Seo In Young was previously married to a non-celebrity businessman in 2023, after five months of dating, but announced her divorce about a year later in 2024. At the time, her agency stated that the divorce had been finalized by mutual agreement and that there were no issues, such as fault, in the process.
Fast forward to 2026, two years after the divorce, Seo In Young revealed on her YouTube channel that she is seeing someone. With news of her getting married again to her current boyfriend, some netizens commented that it felt quick, given that her divorce was still relatively recent. Others felt differently, pointing out that she is free to make her own choices and that there is no required waiting period after divorce.

Several fans also defended Seo In Young against criticism, arguing that remarriage should not be treated as something controversial. Many emphasized that she has never presented herself as opposed to dating or marriage, and that her personal life should be respected as long as she is happy.
- She might not have gotten a lot of blessings for her first marriage because she wasn’t in a good spot, but now she can receive lots of congratulations. Congrats, congrats.
- If she even has the slightest thought of having a child, it makes sense to do it quickly. She’s already in her early 40s.
- Aigoo, I hope she chose well this time.
- I see…
- Already?? Since it’s a second marriage, I feel like it’d be better to take things slowly and carefully first…
- She said she wasn’t thinking about having kids, and right now her momentum is building and she’s getting ads too. Even if she doesn’t get married, she can still date good men, so the timing and choice feel a little disappointing…
- Congrats!!!
- She definitely cannot survive without a man in her life… But at the same time, she knows what she’s doing in a relationship and she can make good content out of her dating stories. That’s just her vibe now.
- Everyone around Seo In Young is married and living happily, so she could dream of getting married again too. Just because she doesn’t want a single life doesn’t mean that’s worse.
- But looking at Seo In Young’s career direction, maybe she’ll reveal the wedding process and her husband too? Choosing the wedding dress, furniture… and maybe if she has a child, pregnancy prep, childbirth, parenting, all of that could become content.
- Congratulations.
- It’s not like people only like Seo In Young because she’s single. And TBH, she’s not a super popular celebrity right now, and she always wanted to get married and build a family, so if she meets a good person quickly, that’s fine.
- I hope she has a happy married life.
Overall, the response was mixed but heavily filled with messages of support. Many fans simply wished Seo In Young well in her new chapter, hoping that she has found someone good and that her second marriage will be a happy one!
