? 50,000 won is less than 5,000 a month
    If not financially possible, volunteer, visit stray dog centers to do meaningful work
    People who do never fill their heads with vulgar thoughts to degrade others, backbite, troll, and harm.
    It’s facts.

    Once again, I’m confident, those criticizing IU all have issues themselves.
    Flawless statement.

    Above mentally unstable illusionists should be sued and end life in prison.
    Korean jealousy over success is severe.
    Understand that some netizens hating IU due to envy stems from Chinese, Japanese envy,
    But Koreans irrationally nitpick, instigate, mislead due to envy.

    100% certain, Koreans hating IU likely don’t live properly
    Those leading successful, dignified lives all watch IU dramas, none criticize
    But those with job issues or struggling inexplicably say they won’t watch certain shows without reason
    Political stance irrelevant, criticize meal payments like selling the nation
    Silence is better if plebian, avoid hating others with your low life.

Kim Sung-eun said, “I recently created a (YouTube) content about my tuition fees” and added, “Suddenly, ‘Jung Jo-guk salary’ appeared in search terms. The costs were paid with my money,” expressing her frustration.

She continued, “People assume I don’t earn and spend my husband’s money on tuition fees,” she added, “It’s unfair. I’m also working hard to earn money.”

Byul replied, “Even if we earn decently, because our husbands are more famous, we also get caught in that rumor,” showing empathy. Kim Sung-eun asked, “Aren’t you misjudged too?” to which Byul responded, “I experience it too.”

Kim Sung-eun married Jung Jo-guk in 2009 and they have two sons and a daughter.

Recently, on her YouTube channel ‘Happy Kim Sung-eun’, she revealed that the tuition for her second-grade daughter and five-year-old youngest son amounts to 3.25 million won a month.

At the time, Kim Sung-eun said, “I don’t earn this much yet the money goes out like this. The situation for the eldest son Tae-ha isn’t included. Kindergarten and school fees are not included in this, it’s really shocking,” she said.
