The video starts off showing Seo Yoo Jung celebrating her birthday with her YouTube production team. While sharing stories related to her birthday, though, the actress ended up creeping everyone out:
A long time ago, someone I was dating gave me a necklace—but it was made from one of his own teeth. I think it was a molar.

At the time, I think I actually liked it… But looking back now, it feels like he just didn’t want to buy a necklace. He drilled a hole through the tooth and made it into a necklace with a silver chain. It definitely didn’t look like his first time doing something like that.

And as if the gift itself wasn’t bad enough, the actress went on to explain that she didn’t get to keep the necklace in the end!
I dated him for a while, but we broke up a few days before Christmas. When Christmas came, I got a text around 8 PM saying, ‘Give me back the necklace made from my tooth.’ I thought that he was using that as an excuse to see me again. But at the time, I didn’t think that far—I just thought, ‘You want the necklace you gave me for Christmas back? That’s gross,’ so I sent it back by mail.

After hearing her story, the production staff asked, “Was it one of your celebrity exes?” in a show of curiosity. Seo responded with a playful “Shh!” and declined to comment further, heightening intrigue.
Seo Yoo Jung married a businessman in 2017, and the couple has one daughter. However, after separating in 2020, the actress revealed in 2023 that they were officially divorced.
