Beloved Celebrity Couple Shock Fans With Heartbreaking Divorce Announcement
Renowned celebrities Lee Beom Soo and Lee Yoon Jin have made headlines with the announcement of their divorce, marking an end to their once-admired union. The news, released via an exclusive report from MNH Sports, follows months of speculation and rumors that swirled around the couple’s relationship status.
The journey towards this unfortunate conclusion began last year when Lee Yoon Jin took steps to initiate divorce mediation against Lee Beom Soo, signaling a definitive end to their marriage. Sources close to the couple disclosed that by mid-last year, Lee Yoon Jin had firmly decided on the divorce, a sentiment she echoed in a social media post last December, hinting at a new beginning by stating, “My first chapter has ended.”
Efforts towards a consensual separation were made, but the couple could not find common ground, leading Lee Yoon Jin to formally seek divorce mediation by the end of the year.
Lee Beom Soo and Lee Yoon Jin — who tied the knot in May 2010 and are parents to a son and a daughter — have opted to live apart amidst these proceedings. Lee Yoon Jin has moved to Bali, Indonesia, with their daughter, who is enrolled in an international school there, while their son remains in Seoul under Lee Beom Soo’s care.
Their marriage, once celebrated and even featured on KBS 2TV‘s The Return of Superman in 2016, began to show signs of strain publicly towards the end of last year. Lee Yoon Jin’s social media activities added fuel to the fire of divorce rumors, especially when she tagged Lee Beom Soo in a post declaring an end to her “first chapter” and shared a video message emphasizing self-respect and closure. The subsequent mutual unfollowing on social media and Lee Beom Soo’s deletion of his posts only heightened speculations.
Despite these public indicators, official statements regarding the divorce were scant until recently. Lee Beom Soo’s agency, Y One Entertainment, previously maintained privacy regarding the matter — stating the difficulty of commenting on the actor’s personal life.
As the divorce proceedings continue, many hope for a respectful and peaceful resolution for both parties and their children.
