According to Yoo Hye Ri, at the time of her divorce, the actor plainly stated that the couple had broken up over personality differences but the truth was much more appalling.

Because I married a colleague, our lives and careers had become intertwined. That is why I said we were divorcing over personality issues. I’ve never revealed this to my family, colleagues, or even those who are close to me.

One day my ex-husband came to drink with my acquaintances. I’m not sure why he was so upset but he started gulping down alcohol. He then grabbed a chair and threw it at a woman who was just walking by. Everyone was shocked and tried to stop him.
