As the 28th batch participant Young-ja officially acknowledged her breakup with Young-cheol, Young-cheol of the same batch has now removed all traces of Young-ja.
As of the 4th, Young-cheol deleted photos featuring Young-ja from his SNS and unfollowed her account.
On the 31st, Young-ja began by saying, "Although I am not a celebrity or public figure, I have long pondered whether it was appropriate to post about my personal matters in this way. However, I felt it was proper to inform those who have cared for and worried about me about the current situation."
She continued, "We have ended our relationship and parted ways," directly announcing the breakup.
Young-ja explained, "We never filed a marriage registration, and during our time together, we each bore our own living and financial expenses, so there are no assets or monetary issues requiring separate settlement. All personal arrangements and item transfers following the end of our relationship have also been completed."
She added, "I will not elaborate on the process or reasons for our breakup. Moving forward, I will focus more on my present and future life than on past events and greet everyone with a better image."
Earlier, rumors of divorce between Young-ja and Young-cheol surfaced after Young-ja deleted or made all photos of Young-cheol private on her SNS.
Young-ja removed not only date photos taken with Young-cheol but also wedding photos and pre-wedding shoot images posted in January. She has now unfollowed Young-cheol's SNS account.
In contrast, Young-cheol continues to keep all photos of Young-ja on his SNS and maintains the follow status (friend connection). Notably, he pinned a date photo with Young-ja at the top of his feed, continuing to display his affection.

Especially since they had recently shared photos of themselves dining out together, their sudden change in feelings drew significant attention. At the time, Young-cheol posted alongside the dining photo: "My wife came down to Daejeon and is at home. Although not often, we went out for dinner to get some fresh air. If this happiness is to last forever, shouldn't I do my best? I love my wife."
Subsequently, on the 20th, Young-ja shared photos of pizza and pasta, stating, "I ordered a lot of pizza and pasta by myself today. My ears were ringing nonstop. I had to eat. Tomorrow will be pancakes," repeatedly showing that she was spending her days alone.
Young-ja and Young-cheol met through the 28th batch special edition of 'I Am Single' focused on divorced individuals, developed into a romantic relationship, and held their wedding ceremony on January 17. At the time, Young-ja shared her thoughts on the marriage: "We had a period of waiting and tears that no one else could walk through for us. Rather than saying we will live well together, we decided to become husband and wife with a promise to stay together until the end."

About a month after remarrying, they appeared on tvN STORY's 'Lee Ho-seon Counseling Office,' confessing their conflicts and sparking discussion. The two mentioned a miscarriage due to threatened abortion and a breakup notification they experienced around last autumn while meeting with Lee Ho-seon.
Regarding this, Young-cheol recalled: "When we were dating, I suddenly heard the news of pregnancy. I was happy but couldn't easily express my feelings for fear of becoming a burden. I told her, 'I am very happy, but I will respect your thoughts and decision.'"
Eventually, after Young-ja decided not to carry the baby to term, she cried uncontrollably. Young-cheol revealed, "She was crying so hard that when I asked why, she said, 'Because you didn't give me certainty, I feel anxious.' In the end, we decided to have the baby no matter what."
Responding to this, Young-ja expressed her anxiety at the time: "It would have been enough if he had felt that way from the beginning. If he truly liked me and gave me certainty, that would have sufficed. I was anxious about potentially raising the child alone if I decided to have the baby, so I notified him of the breakup."
