Jung-sook from Season 15 of the SBS Plus and ENA show "I Am Solo" has announced that she will appear on a reality show for couples with her husband, who was previously embroiled in "rebound relationship" rumors, stating, "I want to face the controversy head-on."

Jung-sook recently shared updates about her life through her YouTube channel, revealing that she got married this past May.

She introduced herself by saying, "After appearing on 'I Am Solo' and 'I Am Solo: Love Forever' as Jung-sook from Season 15, there was a lot of controversy. There was an incident where I met a malicious commenter in person, and although I am married now, there were also controversies surrounding my husband, including issues involving his ex-girlfriend."

Early last year, Jung-sook announced her engagement, stating she had decided to marry her fiancé after just two months of dating. However, the situation sparked controversy when an ex-girlfriend appeared and raised "rebound relationship" allegations. Jung-sook proceeded with the marriage as planned and emphasized that she and her husband will appear on a couple-oriented program airing on KBS this coming August, where they will reveal his face.

She explained, "My husband also thought about it a lot. He said he decided to go on the show with the mindset of facing the past controversies head-on." Regarding her new cosmetics business, she also expressed her determination for this new challenge, saying, "Whether it fails or succeeds, I want to show you everything without holding anything back."
