Yoon Young-kyung, the wife of broadcaster Nam Chang-hee, announced that she has resigned after completing six years as a public official.

On the 1st, Yoon shared several photos documenting her resignation.

Yoon stated, "I am leaving for a new world, carrying only good memories with me." She then posted a photo of a cake to commemorate her departure, captioning it, "A touching cake prepared by Okppa [her husband's nickname]."

Yoon had been working as a chief clerk in the Public Relations Division of the Seoul Dongdaemun District Office and also appeared on the YouTube channel 'Dongdaemun District Office The original.' Nam Chang-hee's agency, TN Entertainment, stated, "Yoon Young-kyung has stepped away from the entertainment industry to live her life as an office worker."

A graduate of Dongduk Women's University's Broadcasting and Entertainment department, Yoon gained public recognition in 2013 when she was selected as a "Sun" (a top-tier title) at the 83rd National Chunhyang Beauty Pageant. She subsequently appeared in various works, including the film 'Ode to My Father' and the dramas 'Mr. Goo's Beautiful Wife' and 'Hwajeong.' In particular, Yoon caught viewers' attention as 'Han River IU' on the special episode "Let's Get Hong-chul Married" of MBC's 'Infinite Challenge' in 2014. She drew attention for her cute appearance resembling that of singer-actress IU.

Previously, Yoon and Nam Chang-hee held their wedding ceremony at the Dynasty Hall of the Shilla Hotel in Jangchung-dong, Jung-gu, Seoul, on February 22. Born in 1991, Yoon is nine years older than Nam, who was born in 1982.

Nam and Yoon tied the knot after a romance of about four and a half years. Nam appeared on the YouTube channel 'Study King Real Genius Hong Jin-kyung' and shared his love story with Yoon, saying, "When we first met, (my wife) felt burdened by it." He notably revealed that his close friend of the same age, Jo Se-ho, played a bridge role between the two.
