Seo Yu-ri Opens Up About Financial Struggles After Emotional AfreecaTV Broadcast

Seo Yu-ri Breaks Down on SOOP Broadcast

Renowned voice actress and broadcasting jockey (BJ) Seo Yu-ri made a heartfelt appearance on SOOP’s weekend live show on June 27. Known informally as the ‘Excel Broadcast,’ this show ranks participating BJs based on the number of digital donations received, fostering a competitive but celebratory atmosphere.

During the broadcast, Seo Yu-ri was visibly moved, shedding tears of gratitude after receiving a large number of digital gifts from viewers. Her emotional moment was crowned with a win in the competition, further highlighting her enduring popularity.

Post-Broadcast Reflections and Personal Disclosure

Shortly after the broadcast, Seo Yu-ri posted a candid message on her Instagram profile and SOOP community, opening up about her personal struggles. She asked fans and the public to view her without prejudice, explaining that financial burdens lingering from past relationships have not yet been fully resolved.

Seo revealed that although she was supposed to receive a settlement payment from her ex-husband, Choi Byung-gil PD, by the end of December last year, she has yet to receive any funds due to his bankruptcy filing. This development has significantly worsened her financial situation.

She emphasized her intention to take full responsibility, stating, “Although the debt was not of my making, I believe I hold some responsibility and will do my best to fulfill it without resorting to bankruptcy or rehabilitation procedures.”

Request for Warmth and Understanding

Seo Yu-ri pleaded with the public to refrain from spreading unverified or sensationalized information, adding that such rumors cause unnecessary harm not only to her but also to those around her. She assured her supporters of her continued dedication to her professional activities, including game dubbing and appearances on terrestrial TV programs.

In closing, Seo expressed her sincere gratitude for the encouragement she has received and asked fans to continue supporting her as she strives to overcome her challenges with resilience and integrity.
