Actress Jung Eun-chae addressed rumors claiming she comes from a wealthy family.
On the 2nd, a video titled "Your stories could be made into a drama" was released on the YouTube channel 'Yojongjaehyeong'. The video featured SBS's new drama 'Chaebol Detective 2' stars An Bo-hyun and Jung Eun-chae as guests.
That day, regarding her study abroad in the UK, Jung Eun-chae said, "I didn't plan to go; my parents told me to." She added, "The language barrier was too high, and at that time, there weren't many Asians around yet. I used to be very extroverted, always surrounded by friends since childhood, but after moving there, I became introverted."

She continued, "I had to survive by reading the room. My speech decreased, and I started drawing because it seemed unnecessary to speak if I could just draw well. That's why I majored in art."
She also clarified the rumors about her wealthy family background. She stated, "We studied while gradually downsizing our home. My father lived a truly ordinary working life, just like Manager Kim. It wasn't easy at all. When I started earning money myself, I thought, 'Wow, you must have worked so hard.'"
