Following former J-TLVS member Ko Ji-yong, comedian Kim In-seok has also publicly disclosed his divorce. Both men revealed that they ended their marriages approximately two years ago, drawing attention to the different reasons behind why they had not shared the news until now.

Kim In-seok directly conveyed the news of his divorce through his personal social media account on the 9th. Kim married Angela Park, a former Miss Korea, in 2014 and has two sons.

He stated, "About two years ago, I came to accept the decision to end our bond as a couple and go our separate ways." He added, "Although our relationship as a couple has ended here, we will continue to do our best for our children without change and be good parents together."

He also explained why he had delayed announcing the divorce. Kim said, "I have thought a lot about how to convey this story," adding, "It took me time to accept this reality and settle my mind. That is why I am only now telling you."

He further stated, "There were difficult times, but now I want to overcome that period well and try to start anew," expressing his intention to meet the public with an even better image going forward. He also expressed his apologies for not being able to inform close acquaintances in advance.

Voices of support for him followed. Comedians Hong Yun-hwa, Heo Anna, and Son Hyun-soo, along with singer Nabi, left comments such as "We support you" and "You have worked hard."

Previously, Ko Ji-yong also drew attention by publicly disclosing his divorce late. Ko married Heo Yang-im, a specialist in family medicine, in 2013 and has a son named Seung-jae. However, he recently revealed that they had divorced about two years ago.

Ko stated on his personal social media account last July, "I divorced my wife two years ago." He cited his son's stable growth as the reason for not disclosing the divorce earlier. The intent was to carefully consider the timing of the announcement so that the child could accept the situation and grow up stably.

He explained, "I wanted to protect my son Seung-jae so that he could fully accept the situation and grow up stably. The divorce was a decision made to respect each other's paths and fulfill our responsibilities as adults." He added, "Seung-jae understands the new relationship between his mother and father and is doing well."

However, it is known that Ko Ji-yong has been experiencing conflicts with his ex-wife Heo Yang-im over child support and visitation rights shortly after disclosing the divorce. Currently, the two are engaged in legal disputes over these issues.
