Group Jekskis member Eun Ji-won has announced his remarriage 13 years after his divorce, with reports saying his fiancée is a stylist nine years his junior.
Eun Ji-won’s agency YG Entertainment said on the 12th to OSEN, "Eun Ji-won recently took wedding photos and plans to hold a quiet ceremony with close relatives sometime this year," adding, "We would appreciate your warm gaze on this matter."
In addition, a media outlet reported that Eun Ji-won's fiancée is nine years younger and works as a stylist. According to the report, they met at work and had known each other as acquaintances for a long time before developing into a romantic relationship and deciding to marry.
As a result, Eun Ji-won is actively preparing for his remarriage, having recently taken wedding photos with his girlfriend. The two are expected to marry within the year.
Previously, Eun Ji-won mentioned his remarriage plans on various programs. In July of last year, he appeared on Lee Kyung-kyu's YouTube channel and said, "I originally thought I wouldn’t get married, but now I think I should somehow." He explained that after having been married once, he had no thoughts of marriage at all but as he gets older and with his mother having passed after his father, the thought of remarriage has grown.
Additionally, when asked by other Jekskis members about his thoughts on remarriage, Eun Ji-won responded, "I guess I have to. Otherwise, I might die alone. If I collapse, someone has to call 119," eliciting laughter.
This has led to speculations about Eun Ji-won's remarriage, and in fact, he has been inundated with congratulations since making the announcement.
Meanwhile, Eun Ji-won, who debuted with Jekskis in 1997, married a female judo athlete two years older than him in April 2010 in Hawaii, but they divorced by mutual consent after two years.
