As the former girlfriend of singer and actor Kim Hyun-jung has begun her entertainment career under the stage name "Siu" (SEEU), attention is being drawn to her.

According to AtStyle on the 22nd, Siu is currently active as a creator affiliated with the TikTok live agency "Lightning Central."

It was reported that Siu has opened a TikTok account and is conducting live broadcasts, and plans to expand her activity areas into various fields such as beauty, health, and variety entertainment in the future.

Siu is Kim Hyun-jung's former lover with whom she dated for about three years starting from 2012. The two experienced conflicts during their relationship, and legal disputes began when Siu filed a complaint against Kim Hyun-jung on charges of assault and injury in 2014. At the time, Kim Hyun-jung expressed his official intent to apologize, and it was reported that he privately delivered a settlement amount of 600 million won to Siu. The two later reconciled as well.

However, conflicts flared up again. In 2015, Siu filed a damages claim lawsuit of approximately 1.6 billion won, claiming she suffered damages such as miscarriage and abortion due to Kim Hyun-jung's assault. Kim Hyun-jung also filed a counter-suit against Siu and accused her of extortion, fraud, false accusation, and defamation, standing firm in opposition.

The legal battle between the two led to civil and criminal trials. In 2016, the first-instance civil court determined that Siu had damaged Kim Hyun-jung's reputation through interviews and ruled that she should pay 100 million won in compensation for mental anguish. The same judgment was made on appeal, and the ruling was finalized when the Supreme Court dismissed both parties' appeals in 2020.

In the criminal trial, a partial guilty verdict was rendered against Siu regarding the charge of attempted fraud. However, a judgment was issued to the effect that her claim of miscarriage due to Kim Hyun-jung's assault could not be clearly seen as a lie, and the charge of defamation by publication was confirmed as not guilty.

Amid this, Siu gave birth to Kim Hyun-jung's son in September 2015. Suspicions were raised regarding paternity, but it was later confirmed that he was Kim Hyun-jung's biological child. It is known that Siu has been raising her son since then.

Meanwhile, Kim Hyun-jung married a non-celebrity woman who was not Siu in 2022 and had a son the same year.
