'I Am SOLO' 28th Yeong-ja Prepares Clothing Store Following Divorce from Yeong-cheol—A Great Transformation

Yeong-ja from the 28th episode of 'I Am SOLO' is embarking on a new challenge, leaving the pain of divorce behind. Following the operation of her online shopping mall, she is expanding her business by preparing an offline store. Her excitement for a new start was evident in her hands-on approach, managing everything from interior construction to the preparation of signage and props. Attention is focused on what kind of entrepreneur she will become, as she previously announced her separation approximately six months after marrying Yeong-cheol.

On the 9th, Yeong-ja released a video on her social media (SNS) with the caption, "I am in the middle of interior work!! It opens on October 26th." She further teased the store opening, saying, "Once the signage, props, etc., are finished, I will let those curious about the decorating information know!! Please look forward to the 'after'!" The video, which captured the process of filling the space one by one before completion, revealed her determination toward this new challenge.

The released video shows Yeong-ja focusing on interior design ahead of opening her clothing store. She intends to expand her business, which previously sold products online, into an offline store. She is busy preparing for the opening, paying close attention to the interior, signage, and various props that will determine the store's atmosphere. Yeong-ja piqued the curiosity of her followers by stating she would share not only the before-and-after looks of the store but also information regarding the decorating process.

Yeong-ja's moves are also eye-catching compared to her time on 'I Am SOLO'. During the broadcast, she introduced herself as a pianist who runs a piano academy. Following her appearance on the show, she challenged herself to run an online shopping mall, and now she is broadening her field of activity by pushing for the opening of an offline store. As cases continue where participants known through the broadcast challenge private businesses and use them as a stepping stone for new activities, Yeong-ja is also seeking change in her own way.

The reason for the intense interest in this opening news also lies in her recently revealed personal history. Yeong-ja met Yeong-cheol during the 28th episode's "divorced" special of 'I Am SOLO', and they held an actual wedding after the broadcast. However, the two announced their divorce approximately six months after marriage and began walking separate paths. Since the connection that started on the show led to a real-life marriage, the news of their separation drew significant interest from viewers who had watched their relationship at the time.

Yeong-ja explained that when she announced the divorce, she had not filed a marriage registration. She also stated that since they had borne living expenses and economic matters separately during their time living together, there were no separate assets or monetary issues to settle. While the specific circumstances surrounding their breakup have not all been made public, Yeong-ja is continuing her new daily life after conveying her position.

The next step Yeong-ja has chosen after her divorce is opening a clothing store. Attention is focused on whether she will receive support as she focuses on her business and puts new plans into action after undergoing personal changes. It is also a matter of interest what kind of atmosphere the store, scheduled to open on October 26th, will have upon completion. Eyes are on what the before-and-after look of the interior promised by Yeong-ja and her first step into offline business will result in.
