The wives of comedian Jo Se-ho, former supermodel Jung Soo-ji, and actor Uhm Tae-wong, former ballerina Yoon Hye-jin, are drawing attention for their efforts to boost the spirits of their husbands amid controversy.

On the 11th, an Instagram account named "Jo Se-ho Exposed Account" was created, attracting public interest. The profile picture of the account featured Jo Se-ho’s face, and the description read, "This account is operated without Jo Se-ho’s consent. Facing account suspension crisis one day after creation…"

Over the two days of the 11th and 12th, the account owner posted more than seven videos, engaging in intense communication with netizens. The videos showed scenes from Jo Se-ho’s birthday party, Jo Se-ho returning home after going out, Jo Se-ho on a date, and Jo Se-ho playing guitar and singing. It also drew attention to footage of Jo Se-ho shedding tears while watching the wedding of his close friend Nam Chang-hee.

According to StarNews, the operator of the Instagram account revealing Jo Se-ho’s daily life was his wife, Jung Soo-ji. Jung Soo-ji stepped in to support her husband, who is taking a break from broadcasting due to privacy controversies, by making efforts to help the public perceive him as approachable again.

Jung Soo-ji posted captions such as, "I’m easily moved, but I get hurt even more easily," "My mental state deflates faster than beer foam," and "[Exclusive] Mr. Jo Se-ho, watching the wedding of his close friend Mr. Nam Chang-hee, finally turned red-eyed."

She also wrote, "Interest is focused on the exact cause of the tears, given that he himself is already married," showcasing her wit.

Jung Soo-ji’s creation of an SNS account related to Jo Se-ho sparked mixed reactions. Netizens were divided between responses like, "I was waiting for Jo Se-ho’s comeback," and, "Are you going to watch his comeback?" The SNS account surpassed 2,600 followers within two days of its creation.

Jo Se-ho was embroiled in the "organized crime involvement theory" last year amid suspicions that he had a close relationship with one member of an organized crime group. As a result, Jo Se-ho withdrew from programs he was appearing on, including tvN’s variety show "You Quiz on the Block" and KBS 2TV’s "1 Night 2 Days." He is currently the only cast member appearing in Netflix’s variety show "Doriver."

Yoon Hye-jin’s efforts to help Uhm Tae-wong make a comeback are also being revisited. After Uhm Tae-wong received a summary prosecution penalty of 1 million won for a past prostitution charge and paused his acting activities, Yoon Hye-jin openly shared her husband’s recent status through her YouTube channel and SNS, ensuring that the public did not forget Uhm Tae-wong’s presence.

In April last year, Yoon Hye-jin announced news of Uhm Tae-wong’s personal photo exhibition. She presented a bouquet to Uhm Tae-wong, calling him "Artist Uhm," and described one of his photos as having a "warm gaze looking at family."

Additionally, in July of that year, Yoon Hye-jin posted a verification photo of her packing a healthy lunchbox for Uhm Tae-wong, showcasing her unwavering affection.

Uhm Tae-wong made his comeback after about seven years through the film "I Kill You," directed by director Yoo Ha, in July last year.
