Song Ji-eun Resumes Broadcasting Amid Husband Park Wi’s Ongoing Hiatus

Singer Song Ji-eun has resumed her broadcasting activities on a Christian program while her husband, YouTuber Park Wi, remains on hiatus following recent controversy. 

On September 14, Song Ji-eun appeared on CBS TV’s Saeropge Haseyo, where Deacon Jin Seong-ae shared the story of losing her eldest son at the age of 17. The episode was hosted by Joo Young-hoon, Song Ji-eun, and Lee Jung-soo. Song Ji-eun also appeared on the program as scheduled on September 7 and continued in her role as a host on the September 14 broadcast. However, it has not been confirmed whether the episode was recorded before or after the controversy involving Park Wi. 

During the broadcast, Jin Seong-ae became emotional while speaking about her late son, and Song Ji-eun also broke down in tears. Song Ji-eun thanked her for sharing such a difficult story, saying it felt as though “an angel had passed through this family” and left behind a precious and beautiful path that helped the family continue walking toward Jesus. 

She added that hearing the story made her hope that she, too, could leave behind “the fragrance of Jesus” in her family’s life and in the lives of others. 

Park Wi and Song Ji-eun married in October 2024.

Netizen Reactions

The sampled Nate News comments were largely negative, with users criticizing Song Ji-eun’s return to broadcasting amid the controversy surrounding her husband and reacting sarcastically to the religious language used during the program.

1. Tell her husband to love his neighbor first.

2. Hearing her talk, it really does seem like those two were made for each other ;;

3. Go reflect on yourself—and keep reflecting.

4. Crocodile tears.

5. She’s really something else too... Her husband is in the middle of all this controversy, and she’s out there doing broadcasts. Is her mental strength really that incredible?? Or are they both just that shameless?? This is the absolute height of shamelessness...

6. You’re making me not want anything to do with church, girl~ ㅋㅋ

7. After all that, her husband tried to take someone down by releasing CCTV footage, and the two of them even traveled overseas for expensive speaking engagements. In Kenya, a local pastor was pushing the wheelchair while they just stood there watching and commenting on how strong he was... “The fragrance of Jesus”??? Do you even have a conscience?

8. “The fragrance of Jesus”??? More like the smell of money!!!

9. What on earth was going through her head for her to end up with a guy like that?

10. Religion really is scary. People become so blindly devoted~
