<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n[EPN Enpinow reporter Go Nari] Ji Ye-eun is drawing attention after explaining why she quit drinking and how it has reshaped her daily life.<\/p>\n
On the 22nd, Ji Ye-eun said in a video on the channel Unofficial Schedule that she has been sober for about a year. When someone asked if she missed drinking, she replied plainly, “I don’t drink anymore.”<\/p>\n
She said health concerns helped prompt the decision and that, without any dramatic turning point, she gradually stopped craving alcohol. She added that she had been more attracted to the social atmosphere of drinking occasions than to the alcohol itself, and over time she naturally distanced herself from drinking.<\/p>\n
Ji Ye-eun drew further attention when news of her relationship with choreographer Bata became public. Their agencies confirmed the pair are dating and said they have mutual feelings for each other.<\/p>\n
Bata rose to prominence as leader of WeDemBoyz on Mnet’s Street Man Fighter in 2022, where the group finished as runners-up.<\/p>\n
Ji Ye-eun made her acting debut in the 2017 web drama How To and has since appeared in a variety of dramas and variety shows. In 2022 she joined Coupang Play’s SNL Korea and earned praise for her distinctive performances; more recently, she has shown a warm, approachable side on SBS’s Running Man.<\/p>\n
