Former S.E.S. member Shoo revealed on the July 4 broadcast of MBN's 'Dongchimi' that she has been separated from her husband, former basketball player Im Hyo Sung, for four years. She clarified that they chose separation over divorce so she could live her own life more comfortably.
Shoo shared a funny but practical reason for the split: a lack of space. When their oldest son entered middle school, he needed his own room separate from his twin sisters, and their three pet parrots also needed a room. Taking advantage of her husband being away on a trip, she immediately called movers, cleared out his room, and gave it to her son. She also admitted that her husband's nagging caused stress, and she did not want their children to see them fighting. As a sensitive sleeper, living completely apart rather than just using separate bedrooms was the best solution.
Despite the separation, her husband still lives in the same neighborhood. They maintain a great relationship, fulfilling their duties as parents by meeting on weekends for barbecues or family trips. Shoo expressed high satisfaction with this arrangement, sharing that living apart has actually improved their marriage. She jokingly added that as a huge fan of actor Kim Nam Gil, sometimes her husband's back even reminds her of the actor, making her feel like they are dating all over again.
