Oh Jung-yeon, who’s 41 and used to be an announcer, has been pretty open about her hopes for the future. On Channel A’s “Best Friend Documentary: Table for 4,” she talked about wanting to become a mom someday and mentioned that she’s frozen her eggs to keep her options open.
She shared her thoughts on having a child, saying, “I wonder how beautiful my child would be. As I get older, if I meet someone I love, I want to have a child. I’m curious about my genes, and I think I would love my child very much.”
Financial Independence and Career Focus
Oh Jung-yeon is also known for being really independent and financially savvy. Even though she owns a place in Sungsu-dong, she’s renting it out while putting her focus on investments. She said, “I graduated early from college and started working at the age of 22. I saved 70-80% of my salary.” She attributed her financial discipline to her strict parents, saying she wanted to be free and independent.
She emphasized, “I have to live independently, and I can’t rely on anyone else to support me,” adding that her Chinese zodiac sign, Rooster, really fits her personality. “I can’t hide anything, and everything is out in the open. They say I’m a man in a skirt.”
Passion for Motorcycles and Uncompromising Spirit
On top of her career and financial planning, Oh Jung-yeon has a strong passion for motorcycles. She owns four bikes and made it clear, “If a boyfriend told me not to ride, I wouldn’t listen.” This just shows how determined and independent she is.
Just a bit of background—Oh Jung-yeon was married to basketball star Seo Jang-hoon from 2009 to 2012.
Seo Jang-hoon, ex-husband of Oh Jung-yeon, has been pretty vocal about his desire to marry again. On February 27th, he appeared on Shin Dong-yup’s YouTube channel, ‘zzanbro,’ and got a lot of attention by discussing his plans for remarriage and having another child.
When the topic of his divorce came up, Seo Jang-hoon admitted, “At first, I understood and accepted it, but what scares me the most is a second divorce. There’s no excuse. From then on, I become the problem because people change.” He also talked about the pressure he feels around dating and the idea of remarrying.
He mentioned his hope to have a child, saying, “I’d like to have at least one child.” When Shin Dong-yup suggested, “Let’s freeze your sperm while it’s still active,” Seo Jang-hoon responded, “I’ll give it three more years. I’ll make a final decision within three years.”
Seo Jang-hoon also said, “If that doesn’t work out, it’s better to live alone. I think it would be a bit unfair to the child if I’m too old when they’re born.”
He added, “The most crucial issue is that I don’t think I’m suitable for living with someone. My lifestyle is more suited to living alone.”
