Singer Jang Yoon-jung revealed her father in a recent video.
On September 24, Jang Yoon-jung posted a video titled 'Living as Jang Yoon-jung's Father' on her YouTube channel 'Jang Factory Jang Yoon-jung.'
Before meeting her father, she expressed, "I am meeting a guest who is closest to me, but I feel a bit uncomfortable and worried. He is very reluctant to show his face on camera. However, I promised to treat him to something delicious."
She added, "After getting married, I refer to him as my father, but I still just call him 'Dad.'"
Jang Yoon-jung's father humorously remarked, "I have never said, 'I am Jang Yoon-jung's father' in public," and shared a story about fans recognizing him and asking for photos, saying, "I told them I was a member of her fan club and took pictures with them."
He also mentioned that if he could return to his 30s, he would discover his daughter's talents, stating, "If I were in my 30s, I would do everything in my power to find out what you are good at. I regret not being able to do that for Jang Yoon-jung."
Meanwhile, Jang Yoon-jung's mother was sentenced to prison for defrauding an acquaintance of approximately 30 million won.
According to a report by Yonhap News on October 10, the Seoul Eastern District Court sentenced a man, identified as Mr. Yuk, to 10 months in prison for fraud.
Judge Seo Beom-jun stated, "The defendant has admitted to the crime and, based on the victim's testimony and the defendant's account transaction history, all charges are found to be guilty. Considering the method and outcome of the crime, the nature of the offense is poor, and the victim has not been compensated."
Mr. Yuk is accused of receiving 31 million won from an acquaintance under the pretense of investment, mentioning his famous singer daughter, Jang Yoon-jung, between September 2024 and August of the following year.
He deceived the victim by claiming that celebrities were investing and earning significant profits.
The court took into account that Mr. Yuk had previously served time for failing to repay over 400 million won borrowed from an acquaintance in 2018 and had recently received a summary order for fraud.
However, it was noted that Mr. Yuk's acknowledgment of his crime and his poor health were considered in the sentencing.
