"Famous YouTuber Appeals: 'Suffering from Fencing Club Due to Nam Hyun-hee and Jeon Cheong-jo, Marriage Also Broken'"
"Fencing Industry Hit Because of Nam Hyunhee"
A YouTuber has voiced concerns that the fencing club run by her boyfriend has fallen into financial difficulties due to a fraud scandal involving former national fencing representative Nam Hyun-hee and Jeon Cheong-jo.
Seong Ju-ha, who runs the YouTube channel ‘Suljuha’ with about 120,000 subscribers, released a video on the 19th stating that her "marriage plans with her boyfriend have fallen through."
On that day, Seong visited a fencing club operated by an acquaintance, A. Seong lamented, "Of all places, it’s in Songpa-gu. Right next to it is Signiel, where Jeon Cheong-jo lived. It’s really close. This industry is very small."
In response, A said, "It’s awkward. The industry is so small that people know each other indirectly. The fencing club with issues (Nam’s) isn’t that far away either," adding, "When I go back and forth picking up the kids, some passing men have asked, ‘Isn’t this that club?’"
Seong then revealed, "Actually, the person running that fencing club is my boyfriend. So I’m feeling firsthand how tough the fencing world is right now."
She continued, "After my boyfriend retired as an athlete, he carefully saved the money he earned as a player and took out loans to open the fencing club, which just celebrated its first anniversary a month ago," adding, "We thought it was entering a stable phase, but then this issue broke out and suddenly inquiry calls stopped. The image has also worsened."
She said, "Who would make inquiries? It’s even in Songpa-gu, right in front of (Nam Hyun-hee’s fencing club). He started his first business trying to live diligently, but because of an influential person’s issue, not his own fault, my boyfriend is feeling crushed. All I can do is support him."
Seong also raised her voice as a victim herself. She said, "I was dating my boyfriend with marriage in mind, and we were talking about getting married next year," adding, "But if things are unstable because of work, it’s hard to build a family. The word ‘marriage’ disappeared. I became an involuntary single woman."
She further expressed frustration, saying, "It’s a huge disappointment that our future is changing because of an unrelated issue," and "Jeon Cheong-jo has married a man and then a woman, but I can’t even do this once, which is frustrating."
Finally, Seong showed affection toward her boyfriend, saying, "Can’t I support you alone? It’s a small ring, but I’ll make sure you don’t have to worry about food. Marry my sister. She can take responsibility for you."
