Ha Jooyeon, daughter of actress Ha Jaeyoung and former member of the group Jewelry, has shared an update about her current life as an office worker.
On May 15, a video titled "The Reason Why Jewelry's Ha Jooyeon Didn't Appear on 'Can We Be Strangers' with Seo Inyoung" was posted on the YouTube channel 'Hello Hansamyo.' In the video, Ha Jooyeon met with the production crew at a subway station and said, "I take the subway every day," adding, "I use the Climate Companion Card, and it's great because I get discounts."
Ha Jooyeon shared that she is currently working as a showroom staff member for a French kitchenware brand. She said, "I prepared for employment through part-time and job search sites," and added, "I really didn't have any photos to upload, so I just used my profile picture."
When asked about the difference in income compared to her time in Jewelry, she replied, "Since I was living with my family then, my family managed everything, so I don't know exactly how much I earned," and added, "As far as I know, I only received performance fees."
Ha Jooyeon mentioned that she never bought a luxury bag during her time as a celebrity, expressing some regret by saying, "I should have bought one back then." She also mentioned Seo Inyoung, who recently started her own YouTube channel, saying, "My sister did give me a pair of luxury shoes."
