In particular, Sooyoung attended the event with her father, who is visually impaired, adding meaning to the occasion. Over the past five years, she has consistently participated in the Eoulrim Marathon, working to improve awareness of visual impairment and to spread a culture of sharing.
This event also marked her first public update since news of her breakup with actor Jung Kyung-ho became known. Earlier, on the 10th, representatives for Sooyoung and Jung Kyung-ho stated, “We recently ended our romantic relationship and decided to remain good colleagues”.
The two had been openly dating since 2012 and were beloved as one of the entertainment industry's representative long-running couples. As they had consistently expressed their affection for each other for about 14 years, news of the breakup left many fans disappointed.
Nevertheless, Sooyoung drew attention by sharing her everyday life as usual without further comment, showing a bright demeanor.
