Jung Woo-sung talks about E Jiah relationship

Actor Jung Woo-sung told all about his short love affair with E Jiah during taping of the return episodes of Kang Ho-dong’s “Knee-drop Guru.”

In a two-part series which will begin on Nov. 29, Jung apparently said he knew well in advance that his girlfriend of last year was once married to rocker Seo Taiji.

A source close to E confirmed with Yonhap on Nov. 28 that it was indeed true that Jung knew of the whole ordeal before the public announcement about E and Seo’s marriage from 10 years ago broke for the first time last year.

“She told Jung Woo-sung as soon as they began dating and he knew all about it,” said the source.

Although Jung and E also tried to keep their relationship a secret, when a picture of the two on a trip to Paris surfaced online early last year, everyone found out.

Then another bombshell hit the entertainment world in April when the fact that E and Seo tied the knot 15 years ago in the United States. The two filed for divorce in L.A back in 2006.

When Jung and E broke up short after the secret marriage news, the public just assumed Jung couldn’t handle the truth.
