Choi Sooyoung shares casual date with Uhm Jeong-hwa

Girls' Generation member and actress Choi Sooyoung has shared glimpses of her daily life with senior actress Uhm Jeong-hwa following the end of her long-term relationship. The two enjoyed a relaxed outing, displaying natural smiles and a close bond.

Uhm recently posted several photos on her Instagram with the caption, “A pleasant date with Sooyoung!!!”

In the photos, Uhm is seen wearing a black sleeveless top paired with white pants and a long white muffler. Standing side-by-side against a brick wall, the two created a comfortable vibe, smiling brightly toward the camera.

In subsequent shots, Uhm stands in front of a glass window, while Choi, carrying a large black shoulder bag, leans forward with a playful expression. Rather than stylized pictorial poses, the candid scenes captured during their outing highlight the intimacy between the two.

The relaxed atmosphere continued at a cafe, where Uhm and Choi took selfies with their drinks, smiling brightly in a space featuring a menu board and counter. In another photo, Uhm sits in an interior decorated with wooden shelves and glass perfume bottles, sporting her signature bright expression.

A close-up of Choi was also shared. With a window as her backdrop, her bright smile and natural hairstyle showcased her characteristic sophisticated image.

This meeting draws additional attention as it follows recent news regarding Choi's personal life. Known as one of the entertainment industry's most prominent long-term couples through her 14-year relationship with actor Jung Kyung-ho, it was recently reported that she has ended things with her longtime partner. The two reportedly drifted apart as their respective schedules became busier, eventually leading to the decision to part ways.

Following the end of the long-standing relationship, Choi's recent social media activity focuses less on the breakup and more on her life as an actress and individual. In particular, her comfortable time with her senior colleague, Uhm, is being viewed as a testament to her moving forward.

Uhm and Choi also maintain a professional connection. The two previously worked together on the film 'Okay Madam 2,' showcasing their acting chemistry, and are known to maintain a natural friendship beyond their senior-junior dynamic.

Born in 1969, Uhm is a legendary entertainer who has remained at the center of popular culture for decades, moving seamlessly between singing and acting. Since the 1990s, she has built a unique legacy across music, film, and drama, constantly evolving her image throughout her career.

Born in 1990, Choi has been expanding her presence as an actress while balancing her activities with Girls' Generation. Recently, she has been broadening her range by taking on stage roles in plays such as 'The Merchant of Venice.'

Ultimately, these photos highlight the warmth of the daily lives shared by the two actresses rather than their glamorous fame. The sight of Uhm, a long-standing icon, and Choi, an actress carving out new territories, laughing together serves as a scene of camaraderie that transcends generation and career.
