Choi Soo-young, a member of Girls' Generation and actress, continues her non-stop activities.

Choi Soo-young recently announced the end of her long-term relationship with actor Jung Kyung-ho. A representative from both agencies stated, "The two have decided to part ways as lovers but remain good colleagues."

Since then, Choi Soo-young has shown no signs of slowing down. She is currently performing in the play 'The Merchant of Venice.' The play is a quintessential Shakespearean comedy and an intense courtroom drama. The story unfolds across two distinct worlds: 'Venice,' a city dominated by contracts, law, and money, and 'Belmont,' a space where love, choice, and romance exist. Beginning with themes of love and friendship, the narrative gradually expands into issues of law and mercy, ultimately guiding audiences to ask, "Whose justice is it?"

Choi Soo-young delivers a powerful performance as Portia, who turns the tide in court through wisdom and wit. On the 13th, she shared on her SNS, "First week of performances is over," adding, "Every time I perform, I feel like time is slipping away too quickly. Borrowing Portia's words, 'I wish I could attach a clock to time and slow its pace.'"

She continued, "I am grateful for the opportunity to share such precious moments with you all. With just over a month left in the run, I plan to savor every minute happily. See you on stage."

Additionally, Choi Soo-young is set to star in the upcoming August release of the film 'OK Madam 2.' She takes on the role of Anya, a captivating villain and leader of a criminal organization that terrorizes an ultra-luxury cruise ship, marking a new challenge for her.

Choi Soo-young explained, "There are many female villains, yet few stand out. When I first received the offer, I was incredibly happy and eager to create something unique. I contributed many ideas for costumes and wanted to highlight Anya's childlike side. While a purely scary or chilling villain is fine, I aimed to craft a female villain who embodies both charisma and humor."

Even after putting a period on her 14-year public relationship, Choi Soo-young's clock does not stop. As she continues her relentless activities across stage and screen, attention turns to her next move.
