Jung Jiwoo, a prominent YouTuber, business owner, and fashion influencer, is fed up with the incessant conjecture around her marriage and personal life. On August 4, she resorted to Instagram to call out a netizen for making a harsh comment about a reported pregnancy. Jiwoo expressed displeasure, querying why people are so interested in an unconfirmed pregnancy and, worse, accusing her of a miscarriage that she never reported. She is the older sister of BTS' J-Hope and starred on Netflix's reality show The Influencer in 2024. 

Jung Jiwoo slams trolls for constantly questioning her


In response to the comment saying, "Aren't you pregnant?" Or did you lose the baby? There is no bump, and you are wearing tight clothes and exercising (tear emoji)". She seemed to have lost her cool. She called out the invasive question in frustration at the seemingly never-ending questioning about her plans for a baby. Jung Jiwoo said, "Was about to reply, but the comment disappeared," implying that commenters were hastily removing their cruel words. She covered the person's username and profile image. 



"We're trying for a baby, but there's nothing to share yet," she stated, revealing her desire to become pregnant. However, she was clear about the intrusive questions that people appeared to be asking her.  “I’m honestly shocked that someone I don’t even know could ask such a personal and inappropriate question about our private life. Even my close friends wouldn’t go there.”

She quickly ended the dispute, stating that she had never claimed to be pregnant, had not lost any babies, and had not gone drinking, contrary to what the person in the comment stated. Jung Jiwoo explained why she chose to speak now, saying, "I've been ignoring it since it's so far from the truth, but it's getting out of control. "Please show some respect."
