Following the announcement that Go Ji-yong, a former member of the group Sechs Kies, has divorced family medicine specialist Heo Yang-im, it is reported that custody of their son belongs to Heo Yang-im.

A representative for Go Ji-yong told StarNews on the 29th that Heo Yang-im holds custody of their son, Seung-jae.

On this day, Go Ji-yong directly announced his divorce on his SNS, stating, "I divorced my wife two years ago."

He further explained that the reason he had not publicly disclosed the divorce was due to his son Seung-jae, saying, "I wanted to protect him so he could fully accept the situation and grow up stably."

Go Ji-yong added, "The decision to divorce was made out of mutual respect for each other's paths and as adults fulfilling our responsibilities," and conveyed that "Seung-jae understands and is getting along well with his mother and father's new relationship."

He continued, "As a father, I will do my best. Although we have parted ways as husband and wife, we are supporting each other and getting along well."

In this context, a letter recently revealed by Heo Yang-im from her son Seung-jae has once again drawn attention. The letter contained the following message: "Mom, I'm doing well in New Zealand. Please take care of yourself, eat well alone, and don't overwork at the hospital. Thank you for sending me to ski camp. Next time, let's come together just the two of us. I'll finish my training and return safely."

In response, Heo Yang-im expressed her heartfelt feelings, saying, "I was moved by his words thanking me for sending him to ski camp. Please don't get hurt, eat well, sleep well, and come back," adding, "Mom will also be here guarding our place as the two of us."

In the letter, Seung-jae emphasized "just the two of us with Mom," while Heo Yang-im replied with "our place as the two of us," revealing their special affection for each other.

Meanwhile, Go Ji-yong married family medicine specialist Heo Yang-im in 2013 and had a son named Seung-jae, born in 2014. The couple ended their 11-year marriage with their divorce in 2024.
