SBS Plus and ENA's "I Am Single" 28th Batch member Yeong-ja shared recent photos of herself in a bikini following her breakup with Yeong-cheol.

On the 4th, 28th Batch member Yeong-ja went on a two-day trip to Jeju Island for filming and socializing, posting several selfies taken while wearing a bikini.

Earlier, 28th Batch member Yeong-ja also attended a housewarming gathering with her fellow batch members alone. On the 2nd, 28th Batch member Ok-soon posted, "Chatting until dawn. Feels like I've returned to Solo Nation," along with a message saying, "Thank you to the older sisters and brothers who came all the way from Paju + NaSol." She shared videos and photos of the housewarming event. The posts included 28th Batch members Sang-cheol and Jeong-sook's family, as well as Yeong-sook and Yeong-ja, who attended the housewarming party hosted by the couple Yeong-ho and Ok-soon.

Previously, rumors of a divorce between 28th Batch members Yeong-ja and Yeong-cheol surfaced after Yeong-ja deleted or made all photos of Yeong-cheol private on her SNS.

Yeong-ja removed not only dating photos with Yeong-cheol but also wedding photos and pre-wedding shoot images posted in January. Additionally, she has since unfollowed Yeong-cheol's SNS account.

In contrast, Yeong-cheol continues to keep all photos of Yeong-ja on his SNS and maintains the follow status. Notably, he has pinned a dating photo with Yeong-ja at the top of his feed, continuing to display his affection.

On the 31st, 28th Batch member Yeong-ja began by saying, "Although I am not a celebrity or public figure, I have long pondered whether it was appropriate to post such a message about my personal life." She added, "However, I felt it was only 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.

28th Batch member Yeong-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 to settle separately." She further stated, "All personal arrangements and item transfers following the end of our relationship have already 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."

Yeong-ja and Yeong-cheol met through the 28th batch special episode of "I Am Single" focused on divorced individuals, developed into a romantic relationship, and held their wedding ceremony on January 17. At the time, Yeong-ja shared her thoughts on the marriage: "We had a long period of waiting and tears that no one else could walk with us. Rather than promising to live well together, we decided to become husband and wife by committing to stay together until the end."

About a month after remarrying, the couple appeared on tvN STORY's "Lee Ho-seon Counseling Office," confessing their conflicts and sparking widespread discussion. They mentioned experiencing a miscarriage in late last year and the subsequent breakup announcement.

Regarding this, Yeong-cheol recalled, "When we were dating, I suddenly heard the news of Yeong-ja's pregnancy. I was happy but couldn't easily express my feelings for fear of burdening her. I told her, 'I am very happy, but I will respect your thoughts and decision.'"

Ultimately, Yeong-ja decided not to give birth to the baby in her womb and cried uncontrollably. Yeong-cheol revealed, "She was crying so hard that when I asked why, she said, 'Because you didn't give me confidence, I felt anxious.' In the end, we decided to have the child."

Responding to this, Yeong-ja expressed her anxiety at the time: "It would have been enough if he had felt that way from the beginning. If he had genuinely loved me and given me confidence, that would have sufficed. I was afraid that if I decided to have the baby, I might end up raising it alone, which is why I announced the breakup."
