With this, the two have gone their separate ways 16 years after marrying in 2010.
Lee Yoon Jin and Lee Beom Soo received much love for sharing their family life with their two children on KBS’s The Return of Superman. However, their divorce process was far from smooth. After revealing in March 2024 that they were undergoing divorce mediation, Lee Yoon Jin continued to post revelations on social media, citing financial difficulties, conflict with her mother-in-law, and the avoidance of an agreed separation, exposing the deepening rift between them.
While the divorce lawsuit was ongoing, Lee Yoon Jin appeared on TV Chosun’s Now I’m Alone, where she shared her daily life with her daughter. She also tearfully revealed that she was unable to see her son, who lives with Lee Beom Soo, due to the lack of visitation rights.
As a result, Lee Beom Soo has now gone through two divorces.
He first married a college classmate in 2003, but the marriage ended just five months later, in January of the following year, shocking the public. At the time, conflict between his wife and mother was reported as the reason for the divorce, and his efforts to protect the marriage drew attention.
Although he actively denied rumors of discord with his former wife, he ultimately failed to resolve the conflict. It later emerged that the couple had no children and had never officially registered their marriage, so there were no legal issues with the family registry.
