Actress Hwang Jung-eum has left the worldly life.
On the 1st, a video titled "The day I escaped childcare and also lost my popularity" was posted on Hwang Jung-eum's YouTube channel.
That day, Hwang Jung-eum visited a charcoal-kiln sauna in Yangju and enjoyed her freedom.
Sitting on a wooden bench in the peaceful nature, she said, "I want to live in a place like this. From around my mid-50s, I want to live in the mountains where no one is around."
She continued, "I want to buy 10,000 pyeong of land and plant trees like crazy. If I drive down the road, a wonderful house will appear. I want to live there. A place with no one." She expressed her wish.

Afterward, Hwang Jung-eum enjoyed the sauna and continued her peaceful time by drinking sikhye and beer.
When the production team remarked, "You look the happiest among your recent appearances," Hwang Jung-eum smiled and replied, "People must be with nature. That is the best."
Hwang Jung-eum also confessed, "How else would I come here except for filming? I'm busy watching over my children and have so many things to do."
She added, "I wonder why I lived forgetting this. Happiness is really nothing special. (Usually) we only look at SNS, don't we? We only see who goes to which hotel, who wears what clothes, or who lives in which house. But I realized that this kind of happiness is truly important."
Meanwhile, Hwang Jung-eum married former professional golfer Lee Young-don in 2016 and has two sons. The couple submitted a divorce mediation application to the court four years after their marriage in September 2020 but reconciled in July 2021. However, in February 2024, three years after their reconciliation, it was revealed that they had filed for divorce.
Subsequently, in May last year, Hwang Jung-eum was indicted on charges of embezzling approximately 4.3 billion won from her one-person agency's funds and was sentenced to two years in prison with a four-year probation in the first trial. Since Hwang Jung-eum did not appeal the first-trial verdict, the sentence was finalized as is.
