Jung Ga-eun Opens Up About Her Ex-Husband on 'Dolsing Po Man'

On January 14, 2025, Jung Ga-eun made a candid appearance on SBS's variety show, Dolsing Po Man (신발벗고 돌싱포맨), where she openly discussed her past marriage. As the only divorcee on the show, she reflected on her life post-divorce, stating, "After my divorce, I declared that there would be no man in my life." She admitted that initially, she had no desire to see men at all, but her perspective has shifted over the years. "After a few years, I found myself feeling envious of couples who seem happy together, and I started to feel lonely. I want to date again, and if I meet a good person, I might consider remarrying," she revealed.

Her co-host, Lee Sang-min, chimed in, noting that Jung has been actively sharing her theater performances on social media, prompting laughter as the group teased him about possibly stalking her online. Kim Ji-sun humorously remarked that she recognized Jung's change in posture, adding to the light-hearted atmosphere. The age difference between Lee Sang-min, born in 1973, and Jung Ga-eun, born in 1978, was also discussed, with the group playfully suggesting it was a perfect match.

When the conversation turned to prayers for future partners, the group encouraged Lee Sang-min to specifically mention Jung Ga-eun's name. He responded, "Isn't it time for Jung Ga-eun to meet a good person?" while subtly revealing his interest, which elicited laughter from the audience.

Jung Ga-eun also shared that her ideal type has drastically changed since her divorce. "In the past, I thought chemistry was everything, but after experiencing betrayal, I realized that those feelings don't matter as much anymore," she said, alluding to her ex-husband's fraudulent actions. She candidly stated, "Now, I only look at credit scores when considering a partner," which led to more jokes about Lee Sang-min's suitability. He proudly claimed, "I’ve recovered to a score of 950 out of 1000!"

The playful banter continued, with Lee Sang-min admitting his interest in Jung Ga-eun, while fellow cast member Lim Won-hee humorously declared himself a model taxpayer, trying to make his own appeal.

Jung Ga-eun was previously married to a businessman of the same age in 2016, with whom she has a daughter. However, they divorced in 2018. In 2019, she made headlines when she accused her ex-husband of fraud, claiming he misappropriated approximately 13.2 billion won from an investment using her bank account before fleeing.
